As far as track days,I did 2 in one week.That video is @ Infineon which was my first track day.At first I started at the back of the field and got held up by slower traffic.Then later started closer to the front to get a clear track to ride faster.Track days are cheaper than a speeding ticket any day.

Word of warning: riding on the track WILL wreck street riding for you.

It did for me, and almost everyone I know. I still enjoy going out on a sunday for a nice long ride with some pals but it doesn't give me the excitement of nailing a corner and getting those lap times down.

My trackbike was my best investment (besides the tire warmers, trailer, generator, chairs, cooler.. and all the other crap I ended up buying to support the addiciton!! )
