Default Signing up for my 1st cornering school!

Well I think I am biting the bullet in the am and sign up for a Riders Skill 1 CornerSpeed Class at VIR. I work with a womans who's husband is an instructor there, and he is going to give me a hand setting the bike up. He will also be one of my instructors so[sm=icon_rock.gif]

Ive had my bike for almost a year now, and really want to learn how to get lower in the turns. Ive always went in a straight line with my cars, but really enjoy the twisties on the bike. Im pretty nervous as it is on the bike, so I am curious to see how I handle everything come track day. It should be a blast though, and I am hoping they have people up to take pics! Wish me luck!!! If its not full, I will be going at the end of Sept!!!

I talked to a guy who did Cornerspeed. I got really excited about it. Just couldn't put it together. I'm doing 9/30 at ViR Patriot. Perhaps we could go together. I believe they have slots left.
