My car was an issues, and enterprise wouldn’t get back to me on a solid price to rent a van, but I was looking at 250 or so. On top of that all the guys with trucks i knew backed out. So i just said screw it! fix my car which No shop can tell me whats wrong with, but they are sure after 500 dollars of guess work by them will fix the phantom problem. I think it just needs a break bleed.

On the plus side there is a track being built an hour away from here that will be ready next season so I’ll be there no doubt! :excited

New oil, oil filter, coolant, plug, new and changed rear and front sprockets, valves checked, installed new catch can/breather manifold, lost the “tail” and moved the plate to a more SuperMoto friendly position. Rainy weekends can be good for something… Sunday sounds like a great day for a ride, count me in.

Pumped is an understatement!:ahh:lol  
it’s all I’m looking forward too next year, the money it would cost me to get to NJMP once I think I could get 3 track days out of, depending on the price of the local spot.:wow

It does when you’re trying to get there on your own, but things keep going wrong.:rofl Also it was about catching up with friends. An hour track means I can be out there once a month at the least, Even if my mustang bitches out. which it seems like once I fix one thing I have another problem with it.:banghead  
I can still ride down there.:excited

The track in NH is 4.5hours and the NJ one is about 5.hours  
the difference between the two besides time, for me is the fact 4 or 5 guys I know are regulars at NJMP sometimes a group of 10 show up. I still plan on going down at some point next year.

3.5 hours definitely makes that big of a difference. That’s 7 hours round trip vs 2 hours. I can be out there and back no problem.

Yeah, 1 hour compared to 4.5+ hours is definitely a big difference IMHO. No excuse not to travel 1 hour to a track. 😛
