That’s pretty cool Mike, I know I’d kill myself on a bike but Junior keeps trying to get me on one of his spare ones.

I’ve heard they are real dbags at barber despite it being a fantastic facility, what were your experiences?

(Stuff like making you put plywood down in the garages before using jack stands/jacks, making you pay for damage to the grass if you have an off).

We didn’t have to do anything like that and I didn’t hear about that. I had a great experience there, and the track is just awesome. It’s about 3 cars wide, so being on a bike we had tons of room. I definitely want to run there again, but being that money is tight, I want to hit some of the other ones that I haven’t done like calabogie, nelson ledges and beaverun. Maybe that new one in jersey too.

That sucks man! I’ve been considering selling my bike, but I want to keep it so I can do track days 🙂
