So I won a couple auctions for some cheap track days...5-25 & 5-26.

What I am proposing is that if any one of you guys wanted to venture out on the track and learn a few things, I would be willing to part with one of them for cheap $$$.

You pay what I paid which is Basically 1/2 the price of a normal day. I will still be there either way as I have some "Banked" days with them anyways that I can cash in.

Just seeing if I could entice any of ya to come out and play, I GUARANTEE it will be the most fun you ever had on 2 wheels and you will walk away with a crap load of knowledge.

I could possibly help with transportation of your bike & gear, My truck is a little small but it should be able to pull 2 bikes and everything else.

All you need bike wise is a hose clamp around the oil filter.

Gear wise, riding pants, jacket, boots, gauntlet gloves, & a helmet. I could possibly get you something on the gear list if you needed to use it, but it would be a you break it you pay for it to be fixed deal.

Great deal if you ever wanted to try it, you WONT find them this cheap anywhere. I got lucky on these.

I wont be offering these anywhere else, I just like to see the guys I'm riding with progress in there abilities and ride a safer ride out there.

If you never been you will be in the beginner group, there will be lots of guys that never been so you wont be alone. They will take you out on the track and will be you control riders for the day. they will teach you the line, how to enter & exit corners, Body position and sooooo much more. you be on the track for 20 minutes & then in a class room learning corner info....Trust me you will be over whelmed.

This is where the 2nd day becomes icing on the cake if you like it, you get out on the track right away and practice everything you learned the day before. It all starts to make sense and things just start to click. You still get all the classroom time like the other day, so you can get the little things down that you missed, you just don't "Need" to stay with the instructors like you did the first day....

Come on Jeff...Pull the trigger my man!!!

I don't know about you, but I'll be at the King St. Cafe (390 King St, to be exact) in Franklin at 9. I've googled up about 60 miles of stuff to the Bean, Then another 75-ish back to Bellingham. It's an untested route, so follow at your own risk; I'll be GPSing it.

Jim- Your boy is gonna be trouble! But who's the creepy old fart in the hoodie? You may want to keep him away from people like that.

I smiled...

1:24.4 Was a 1:26.6

I'm gonna give it a whirl with the HW guys next round...Giggity


I'll get to a report when I have a couple free minutes.. It will be posted up top.

crappy video but, it was kinda funny to watch. I am the last one getting sprayed. For those that have been sprayed you know it is a lot harder to function than it looks.

I have been through a gas chamber at least a couple dozen times. I would do it again several times before wanting to get OC sprayed.
