Thanks for the info SiCC, that's the kind of stuff I need to know. I still hope to meet up with some peeps from the forum, just cuz that would be more fun, I think.

What sicc explained is partially correct. Close enough. You can find all the actual details on our site. 2-Fast.org

We open tech at 7am.
We do a track ride around, around 7:40ish.
We do riders meetings around 8:15ish.

Come enjoy coffee, muffins and other sugar laced break2fast goodies during/before/after the riders meeting.
We also cook you lunch between the 12-1 o'clock hour. When you're not on the track or in class, come get a burger or two.
Also, we provide bottles of water, in case you forget to bring some.

Let me know if you need someone to pit with. Myself or other staff members usually have plenty of space.

Thanks for clarifying for me. Yard Sale mentioned in his PM that I really wouldn't need to pit since I was doing the school/track combo, but it would still be nice pit with someone just to chit chat/chill during lunch, breaks or whatever, and get to know you guys. I have a feeling the track is gonna be my thing...smooth, fast, semi-controlled environment, yes, I like.

This yard sale guy sounds smart and correct. You'll have plenty of space and people to talk to during the day, especially since you're in the school. I'll be on a black bike with the #72 on it. Come grab me and say hello. If that yard sale guys smells funny, not that kind of smell.....that kind, you're more than welcome to take space with me. See you on the 28th.

From my experience with Sullivan's, they are good about helping out new and first time track day peeps.

I do have a trailer available if anyone wants to borrow it for the trip down and back. I've folded it up for the season, so I don't have any use for it until next year. If you know anyone with a trailer hitch, it makes the ride down nicer. And knowing that if something goes terribly wrong and you damage your bike, you still have a ride home, is also a plus.

If the weather looks good and I can get time off from work, I would like to drive over and attend the school. I really want to improve from a C rider into a B rider...
