    Saw the forecast for 4/12 mid ohio track day- no, it's too good... it's a trap, surely something is wrong. I better register just in case.

     

     

     

    Maybe if they repave people would go ride there again.

    I kinda feel bad for anyone that has recently gotten into guns/shooting in the past 2-5 years or so.  I reload for pretty much everything in my collection but the 22lr/22magnum and haven't paid retail in over a decade.  I can't imagine how much worst it's going to get in the next few years as the attempted bans continue to roll in from the government.

    Are manufacturers raising prices or is vance is price gouging? Is the co-worker well off enough that access is worth more than $?

    I've heard of both. Manufacturers raising prices (because they can) and brick and mortar stores also raising prices (because they can).

    The real trick right now is finding anything.

    Anyone prepping/hoarding again for the Minneapolis verdict?

    What are we hoarding this time? Only thing that I'd like more of is 9mm and 223/556 and its nowhere to be found to begin with.

    @bigbluebird teased me with his mention of wanting to get rid of some of his stash. But then he disappeared never to be seen or heard from again.

    Here is a video I took from Nelson last August with Ricky O'Hare, Vasily Zhulin and Stefano Mesa. Mesa and Zhulin pulled away pretty easily but you can see Ricky for a bit before the tow was lost. Bike placement is very important here to open the radius of the turns and carry your corner speed. 

     

    LOL Ricky was all over the place in some parts.

    Race license? No. Race license course certificate? Yes

    I was afraid I may get stuck in Novice but that may be the best way to learn a new track. I’m not sure how much help with lines you would get in intermediate but at some other track day orgs, it seems the control riders are willing to show you. I just put Pirelli SC2 slicks on and am a little concerned the Novice group will not keep them hot enough to get good traction. 
     

    I will send my info into N2 and see what they come back with. I have done about 20 track days and am Advanced at Mid-O and Intermediate with STT. 

    20 track days over the course of how many years? That email is going to me for what its worth lol.

    I've seen what the groups look like at Mid-O these days... ehhhh.

    I am signing up for my first WERA event at Nelson Ledges this year (6/6). I have never been to Nelson Ledges so I will probably be signing up for my first N2 track day (6/4) as well. Anyone plan to be there any of those days that I can bounce questions off of?

    Do you have a race license? 

    I should be there with N2. With it being your first N2 day you'll probably have to start in novice. If you want to try and petition into intermediate without an on-track evaluation you can send your complete track riding history including tracks ridden, lap times, other organizations you ride with and corresponding group, how often do you ride on track a year, etc. Email support@n2td.org
