    Seriously though, I never know what I'll be doing until we get there. But if you want to go out and play one session, come see me in the garage.

    I knew time was being lost in the bus stop. :) I'll find you after the first couple sessions and you can show me how fast I am not.

    I was able to get out to Putnam last time for my first time with STT and had a blast. I will be there this time as well but just on Sunday.

    Just a heads up that we still have a few spots left in all group levels for this event.

    It's the last Putnam Park track day event for the season, so get it while you still can!:thumb:

    So anyone know if they're coaching I on sat/sun yet?

    I'll be asking for a tow shortly after the riders meeting

    We coaches really don't know until about 10 minutes before the rider's meeting exactly what our assignment is.

    I signed up for the Novice class. :eek: This will only be my second real track day and first at Putnam.

    Hope to meet some of you and get some pointers from the instructors.

    Later, Doug

    I signed up for both days, in "I"(thanks for the kick in the ass on that front, Owen, lol). My good riding buddy signed up for "N" both days, although he's hoping for the bump.

    This will be my first time to Putnam, and my first time in Intermediate. Very much looking forward to learning more and working on my riding!

    Still have a few spots left for both days in all group levels.

    Last chance for the Putnam event for the season, so you don't wanna miss out!!

    Sign up soon or you'll be sold out for sure!

    They still don't let you camp at the track over there, do they?

    Nice. Is it still a mandatory red flag anytime a handlebar touches the ground?

    Hasn't been that way ever I think (at least since '09). I think it's a red flag for ambulance on track.

    If you're standing in an impact zone, they will red flag.

    If you're okay, leave the bike and get out the impact zone. You don't want to be waiting in the impact zone for the session to be over with.
