err... these are all 120V right? Don't think there's power in the pits. Pretty sure no one else has a generator or warmers. Most of the guys I'm going with are running Corsa IIIs.

i missed the part where they were take off race tires, I thought they were brand new...if they are take offs, and ridden by a racer already, they are good and broken in, just need to be warmed up. Give it a couple laps and you should be straight hun, just dont go out there trying to be Rossi...

I dont run warmers yet, I'd wait a few track days before I invested in those, but if someone has them to loan, go for it...

Kyle is the prime example why most of us don't need race tires or warmers. He ran regular PPs that were pretty shabby and stayed with the advanced guys. Hell he ran with the instructors at Ed Bargy Race School on the same tires not too long after. None of us need race tires yet unless you actually intend on racing. That's why I am sticking with Corsa IIIs unless I can get a good deal on DOTs.

Yep. I was looking for a good deal on anything sticky, then found these for nothing.

haha- Another guy that's going the 6th is running slicks and looking for someone with a generator to run warmers. Of course, I have no idea what bike he'll run, as he wadded up his ZX6R after he got bumped to A.

If you're running warmers you should be able to go hot into the first turn, dude.
