Thanks Rocket! Now we’ll actually meet up this year and I’ll put a lot more than 2,000 measly miles on my bike.

Yeah man, I think it may just be cheaper to just rent a UHAUL low-pro trailer for the weekends? If I find something cheap this year, I’ll definitely pick it up so keep you’re eye out. Probably gonna cost like $200 or so to get a hitch on the car.

Now it’s time to join TPM! :excited

I’d look into track fairings, but trying to actually keep “fun” expenses down so I can pay off all my debt I have as soon as possible. Track days may have other plans for such ideas.

I signed up for Inside Pass through TPM.

TTD’s was out for me being that they’re only holding 2, 2 day events @ NYST. (I really dont want to travel to NJMP)

I don’t know of any others besides TPM, but being my first year doing track days, I’ve heard good things about TPM, so I figured, what the hell, give em’ a shot.

I plan on doing at least 4 track days this year. But still, Inside Pass made more sense @ $75 + $190 a track day rather than $300 + $150 a track day. If I do 5 or 6, then I should’ve went with Full Throttle, but, I don’t know what the future holds so, f00k it. :lol

I sold that crap a long time ago. It never completely fit right (Probably because it was downed a few times) and I had to use zipties to keep the bottom from rubbing against the front tire. I actually traded them for Renthal clip-ons, but then sold the clip-ons not thinking I was gonna be able to keep the bike.

Either this year or next year I think I’m gonna pick up a cheap track bike. Maybe like an 03 R6 or something. Or, just get some Armour Bodies for the current R6 and have it do double duty. For now though, just gonna use the Rossi fairings on the track to see how I like the track. After my first track day will determine how much cash I’m dropping. :lol

Some info on the current status of the track. If you are planning on hitting the track this will be good info. No garage kind of sucks but I am used to not pitting in a garage, but no power really blows. Still trying to decide if I should drive home and sleep or camp out next week. I guess the weather will a major factor too. Just so glad that the track is so close to home…:giggle

I am sure things will be 100% as time goes.
