As a matter of fact I do. It's even got a whole 3 miles on it since I got it running. I'm confident it will be just fine this weekend. However I might be holding my breath a little the first session of the day.
Hey I had nothing to do with this. I was just riding around at 1/2 throttle minding my own business and Justin thinks we are in some kind of epic battle! :lmao:
Yeah I know. He's "that guy". He'd run around with yellow plates and make a trophy for himself to take home, bragging about track day "lap times" to anyone who'd listen, if he could. Not your fault Steve ..
:first: Track day winner... that's me! Eddie, if I went racing again, I would have to put the yellows back on, and that would make your head EXPLODE!!! I am doing you a favor by not racing! :bounce:
Barely sprinkled for a couple of minutes mid-morning, but no rain. Very humid, but overall pretty much perfect conditions.
Good weekend. Lots of fun and learned a ton with Dave Moss. Couple of vids. Threw the cam on the swing arm for this one. Fun to watch for a couple of laps but unless you trying to figure out shift points it gets boring quick. Lots of wheelies of course:wheel: https://youtu.be/Fw8nf6acr1A Threw this one up real quick for Ryan. Sorry forgot to adjust cam angle and lots of pit chit-chat at the start. https://youtu.be/hUU-M1H033g
Steve, I like you camera angle. You ride that thing like a 1000 .... are you still on a 600 or did you move up some in displacement? If it's a 600 you need to gear it taller. Not great for the entire video but awesome for other things. Sorry we didn't get to talk much. Lets catch up this week on the phone. Looks like there was hardly anyone there on Sunday.
Ya Bart I bought a new bike. 2015 BMW s1000rr, its stupid fast Wished we could have talked but I was doing the Dave Moss school and didn't realize you were leaving. Might be able to talk during the week but not sure as I'll be at Mosport getting ready for the CSBK final.
I was thinking you were riding it like a liter bike. Gentle and all I seen there was a photographer at the track. Was probably getting air off the jump out of T5 ... if not stellar wheelies. We need those for wheelie Wednesdays. I have maps for both CW and CCW for grattan. Working on a PDF map of Gingerman but I need another day there to complete it.
Good weekend, it was nice riding with all of you guys! One more time thank you guys for some pointers and tow around! Definitely I'll try to do more Grattan events in the future.
Ryan and Nelson, nice to meet you guys. Steve and Aaron thank you for the pointers, it helped me get over my Grattan bad juju and allowed me a PR Sunday CCW. Thank you to our Michigan crew for the hospitality! Always a great time! P.S. Wheelie cam angle is awesome Steve....
Me and Jlankes had an awesome day on Sun studying with the master himself.... so glad I did the class.
Here's my one and only video from the weekend. Rear view and there isn't a lot of passing due to light attendance, but I think both of my garage mates are in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlHN6l-JQgU As I was waiting to leave I snapped a few pics about halfway down the straight. Definitely interesting trying to get decent pics of bikes coming at you at 120-150MPH at that point in the track.
