All you have to do is walk to the next pit and say "Hello". Guaranteed that you will have someone to talk to. If they need to go out on the track just go to the next pit and repeat. You will not run out of people to talk to. I promise. If all else fails just look for the old GSXR and say hey. I can't stop talking so you should be set

Who was the guy that looped it going into T1 just before lunch? I gave you copies of the videos, but this is the edited version. I would be happy to burn it and send it to you...

The Gixxer's OK
Hey Sportrider,
I took care of the Gixixer6 and it took good care of me. No loops or off road excursions for me on Saturday. Had a big time though it was interesting being on a new bike and riding a new track for me. By the end of the day I was feeling pretty good and picking up the pace. The first few times coming in to turn 1 had me a little excited though!:wow:

Good to hear. I wasn't a bit worried. . ..

That is most definately mutual. Just after I posted my fastest lap was when I touched my brake pedal down and levered my ass right over the curb though! Spooked me a bit! You can tell it pretty good in the videos...
Thanks for showing me some better lines and hope to see you on the track again soon!
aw, sh*t. Tell Russ I hope he's doing ok.
no problem with the video - just me being bored and lacking some motorcyle motivation over here. just found out last night that my company is pulling me back for a month to cover a guy that has some personal issues. might be able to make the US Desmo track day in Oct if there are any spots left!
s/f,
Tony

There are spots left. I just got my confirmation a couple days ago for the 18th. I am doing VIR full on the 20th as well. The economy is pretty much ensuring that none of these track days are selling out lately. Last I heard from Jim (Which was Monday) he still had slots in all three groups.
Next month will probably be the end of my track excursions for a while as well. Think I am going to take a break for a while.

Really because of my knee. I went down this past Friday on my DR and really aggrivated it, and it makes me wonder if I need to be risking it on the track. Not so sure if I want to do that any more. No, wait, I WANT to, and I love riding on the track, but it is getting to the point where I am starting to think of the consequences of a simple get off that could have serious consequences due to an already weakened knee.
We are also in the market for another bike right now and would rather put the funds towards that. Track can wait.
