Wondering anyone will be going and bringing a camera, not riding in the intermediate group?

I am hoping someone can help me take some photos while I am out there, in return, I will use my A6000 with 75-210mm lense and take pics of you too. Hopefully get some nice photos at the end of the day?

Ah! That's awesome. Thx for letting me know! Can't wait!
 
Off topic but related to the same track day.

Could I possibly use someone's generator tomorrow and Sunday to plug in a fan? The feeling of putting on a sweaty helmet is like dunking your head in sweat; I'd really appreciate an outlet to power the fan so I can put my helmet on it lol

Leave it upside down in the sun for 15min after you ride but get it in the shade for a bit before you need to go back out so you're not cooking your melon.

Its gonna be cooking and i am excited! hot tires and bright day, i don't care how wet my helmet is, its gonna be awesome!
 
I always do that to dry my helmet at the end of a race weekend. Leave it out for a bit while packing up and you prolong the funky smell.

Before I used fans... I would throw a bonji corde over one of the top canapy bars. Use the bonji hooks to hook them to the chin loop and hang it under the canapy.
Wind blows nicely through it and helmet is away from the sun ;)

We will be there Sunday. I will have 3 canopies setup. Should be easy to find us Sunday. 3 riders and 5 bikes (#14, #141, #112 and #44) on the bikes).

I will have shade and a generator running.
 
Photos were taken by Marcel from finalvelocity.ca. Thanks Marcel for the awesome pics. There was another photographer but I forgot his name.

I had a great day yesterday in stage 4 training with Andrew Nelson. Was well worth it as I got specific tips to make me smoother/faster, which was exactly what I was looking for in an advanced course. Last time I was on RDT track was on a 125cc with racer 5 stage 1. Very technical track and really challenged me.

Thanks Fawaz and Sheereen for a well organized event as always. Racer5 track days are just that: TRACK days. No one was there to prove anything and all the riders were well behaved. Hope to see you all again in August.

Oh and thanks to the red triumph rider who noticed my rebound needed an adjustment!!
