I've thought of two places--either Las Vegas (Spring Mountain & LCMS) or the North Bay area (Thunderhill and Infineon). What do you guys / girls think? Where would you move to?

I'm pleased to announce the 2010 WMRRA schedule. We are still looking to add two Spokane rounds but currently the track is in a state that we cannot schedule or confirm dates. I will continue to actively seek adding rounds there as things play out over there. Good news is I was able to secure an additional weekend @ Pacific Raceways in July, so Ive added it to our schedule.

April 3rd & 4th
May 8th & 9th
June 12th & 13th
July 17th & 18th
August 14th & 15th
Sept 11th & 12th
Oct 2nd & 3rd

Thanks,
Nico Tomacelli

so ive got a 03 CBR600RR and an older ninja 250

now i can sell/trade the 600 but not the 250(its the fiances learner bike),

both bikes have had some work done to them

rear sets, exshust, tires, for the 600,
tires, breaklines/pads, suspension and clip ons for the 250

now which is a better bike to track offten, is there any MUST have modifcations?

and secondly would it be better to get rid of the 600 for an already setup track bike???

thanks guys!

I've been asked some questions by people who are basically looking to get into some form of motorcycle competition that made me think about this, but I don't have enough data. Doesn't have to be PNW local. Anyone? :ninja:

im trying to convince my fiancee that track days and racing are a safe way for one to get out and have fun(compared to stuff like advanced down hill sking and MT biking). she didn't like my first track day very much,(and i didnt even have any close calls) but she still thinks that me do 150 down the front of PR was to scary and dangerous. but im starting to come to grips with the fact that im addicted to the track after one hit... and need to go back

second thing, any events let you take passangers?(with proper gear of course) :D

Thanks guys!

He went down, they certainly hit, yet just had a lil scrapes, nothing broke at all on them. Not really practical for actual racing, but anyone ever seen someone else do this for just a casual track bike?
