Moto_joe! Thanks for all the coaching and feedback. A lot going on with a crowded track, you did outstanding work on this 55 year old slow guy. The 'mental' comments were very relevant, especially after the end to that day. Hope I can return the favor. Welcome back.
Thanks. Was that you I saw on the outside of T1 with a split stator cover? If so are you ok? after that session i was pre-occupied packing up, so I never went to find you.
No, the half finished paint and decals on the zx6. I packed up after the red flag on the second to last session and just headed out for a somber drive home after the 'A' turn 15 accident. Thanks again
NO doubt, I knew who you were , but as I passed the bike it sortof looked like you on the redflag. There were two. One in T1, and one in T8, and the one in T1 looked like you sortof, but I didnt get a good look. PS: You are not slow . As I told you, you have the pace to hold your own in Intermediate easily. Even top half of intermediate probably. Just have to get your head right, and work on some brake markers and you will be golden.
I just read about the accident Sunday afternoon. I had no idea. I skipped the last two sessions to get on the road. My thoughts are with his family.
You were rolling out there in Advance group Sherry!! Nice and smooth and in control...looking good girl!:thumb: Congrats on the lap times too.
Had a great time riding with you. Look forward to seeing you at the track again. Now remember to get off the bike, your rolling at a good pace and pretty soon you are going to be running out of lean angle. Have a great trip to Deals Gap and be safe. :thumb:
My first STT weekend. Very nice event. Met some really nice people this weekend. Loved seeing Joey showing everyone how it is done. Even though he was hauling the mail like nobody else, he made the absolute cleanest passes out there. The man knows how to ride a bike fast and safe.:cheer:
I had a great time this weekend thanks everyone who helped me out this weekend. A big thanks to the intermediate instructor on the white, black, and red Daytona who rode with me for a few sessions Sunday until I messed up the Museum corner.
I almost tossed it in that corner too, after getting 1st instead of 2nd. I think I talked to you at breakfast Sunday morning. It was good meeting you.
Thanks to Larry for hoofing it all the way to the top of the paddock in full leathers Saturday afternoon to make sure my son was OK after his lowside in T5. That's going the extra mile for sure.
Jerzy, I had so much fun riding with you! Watching you get faster and faster was a blast. You are confident and smooth and at the same time, very open to suggested pointers. Pretty much the perfect student. Brian, I was on the black and white Duc and rode with you the one session on Sunday. You looked great. Eric was on the triumph, I saw a couple things that I pointed out but you were smooth and fast. Just a little later on those few apexes and you will be even harder to catch. It was my honor and privilege to ride with both of you. I appreciate the kind words.
Guilty as charged:woot: Those things were delicious and lethal, thanks for ignoring all the signs and "feeding the bears":thumb: It was great meeting you both, I hope to see you at some northern events. Cheers!
It was great having both of you in my group this weekend. You looked really good out there and I saw great progression throughout the day. Your son was doing awesome and getting to work with him one on one later in the day was enjoyable. I look forward to seeing both you and him back out there. Glad he is doing well and hopefully some of the feedback was helpful for the future. Ltyson Sent using Tapatalk
Thanks for the pointers Rick. I look forward to practicing them more. And getting revenge on the museum turn some time. Hopefully next time I get to barber the two of you will be CR again. Sent from mah smaht fonez.
Yeah no shite Brian, I get permission to step down and run with you in Intermediate and you go and wad it up the session before. I know I'm fast, but there's no reason to be intimidated... ound:
Had a great time this weekend at Barber! My first full weekend ever. Learned a lot again with the help of Marc, Derrick, Brett and the rest of the STT staff. I really enjoy hanging out with you guys. Thanks for all the hospitality and thanks Marc for working the gril and taking care of my bike! Got my first experience in "A" group and pulled my fastest time ever! Felt much more comfortable and confident. I also was able to take advantage of the great deal Brett and his wife had on the custom ear plugs. Love em! Hope to see you all again at the next one!
Here is a little video looking back in intermediate on Sunday. Look for Perrone waving at me before he disappears. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhOTCGHMHfs&feature=channel&list=UL
