2 groups. 1 group SOAR racers, 1 group track day people with VRRA racers (the group I was in). Tonnes of track time. A friend was there Saturday also and it was open all day. He clocked 300km on Saturday!
Lets see your track/race videos!

- Start date
what kind of lunatic would go around in a circle for 300km in that kind of cold? oh, wait. 
great vids dave, thanks for posting them up, gives me a good idea what I need to work on. That t-bone was damn close.
Sure was... I can't imagine why so many people thought that was the right way to go. Tunnel vision I guess...

LOL, was that you with the black cbr1000? You were hardly ever NOT on the track! First one out in the morning to brave the cold IIRC, too.
I gave the old Fizzer a fair bit of exercise, too, but called it early in the afternoon after having a massive front end slide (old tires from last year). New slicks are on the bike now, ready for next weekend at Shannonville.
No pics?!
Was there a Racer 5 class the day before or something? Because that's when the pylons mean; "go here".
No... those riders didn't have a problem with the pylons all morning. Maybe they forgot that the track changed at noon.
No, you weren't there I guess.
There were a few people around taking photos, but nobody I knew.silverblur

Hey is that the guy who overrevved into 2 at TMP and you can see a piston ring come flying out the tailpipe (last cut in the vid)?
Good editing.
EDIT: Oh ya, that's the one;

I don't post often here but here's my trackday video from Calabogie last year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIL-0MDhdMc&list=PL7FAC41828F05D909&index=1&feature=plpp_video I have July 28th, 29th book again with Pro 6 and Mosport August 20th. Anybody are going those dates too?

Yeah, he said something like "I guess you guys are buddies, eh? If you were out there alone and took each other out, fine, I'd let you go at it, but with other people out there, just... you know...". It was pretty fun, until my bike dropped out of 4th gear in the middle of turn 1.
Wow, this thread hasn't been touched in 2 years. Here's a new video from a few weeks ago.

Looking nice and smooth Dave.
Here's mine. I know I need to work on my throttle smoothness.

Nice, looks good. That must have been very annoying with the messy turn 6 that day. I love getting on the gas hard out of turn 5, probably my favorite part of TMP. If I could make a suggestion, it looks like you're having a hard time getting your body position right after hard braking into turn 1 and turn 2. I like to set my body position before I start my hard braking.
Skip ahead to 1:40 in this one to see what I mean.
