Ok folks. I know y'all have done some TD's. Let's have at it.
Lets see your track/race videos!
- Thread starter quikcolin
- Start date
Just finished editing up my videos from May 21st at TMP
Session 1 - First session at TMP, used some footage from SweetOnion to sync up a Picture-In-Picture. Got a few shots of KamenRider's orange ducati, and Panici blue R6 too

Wow, is that a doctor's driving club?
Look at all the Doctor's, exiting their vehicle on hot track.
Its nice of their Nurse's to ride along with them.

Oh fine.... like you haven't seen this one Cola... I was unknowingly being filmed by Adawar.
Yes - I have to work on my lines and lots of other things, if you guys are wondering why I am so close to the inside on the back straight, it's because an Aprilia dumped oil on the racing line.

I assume you are talking about the car crash at TMP, because my video sure as hell isn't that exciting.

Fast forward to about 7.40 for some decent (for me) times.

That's a good one! Front end just let go. Cold tire? Overinflated tire? Spent tire? Something on the track surface? You were a little wide in there. Did you get in the marbles? Bad effin luck? You weren't breaking to bottom out the suspension or going fast enough there to be dangerous or upset the bike. On the 250 I just get off the throttle for a split second to settle the bike and dump it in there.
I went out to look at the bike again with a clear head.I did get the thing back on the track sun for one "slow" session (3 min+ laps).Here's a pic of the tire.Something wrong for sure.What do you think Gary?
I'm glad you are OK. That is a fast part of that track to go down on.
Looking at that video again, it does look like the back end came around. At first I thought you lost the front because that is what you think would happen there and I make far too many assumptions in my old age. That is the right side of the tire in the photo and you went down on the left side and I'm not a tire expert. When my tires have gone off or look like these, I ask the Dunlop guy.
I would have a talk with your tire guy and get the suspension dialed in again before you attempt another track day. It's not like you doing 2:10s around there so that should not have happened. You weren't hard on the throttle. It was just a total lack of traction.

It's a bit bumpy, first time using the GoPro and I don't think the tank cover on my bike is the most solid spot.
It's tmp July 16 this year.

Some info on the tire would be helpful... what was the ambient temperature, tire pressure, rubber compound, warmers, etc... kinda looks like a cold tear.
