Fun & Hot. The fella on the Ducati was easy to follow once I adjusted my braking points.

Very cool. I'll bet people were surprised to see a Buell on the course.

I'm always the only one with a Buell. Peeps comment how fast the bike is. Like any bike once you get them rolling there all fast. I followed that fella on the Ducati for 3 sessions. Once I got by him, adios. His braking points were much sooner than mine. He would leave me on the long straights and I would catch him during braking. You never want to early apex a turn at this track. I did on the last turn leading to the front straight which is flat in 5th. I ended up in the weeds at 80mph. Going back on the 28th.

Heading that way in the morning bright and early. It's a 3 hr. drive.

Packing this evening when it cools off a bit. New rubber, front rotor and pads. Weather forecast is excellent with a high of 100. I want a Whiskey so bad but, I know better.

So cool! I'm going to get to do my first track day ever at Thunderhill Sept 8. Can't wait!

East or West?

East or West?

I'll be there Sun Sept 8 on the West track. Any chance you'll be there? Would be fun to see a Buell in action.
I'm just taking my old Suzuki, just to take it easy on my first time out.

I don't ride with that group for reasons I'll keep to myself. Be careful.

Cooter that sounds like a good time. Enjoy

Outthere if it's a dangerous organization maybe you should pm endo and let him know. Cooter, I only go through tech like this

 

[outthere]

He can read. If he' interested he will PM me. There prices are cheaper than most which seems to attract more squids than usual.

 

[Cooter]

WC, that's hilarious. Looking for a mandatory lead/follow?? :sorrow:

Outthere, I'll PM ya

 

[outthere]

Loaded ( I'm only having one ) and ready to go. Hope I'm not forgetting anything this time.

This happened in the paddock area at my last trackday. It was Ducati's finest with all the goddies.

 

[dantroop]

WHAT? That happened in the paddock! Things have sure changed since I was in the paddock.

 

[Cooter]

What?! I haven't even seen a track day CRASH that bad on the track!

Pics or it didn't... wait... explain or it didn't... :black_eyed:
