Totally true about 13 imho, but I have only been there once for 3 days. Each day was better and better though. I was pinned in 10 and never let up until the braking zone of 13. fyi.... ymmv

I dont think I saw any turtles or gators! We did have a rider go off into the pond. It was nuts!

Also, correction, running off the track, definitely T13. lol

Yeah the 600 line is definitely different from the 250.

It was a fun learning curve.

I was there with my son and a group of locals riders and the night before our trackday, while walking the track, we saw a pygmy rattle snake. My son tried to pick it up but luckily it took off toward the pond rather quickly. This is why I don't camp (as well as a million other reasons).

Wait till you see the back half off Mid-O dude, a couple of the turns are blind and/or off camber.

Alex, how is the new life on the west coast (I mean Gulf Coast). Hopefully you're making so much money you can retire soon.
