Any pics of fast group ? Blue r1 with gold rims number 47
It was great riding with the quick guys in the fast group on Sun, first time at TMP so it was huge seeing how you guys attack the corners, learned a lot! I hope the white kawi with white rims (#878 ) wasn't to much of a pylon for you guys.
Took a couple of sessions to get the flow of the track, but after that had a great weekend, good meeting a bunch of the GTA track guys.
I saw lots of cameras, anybody get pics of all groups?
You were a huge pylon for me. Thanks for letting me stuff you
That sounds so wrong Aliki.
... but oohhhhhh soooo right!! lol.

you weren't in the way, I think I might have you on go pro for a second or two
Hahaha, yep, a second or two sounds about right. That's about how long I saw your bike on the straights!
And I understand your need to 'stuff' me Aliki, just getting me back for turn 1 at Calabogie last year :evil4:
Now we are even!!!!!

Anyone have any pictures of the all blue gsxr in beginner group from Mondays session
Was that the one that nearly highsided every other lap coming out of the last turn? A couple times he was right out of the seat.
Rough throttle application, and sudden squaring off of the corner to an un-natural line, had it running out of tire.
Nexttrackday, find a control rider and follow him/her around for a few laps.

Re: Blue Gsxr highsiding
I was cringing every lap.....worried that it'd get ugly at the wall. I am not surprised at all that you grounded out the brake pedal.......you were leaning yourself completely out of tire a number of times, AND hammering the throttle to boot! You got lucky.
I was riding today so I didn't take any pics....I never do...I can't even turn a camera on,LOL...That's my wife's department.
If that was only your 3rd day, you were moving along pretty good almost everyywhere else. I was watching you for some laps. I noticed after your big pucker moment outta the seat, you started waiting to gas it coming on to the straight. It helped you not to get the bike as squirrelly, but a better remedy would be more body english, wider line out towards the wall, while smoothly feeding in more throttle as you stand the bike up onto the fat part of the tire. Same results (no fall down go boom), but faster laps, better drive, bigger smiles.
If we are at a trackday together, by all means come and chitchat......and then we can play around on the track. If you get the chance, go for a track walk after a trackday. You can see things that you never would have at 100 mph. It helps alot.
