Sweet, you'll love the sv, fantastic bikes. I'm getting the mileage this year already. :)
No problem, helping new riders get going is how we keep our sport alive and well. I was quite impressed at your whole approach to riding, bike choice, looking for help etc. Have fun at the track, learn lots, from this thread alone I can see you've still got your head in the right place to learn. A guy like you will likely benefit a ton from some track time, because of your common-sense approach to things.
Congrats on your soon-to-be new bike, hope to see you around this year buddy.

3rd and 4th photos down don't show any hay bales. It's possible that some were out of view well below the top of that wall ... but if that's the case, that is completely inadequate. They should be as high as that wall, about 3 feet out from that wall, and from the far end of the pit wall to roughly the spot where riders are straightening out, and that many bales should be very visible from that viewpoint.

Choose your track day organizers carefully. Track day organizers - Fix this.

The 3rd photo from the top right where the green bike in the back is thats where they are. That slant in the wall is all lined with bales of somesort
 
The wrapped hay bails were two rows deep running all the way until where the pit wall straightens out. It might not be the greatest but it was adequate.

I'll try to get my pictures up tomorrow.
 
I think someone ever so slightly clipped the last of the bales on Saturday morning just before the lunch break. When everyone broke for lunch they were sweeping some loose hay up along the wall

Maybe I'm nuts... but there are no bales in this photo. If there are, they are very low and very narrow. Certainly not as many as toastman posted up last week and NEWMAN reposted here. Did GWB only run Saturday and Sunday?

The wall curves back towards track entrance (where the kid is standing). The hay bails are there.
