Hey now, no need to hate on free photos!

In. Paid for it a couple weeks ago. See if I can get myself bumped into intermediate by midday..or sooner. Besides, gotta test out the new slipper I put in a week ago.

oh that's crap! Give them a call....please?
Sidebar: I want to order a few prints from you from April. I just have not had time to figure out what kind of finish/size of what photos

back on topic: ....if we all whine and cry to Kevin, maybe we can have our way?....

In. Less hungover this time, but I predict more fun than last trip to the Ridge!

I'd like a sticker too. Dan, I need a sticker for Apex for the truck as well.

I don't know when that's going to happen. I'll try and get the ball rolling

I plan to be there... Isn't the upgraded sticky surface supposed to be applied by then?

I wouldn't bank on it, looks like everything is on hold out there for the time being.

I'm on the fence on this one, 3 days in a row is alot of track time...

Dan, I want a sticker too! I have a guy that makes vinyl well and fairly priced if you need.

JT.. Sticker please!

Off Topic - do you know why? Just curious and does anyone know the time line when they are putting in the bridge so people can go watch up top?

The website says they're focusing on the garages first. To give the Canadians and folks from other states places to store their cars, so they come back more often. Can't fault em for that. What we have now works just fine for us. I'll gladly use a portapotty for the time being.

I agree 100% I am more than happy for everything they have done and just building a track, I love that place!!!!

Thanks for the info Dan

Showers and bathrooms would be an awesome addition. Hopefully they are coming sooner rather than later

Not to mention that, from what I understand, it will take well over a month to apply the race surface - there's no way Rod is going to shut down the track in the thick of summer when it's generating revenue.

Cleophus James · 08-07-2012, 06:06 PM

Is it going to be the same format with experts open at lunch and after 4?

Im in. Will be my third time at The Ridge..

Can't wait to see if I can beat my slow 2:10.0 lap.

desmopilot · 08-08-2012, 05:48 PM

Does anyone have any info on whether there are still openings for this session? I sent out an email to Ducati Bellevue as well, so hopefully I'll know soon. I would like to take the trip over if possible.

That'll be neat to watch!

desmopilot · 08-09-2012, 10:45 AM

I got a spot!

I've only attended 2 track days and both were in Spokane last year. I'll be bringing over my new-to me 1000 SS and have never been to the Ridge before. I talked it over with Mike and I'm going to start in the beginner group until I learn the track a little, then we'll evaluate things.

I won't know anyone over there, so if you see a guy in black leathers on a black Ducati 1000 ss with 999 bodywork, please don't hesitate to say hi and offer me some tips or something!

Regards,

Jeff
