OPRT @ TRMP 5/18 - Roll Call and a Question

I wouldn't count on being able to get in at 7:01.

 

No problem, just keep in mind this is our first time working with the new management as well, can't go breaking the rules immediately. Maybe things will loosen up as they get to know us and see us often, maybe not.

 

And remember to:

• 
  bring your picture ID to registration (so they can keep track of wheelie monsters),

• wear your helmet anytime you are on the bike, and

• walk it to v-tech.

It's not Rod's era at all.

Oh, IN.

 

V-tech? We're not all on Honda's

And yes, helmets anytime on a bike in the pits. Bikes at tech must be ready for inspection; lights taped, mirrors taped or removed, check for loose bolts, shake your exhaust make sure it's secure, brake pads have plenty of meat left, tires have sufficient tread, all brakes are installed (including rear brake!), throttle doesn't stick. Any of these will be a no go, and must do to ride on track.

 

My bad. Vehicle tech inspection. crackup:

 

I'm going, lvl 100 with class. Looking forward to my first track day.... but unfortunately last for a long while.

 

Meh, I noticed Zero difference last Monday from last season...except turn 13 was different and the little mini ridge track is looking pretty cool..

 

You could always ask the new guy

I'll be out there.

ccasion:

 

I just squeezed myself into my suit that I bought 30 lbs ago. So I'm in.

Question for the more experienced track guys - do you need to be able to breathe while you're out there?

 

On a serious and not serious note, yes... I bought a suit too small and it was so tight I couldn't ride relaxed for more than a couple laps before the fatigue set in from the suit squeezing everywhere. You might find your day kinda sucks riding when you're not comfortable.

 

Fat guy in a little suit! In!

Derick

 

You go to war with the army you've got.

It seems ok on the bike. Off the bike its fine as long as I drag my knuckles on the ground.

 

I heard there was a track day for fat guys?

 

Somebody say donuts?

 

relax breath
take deep breathes
the new management is willing to work with you as long as you stay in the little white box
its not that bad

 

There's a box? But I already passed the brc, that's why I'm doing the trackday......
