Shannonville Track Day
- Thread starter Showtime
- Start date
Yes it is a private session. i will only have a specific number of spots available for each session.
But who can do 3 hours of continuous riding?
Not Me !!!
After 20min I'm thankful for the 40min break. (smoking a red meat diet with a blood stream made of coffee). Lol
I did 1 hr straight during an endurance race and it was not easy but probably the best I could have ever done for my riding ability and skill.
With this type of track day, having the ability to go on track anytime you want and stay as long as you want, will most likely slow you down and actually make you practice and pay attention and try to improve instead of feeling like you have to go all balls out because you only have 15 or 20 min.
that's not really the pt.
Having sessions spread out throughout the day makes the day more enjoyable and less stressful.
I guess, but I find it more enjoyable to have it spread out throughout the day. To each their own I guess.
Most i've done is 1:45. Over the course of the past 3 years or so i have been toying with the idea of running a complete 3 hour endurance race with SOAR solo. This would be a great test to see if i could do it.
When I did my very first track day it was an open format and I went out with a full tank and came back in when the light came on and did that 3 times. The next morning I was toast, I could barely move.
I've done a 50min stint in an endurance race with the rearsets adjusted for a much smaller Englishman and it was excruciating. I guess 3hrs would be possible but I think it would be very hard not to push the pace and get tired early.
How do you know you won't prefer it if you've never tried? Beauty part of no sessions is you just go out as you can. I've done mosport and bogie this way and although it's tiring you really get a feel for what's right or wrong. I struggle with some corners and sometimes waiting 40 minutes to go try something else doesn't work for me. Plus it takes away the "Have to be out there or miss the session fear". Esp on the big tracks where you may only get 5-7 effective laps.
I'd be interested depending on the final numbers allowed on track

Yeah endurance racing is a different beast. It's as much mind as it is body. I have been endurance racing for a few years now, and there is no way i would have tried it during my first or second season. Even if the body could take it, the mind would not have been ready.
I may be up for it depending on dates. Thanks
makes sense...never thought about that.
Depending on the dates, I'd be interested.
Evening track time also gives me time to get up there from Niagara.
Keep us posted!
