sidenote: I'm off by 45 seconds

My imaginary laps are ~45s faster than the real lap times, I think I'm skipping past the straights a bit because all the corners are there and I can see the braking points and turn in points in my mind

Goal of the weekend: Do not run over the photo guy.

ally99 · January 14th, 2015, 03:16 PM

Don't worry, he'll keep shooting pictures even if you do.

Yeah. It's not exactly the time for target practice. Oops.

Sirref · January 14th, 2015, 03:20 PM

Gsxr is confirmed, can't wait to rip the track up on that thing, I think I may bring both bikes to ensure I can ride if noise regulations try to screw me over

Sirref · January 15th, 2015, 11:11 PM

@csmith12 have you paid your way yet? I am doing so in the near future, I.E. within the week

csmith12 · January 16th, 2015, 07:56 AM

Nope, but same here.

csmith12 · January 20th, 2015, 06:33 PM

fyi, this is a 100% go. Kevin and I bought our spots. See ya'lls there.

Sirref · January 20th, 2015, 08:14 PM

gonna wipe out my bills real quick and I'll have my spot purchased tomorrow

Sirref · January 22nd, 2015, 02:58 PM

Officially confirmed, was more expensive this time

on the bright side my breakfast on the 30th will be free since 98 rock radio station is holding "bacon and beer" at my restaurant which is on the way

csmith12 · January 22nd, 2015, 03:02 PM

Yea, price on the website was 4 big faces. I got a call into them because there seems to be some conflicting pricing info. Hoping to get a $75 credit. You are the 3rd person to pay the $400.

We will see....

Sirref · January 22nd, 2015, 03:04 PM

I can live with the $400, but if they knock it back to what it was before then I definitely won't have any issues with that. Is that 3 people total that have paid or did some people get the $325?

Some got the $325, 3 others paid the $400. There are most likely more and will be more as more riders buy spots. So far, looks like a good turnout of 20+ riders, maybe more by go time.

Sirref · January 22nd, 2015, 03:14 PM

we're a week out, it'll probably be more. That's a good turnout for the 3day though

csmith12 · January 22nd, 2015, 03:31 PM

Last year there was 34 of us. We were over 1/3rd of the paddock and half the riders out in any given session. It's sooo cool to come up on someone you know just about every lap.

@alex.s

alex.s · January 22nd, 2015, 06:39 PM

next years' january jennings will be even more fun cause i'll be there.

ally99 · January 22nd, 2015, 06:51 PM

January Jennings? Seriously?

alex.s · January 22nd, 2015, 07:27 PM

sometimes i forget it gets cold in the winter

csmith12 · January 22nd, 2015, 08:55 PM

Next year @alex.s... it's on brah!!! I got your bike on lock. You wanna ride an r6 next time around?

@Sirref - Dood... the weather is kinda cool in the evening/overnight. I will have a 20 degree sleeping bag for you, but you need to plan for the worst case. That is, that I don't make the gate close time on Fri. 43 degrees is no fun and a lends itself to a pretty sh*tty nights sleep. Make sure you plan on the worst for Fri's sleeping arrangements, because I might not be there until Sat. morning.

And speaking of sleeping arrangements, I am NOT planning on setting up the taj mahal, but I will have it just in case. Kevin and I are taking the trailer, there is only room for 2, but you're more than welcome to the gmc with folded down seats to make a flat spot to catch some zzzzz's. The gmc will retain heat if warmed up before night, night time. Between the car and 20 degree sleeping bag, I got you.

Sirref · January 23rd, 2015, 07:37 AM

don't worry about it, I'm questioning if I'll make the gate closing time myself since I could get seriously distracted at the "bacon and beer" event. Especially considering how they could put me on the radio when they see the truck and go "who dafaq is headed to a race track on a motorcycle in january!?" hahahahaha

believe it or not my truck is super comfy to sleep in and I've done it before, plus this time I'm going to be smart and bring pants and a jacket/sweaters

I have to admit though chris, you are like a track angel

with all the things that you do to help everyone out

ally99 · January 23rd, 2015, 06:57 PM

+1,000!

The Appalachian Trail has a regular term for "trail angels". Chris definitely fits the definition of a "track angel"!

Kinda cool, Chris. You're an original, genuine, kick-ass (literally) dude!

csmith12 · January 24th, 2015, 01:10 PM

^^^ ya'lls are too much.

Bump for the 7 day mark and the weather is looking good. Come have some fun on track, and in the paddock.

Don't forget the earplugs for both on track and so you can get some solid sleep. The party will most likely go late into the evening.

See ya'lls there.

csmith12 · January 26th, 2015, 04:39 PM

Paid!!!! Happy Birthday to me!

I am mostly packed and ready. Still waiting on a last minute part for the new r6. Snow, ice and super wet ground is hampering my work to get the trailer squared away.

Sirref · January 26th, 2015, 05:28 PM

AWWW YISSS!!!

lookin' forward to the trip coach :salute:
I'm confirming the gixxer as my track weapon for this event, I just changed the oil though I'm going to have to do that again because I'm a dumbass though and put a bit too much in. After the oil change I started her up and she purred...quietly

my phone read 83db inside a garage at idle and 90 at 12k rpm right next to it

csmith12 · January 26th, 2015, 08:04 PM

You're all set!

I got my questionable Fri. plans firmed up. I will be making the gate time.

So bring your sleeping gear and you got a spot to sleep that is flat. lol

It's almost go time!

Sirref · January 26th, 2015, 08:35 PM

looks like my phone maxes out at 90, I'm gonna double check with another device tomorrow or wed if I can get the bike outside (hell is freezing over out there)

I do believe that the bike is within noise regulations but want to be sure

Sirref · January 27th, 2015, 07:34 PM

just got a proper db meter, ran a 108 inside my garage standing right next to it just now

I'd continue to test but I'm afraid I'd wake up the neighbors

I'll know tomorrow if standing 15ft away and being outside helps enough

csmith12 · January 27th, 2015, 08:47 PM

108 @ 12k rpms inside a garage sounds about right to me

while also standing right next to it

I think I'll drop below 104 by moving outside, but I'm a bit bummed I can't find a muffler insert online for a yoshi rs3 to ensure that I'm good to go though

The magic number was changed to 102

but I still think your gunna be fine.

Can you smell the race fuel yet?

Sirref · January 27th, 2015, 09:55 PM

I can feel the itch of anticipation, I just finished my last shift before the trip today and now I'll be sitting through classes daydreaming about the track

I'm in full preparation mode now, stocking up on beef jerky and assembling all the stuff I need for easy loading on thurs. I finally got new tie downs too since the old ones felt flimsy and were starting to wear.

Sirref · January 28th, 2015, 09:23 AM

Ran the numbers outside this time on the gsxr600 with full yoshimura rs-3 exhaust

measuring at the exhaust (from behind)
idle: 82db
12k rpm: 116db

measuring 10ft away on the starboard side
idle: 76db
12k rpm: 98db

it's amazing what a difference 10 feet of open air makes, and only two neighbors were pissed off in the process of this testing

they understood and helped me out after I explained that I was testing the exhaust rather than trying to piss anyone off. The $50 was well spent on the db meter in the name of peace of mind, that seems to be one of the best ways to spend money since anxiety about driving 1k miles to not ride sucks and it's gone now.

csmith12 · January 28th, 2015, 09:45 AM

Didn't I guess you would be around 98db in one of these threads?

Anyway, here is what you do to further ensure there is not a problem. When you exit 14, stay about midtrack or farther left until you get past the start finish (that is where they take the sound reading).

No buzzing the tower private!!!!

Sirref · January 28th, 2015, 09:46 AM

I'm gonna miss buzzing the tower, I did it quite a bit on the 250 bc I didn't give a damn when I was quiet compared to a few of the bikes

I don't remember you calling an exact DB just calling that I'd be below 102

csmith12 · January 28th, 2015, 10:04 PM

One bike in the trailer already.

Sirref · January 28th, 2015, 10:08 PM

Can't wait to see the new track r6

Running into small issues with that. Nothing I can't work through, but I hate having problems at the last minute.

MOTM - Mar '14	just got a proper db meter, ran a 108 inside my garage standing right next to it just now I'd continue to test but I'm afraid I'd wake up the neighbors I'll know tomorrow if standing 15ft away and being outside helps enough __________________________________________________ I see you over there seeing me, do you see the me I think you see?

MOTM - Mar '14	I can feel the itch of anticipation, I just finished my last shift before the trip today and now I'll be sitting through classes daydreaming about the track I'm in full preparation mode now, stocking up on beef jerky and assembling all the stuff I need for easy loading on thurs. I finally got new tie downs too since the old ones felt flimsy and were starting to wear. __________________________________________________ I see you over there seeing me, do you see the me I think you see?

MOTM - Mar '14	Ran the numbers outside this time on the gsxr600 with full yoshimura rs-3 exhaust measuring at the exhaust (from behind) idle: 82db 12k rpm: 116db measuring 10ft away on the starboard side idle: 76db 12k rpm: 98db it's amazing what a difference 10 feet of open air makes, and only two neighbors were pissed off in the process of this testing they understood and helped me out after I explained that I was testing the exhaust rather than trying to piss anyone off. The $50 was well spent on the db meter in the name of peace of mind, that seems to be one of the best ways to spend money since anxiety about driving 1k miles to not ride sucks and it's gone now. __________________________________________________ I see you over there seeing me, do you see the me I think you see?

MOTM - Mar '14	I'm gonna miss buzzing the tower, I did it quite a bit on the 250 bc I didn't give a damn when I was quiet compared to a few of the bikes I don't remember you calling an exact DB just calling that I'd be below 102 __________________________________________________ I see you over there seeing me, do you see the me I think you see?
