Do you mean Gingerman in Aug on the 14th & 15th. Hope to see you there. Book early if you can cause its the ducatti track and rally fest. Ill be riding Advanced on my Fugly FZ6.

Nope, NESBA is at Putnam on the 14th ad 15th

Never been to putnam before sunday.
GREAT TRACK. FAST FAST FAST and flowing. I was driving into, and taking turn one at 90mph.
It would be a GREAT track for a 250 if you dont mind being dusted down the straight. (I was hitting 150 + mph) If there was an S turn in the middle of the straight the 250 would rule that track. So dont be shy about running a 250 there you wont be in the way after the straight.

Now 4 days worth of hauling fuel and its back to the track (Grattan) for a whole weekend of riding.

ANYONE COMING TO GRATTAN THIS WEEKEND??

DCBenson · August 5th, 2010, 07:27 PM

I don't see anything listed on Grattans website showing a trackday on the 31st/1st. What's going on? I want to try and get a few track days in before the end of the year but I'm waiting for some parts for the track bike. They should be here within the next week so I should be up and ready by then. Now all I need is to figure out how to get the bike there!

almost40 · August 5th, 2010, 08:51 PM

Sorry that was last weekend July 31 Aug 1

The next Grattan with STT is Sept. 4-5

Theres always ducatti fest a Gingermen Aug 14th &15th
Ill be there running advanced on my Fugly FZ6

DCBenson · August 6th, 2010, 03:24 AM

Yeah, I missed the post date. HAHA. I'll be at both Michigan STT track days in October. I want to try and get into WERA ESS class next spring and start racing. I guess we will see how it goes. Hope to see you there!

almost40 · August 6th, 2010, 12:32 PM

You gona ride I group in October or A Group??

DCBenson · August 6th, 2010, 12:39 PM

This will be my first track day. I'm sure I will be in the novice grouping.

almost40 · August 6th, 2010, 12:51 PM

You might wana take a few trackdays and the pro-school that STT offers before you go racing. Youll get your racing licence after you graduate the pro school. Then your set.

DCBenson · August 6th, 2010, 12:57 PM

Absolutely! I don't want to be a danger to myself or others. Couple track days this year and early days next year plus at least one racing school before I try any races.
