Lone Star Mo-Park...Cresson...

Taking the c-class and the rider's school...

Now, I need to order new tires...

 

cool have fun man!
is this your first trackday?

 

Yeah...lol...I usually don't get all hyped up over something I have done a million times...

I'll probably learn alot...although I have pretty good feel and technique....(I think)...

2-finger braker...trail-braker into mid-corner if necessary...can shift almost computer like...

I think my main weakness is leaning off in left handers...I tend to want to stay centered on the bike...but in a right hander...my knee is pawing for the tarmac. Weird habit...easily breakable...

 

Alright...got my Joe Rocket Mesh 5.0 Ballistic pants...(good enough for a beginner)...on the way...

Gloves check...

Helmet...check...

Ordering some new sticky tires...

blue painter's tape for the lights and mirrors..no residue...

Here is some footage from a coupla of the guys and the track I will be at...

Thanks Misfire and Jason...

At my first trackday, I used blue painters tape to tape up the rear lights. It didn't pass tech inspection because you could see the brake light showing thru the tape.

They told me to either remove the fuse, or put some duct tape over the painters tape. I chose the latter, since I had no idea where the fuses were.[sm=smiley9.gif]

 

I used electrical tape covered by duct tape for my first trackday (the duct tape matched the silver fairings perfectly lol)
you need to remove the fuses anyway

 

Or just unplug the lights...

Have fun man. You're about to take your riding skills to a whole new level.

 

Have fun!!!
you'll find out that you have alotta bad habits...
