This is backwards on the 1.7 at Rattlesnake, right?

Absolut · June 2nd, 2016, 06:17 AM

Counter clockwise, the 'normal' direction we run at Motorsport Ranch Cresson. Bottom of the chicane at the exit.

Also my outside leg almost came off a couple times when I hit a bump leaned over. Shorty problems lol

I did get commended on my BP all day. Really butters the ego

Love this first photo!

higear223 · June 4th, 2016, 10:45 AM

Last weekend at NCM.
Got bumped to intermediate.

csmith12 · June 4th, 2016, 10:56 AM

Nice Greg! Any chance your going back to NCM this season? I will be there this year, just don't know when. Will most likely be riding I group with my buddy.

I should be there with MCRA in Sept.

geeker · June 9th, 2016, 03:24 PM

It was a long nine months. I had my first track day of the season at Barber on 6/4/16 under the threat of rain with STT. It took me most of the day to get back in to the groove, and by the time I did, *POOF* session 7 was over. I was sorting out a new ZX6R than the last time I was at Barber as well. It entered the paddock with 297 miles on the odometer.

In the end, the shiny side stayed upright and I left with a smile on my face all the same. I'm ready to go back. Why can't my bank account be ready to go back?

Turn 14 approaching 15

Turn 4

mid chicane bp while leading the TPM ninja race. Finding it a bit tricky to get as much upper body movement as I want in chicanes since it's side to side to side.

tgold · July 12th, 2016, 11:17 AM

How's my body position?

Getting there....

csmith12 · July 12th, 2016, 08:27 PM

I saw better than that pic, ijs.

adouglas · July 20th, 2016, 08:14 AM

Got some great pics from that trip, including some that show me holding Ant and Jay up...

.

Totally intentional to set up the group shot, I assure you. No, really. Would I lie to you?

I also have some of Ben on my bike.

Now to find the time to sort and upload...

Mike K · July 21st, 2016, 07:24 AM

Yakaru · July 21st, 2016, 07:39 AM

Here's some of my BP from last week, still not great but I think I'm seeing some improvements:

RacinNinja · July 21st, 2016, 08:49 AM

I guess cross up is just my style....LOL!

csmith12 · July 21st, 2016, 08:50 AM

foshizzle!

adouglas · July 21st, 2016, 09:00 AM

Eyes, check.

Toe pointed, knee out, check.

Now what's this twisty thing in my right hand for?

Been about ten months since I've rode at the track, I've regressed, but I should be back up to speed soon, bp will be corrected too

Is that one of those little racing 125's? The Kayo MiniGP?

Sirref · August 4th, 2016, 07:48 AM

Looking good out there! Is the front still moving around on you?

adouglas · August 4th, 2016, 10:39 AM

Nope. Musta been the tire.

Hang off the seat just an inch or two more and lower you head a bit more and guess what is in your near future? A new world awaits when you know where the ground is.

Progress in small controlled steps.... love it!
