Looks like I'm all booked up and set for the full Friday school/track day at Grand Bend. Just sorting out the best way to get there x_x.

Looking at renting a Van and loading the bike in - good idea? bad idea? Otherwise I'm just riding it there :tongue6:

Renting a cargo van is infinity better than riding to the track!

Yeah, I may go that route x_x. I need to get some straps and a ramp then, heh.

With your skills and a litre bike. You'll love turns 2-5b and that back straight lol

is that rider development track or big track?


I might need some redemption for the last time

*edit* i'm on nights, so no dice for me!

 

[smergy]

Do what a few guys did. Ride green anyway lol

 

[smergy]

not with 100 kph+ closing speed differences, I'll pass.

The two guys that were red riders in our green group were never an issue for me. They passed super fast, clean and respectful riders.

But guess that depends on your level of comfort as well

 

[smergy]

going to TMP on monday, Aug.5 if anyone else is joining, let me know

 

[Nick_f]

No dice for me Randy, I'm off to Timmins for the weekend

great day at TMP, 2 groups, not very busy. Some sketchy riding by a number of yellow riders not following the race line. Couple scenic routes for a few, but I don't think there were any crashes. Brand new michellin slick isn't looking so healthy. Don't think I will be running any more medium compount tires. Front Dunop 448 looks hardly worn at all

Heard there were a few wrecks. 150+kmh low side in turn 1 on Sunday punctured lung and another low side turn 4 on Saturday ride ok tracked on Sunday once parts were installed.

Heard air ambulance came on Sunday for a guy that hit a wall on the drag strip and blew up the car. Hope he was ok. But I guess things shut down for about an hour.
