this is likely not what you want to hear but a lap timer or a lap timer app is probably the last thing you need when you first start as it will have you focusing on the wrong thing and trying to improve lap times rather than improve your lines, body position and markers.

I've done a few rounds at SOAR this year and had a blast, now i'm looking to check out a RACE round and grid up with you guys / gals this weekend.
As I understand there is a mentor program I can take advantage of and save myself and another racer 50% of the race fees, let me know if anyone is...
Am I the only one that can barely contain my excitement for Mosport next week??

so the wife decided that the track/race machine looks ugly (I think my fiberglass repair and rattle can paint skills are great for the record), and went ahead and got me some new body work for my birthday................YAY...............but now I dont think the rattle can is going to cut it so...
Rented a cottage for round 1 (Thursday - Sunday) but wife is not able to make it so i'll have more room than expected, one friend will be coming up and likely staying Friday night and leaving on Saturday, but there are 3 beds so there is room for at least one more person for the entire weekend...
So I've been toying with the idea of picking up a dirt bike, mainly to practice wheelies :-) but also to do some trail riding, was looking around at some some 4 stroke 250s between $2k-$3k but a good 80% of those bikes don't come with ownerships, whats the deal with that?
while we are all waiting for the season to start I thought it would be fun to share some of the lessons you guys and gals learned the hard way on the track
i'll start
