LOL... it's a full on trackday put on by Sportbike Tracktime. I would recommend signing up now if you know you're going to be there. I am going to try and make it for the trackday on Friday, but I'm driving from Texas - in my new TUNDRA, this truck is pimp. I swear to freakin God - it's like driving a lazy boy. And, I can comfortably fit both bikes in the back.

My Track day
$235 - Track Orientation School (full TD with instructors) (Next TD will be $155) $150 - new rear Corsa III $70 - gas in the truck to get it out and back $14 - gas for the bike $15 - food/drink while there TOTAL $484 And I always haul the bike in the back of my pickup. There is room for the ramp, EZ up, chairs, gas can, tool box, tires, misc bags etc. Oh, and I usually find a ditch or something so it's not so steep, and then just ride the bitch in there. |

a 600 isnt too big of a deal, but my kawi is a bitch to get the the bed of a pickup unless the truck is lowered. gotta roll it up til the front wheel is on the tailgate, then pick up the end of the ramp and roll that fucker in there

Check out http://www.ridesmart.info
Absolutely the best track day organization in Texas. The prices are the best of any group I've ridden with. They have leathers, boots, and lap timers for rent too. The tracks are: http://www.texasworldspeedway.com http://www.eaglescanyon.com http://www.motorsportranch.com http://grandsportspeedway.com |
