Kitchener/Waterloo area, c u next trackday riders thread!

...assuming those are being put on by GBMP...
April 29 first day for that...

Might have to keep that one on the radar and watch the weather. It would be really nice to shake down the bikes a lot closer to home instead of Shannonville, in case there is a post-winter glitch somewhere.
 
Hells yeah. May 7 can't come soon enough - its going to be awesome! Have you got your bike all sorted Nick?

Nick & Tim- have you guys signed up yet?

Not as of yet... going to wait and see with the weather a bit first....
What about you, Steve?
SpyRadar (Jin) is thinking about coming along a few times this season on is 1098 as well...

Nick - why can't you ride till August? What did you do to earn that fate? :-(
 
Tim- i had one too many speeding tickets over the last few years( all under 20km) and the one falls off in August, so thats when i can get insurance again.

Looking for a nicer trailer than that. i would prefer something with a ramp.
 
...and because you only rode the track once last year, unfortunately! Man I can't wait for spring! I wonder what's going on with my bike at Pro6. I'll call them next week and see if they've even touched it yet. haha...

I can't wait for the spring either, watching a lot of track videos on my down time!
 
Might have to come out to see my old bike and try the new one already booked for Nelson may7th but hope to get a few days in April like the last few years.
I'll keep watching this thread to see the days your booking.

Cool... for those of you who don't know Irocian, he's the fellow who sold me my SV1000....

Later!
 
So does this mean you'll beat Dave having more CC's than him? :p

Well, I'm prettier than Dave, so I get bonus points there.... ;-)
But, chances are, he'll kick my *** around the track for at least the next few years...

Uhm, okay. For THAT, I'm going to kick your butt around the track forever. I thought maybe I'd be nice and let you pass me once or twice, but not now! I'm going to lap you so I can pass you! I'll have to wait for you to work your way up to red first ;)

I love winter bench racing. :)

Okay.... I really can't say who is prettier, I don't want to play favorites. How about we say you're both pretty. Or you could just compare your 'stats' from your escapades at Club Renaissance. Ha.

As for the racing - I've just read that a loss of 7lbs equals 1hp gained. So, go easy on the tacos.
And yes - I'll wait for you both at the finish line. ;)

Too bad it's cause you'll have been enforcing the "Lowrider" monicker again on the last turn of the first lap, forcing you to wait.... hehehehehe....

What's your price range?
Enclosed, asking $2K (Sarnia): http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-cars-veh...-trailers-Enclosed-Trailer-W0QQAdIdZ351955415
Open, looks promising, asking $650 (Near Tillsonburg): http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-cars-veh...ssories-Motorcycle-Trailer-W0QQAdIdZ348927107

last time I drove by Bridgeport on Bridge Street that enclosed trailer I mentioned earlier was still there. Would need a ramp and mounting points added in - not a big deal really.
 
Just registered and account with Grand Bend Motorplex and went to check out the registration fees etc.
Looks like each day will be $125. Doesn't look like they'll be doing the mixed skill groups on the same day either - each day they are holding is listed as beginner, intermediate or advanced/expert.

At the moment, the Sunday April 29th isn't showing on the registration page, but is on their schedule.

*EDIT*
April 29th is a Beginner day - fired them an email and they just got back to me.

That always depends on how many people show up. If there are only 30 riders there, no way they'll run 3 groups.
 
That's the thing...
When you go to the website - they've got it listed as different skill levels on different days.
So, if you're a newbie, you go to the beginner days.. if you're intermediate, you go to those days etc.

Wonder how it will work for them.... or, if they'll have to start combining days like other organizers.

Wow - thats messed up. So would it just be an open session all day...? I'm sure that they'll figure it out closer to the date when they have poor registration numbers... they'll have to run seperate groups on the same days.

Could be a good way for all of us to ride in the same group though....
