Confirmed today that they are running the big track. Didn't catch exact length, but it's over a mile! Can't wait!

Yep, I'm hoping to pull the person who writes their stuff here into the fun. Because that's what it's about. These are just big, beautiful, expensive toys.

Well, Ducati can't do math. Surprise surprise... The 157.5 kW from their website is 211 HP. But who's counting? Izzy maaaaybe makes 70. Still an awesome bike!

It is enjoytable by riders of all skill levels... I'd take the class there if it was on a Pani, maybe for the returning rider course they'll offer it.

I prefer flexible!

July 2nd works for me, I'd change my vote if I could.

Look at that fancy boy display!

@TimTheAzn, sounds like you have another name in the hat!

Got heat in the shop today. That's more for me than the bikes, but it will make me able to do stuff with them again soon!

This is a great opportunity to come hang with good group of like minded motorcycle nuts. Here is the main thread about the day. No need to have a "track bike", if you get drawn out of the hat and have a street legal bike, it'll work just fine. Tape a couple things up and you're good to go. Can be done the morning of. But I don't have leathers! Not a problem, Mid-Ohio has rental leathers available and your own two piece textile suits are enough to pass tech on your first day. Here is the official Mid-Ohio requirements page, nothing too out of the ordinary from most street gear for the Novice group. It's loads of fun, can't wait to see you there. Big thanks to Tim for organizing this day and for honoring Ryan in such a cool way.

Might want to post this up in the main part of the forum so the real new track people would have an easier time catching this opportunity.

haha That was when I was missing shifts on my first day in I because of that stupid internal clutch part. I deserved to get passed going 95 through the kink!

Yeah man, just giving you a hard time.

I'm liking this guy. Super Duke and big boy car tires in the back.

@snot @Helmutt I'm playing this Saturday, nine to midnight. Have a blood donation scheduled Sunday morning for 6:30. Come race with us!

Favorite part of riding behind Bob is when he jumps on it in the back stretch. Jesus that HP4 can move!

John Corrigan followed me for a session, used his. Have a few laps with those numbers on a friends stopwatch, too. Also, I just count along in my head and that's what I was getting. So poo on you bud! Haha. Can't wait to get out there!

Riiiiight... was doing 47-48s last time. I'm assuming you mean getting passed practice? I'll try not to buzz you too bad.

Cool, we ought to have some fun this year.

What were you running at mid ohio last year?

Timing is great.

Yes. Haha

In. Bringing Katie and hopefully her friend Michelle.
