  1. Fact of the matter is that she is picky and will want it to look good as well. The thing about buying used track plastics is that they always look better in the pics you see then what they look like up close in person. Ive bought used track plastics that looked awesome in the pics and when I got them, I spent a TON of time refinishing them. Besides,, She said she has "ample" money to get them so she might as well get new
  2. DONT DO IT. Remanufactured tires is only suitable for semi's and large hauling trucks. Get a regular tire and save a life. Mods please close this thread as there is zero debating here.
  3. Sara... Get a set of the Optimal Racing plastics. They are more then enough for what you need and get good reviews. Im going to disagree with Lizard and tell you not to get a used set because I know you and you will not be happy with the quality of a used set as they will have nicks, chips, and paint you most likely wont like. Just get the optimal racing set and then if you decide you want them painted you can have attack painter paint them. Unfortunately the shipment coming for your model has been postponed again as they are having a hard time keeping up with demand. You can either google them and maybe find a set or go with another manufacturer, or if you think you will be satisfied (Im telling you that you wont) get used.
  4. Jess,, looks like your really leaning out there.. I would say to work on getting your ass off the seat and getting off the bike more will help you not have to lean as much. The big thing I want to say is. PEOPLE NEED TO QUIT WEARING SUNGLASSES UNDER THEIR HELMET AT THE TRACK. Youre already in an environment which is more prone to crashes. IF you crash while wearing glasses, your helmet WILL move enough to shift or break those glasses and potentially blind you for life. GET A TINTED SCREEN PEOPLE. We spend thousands to buy all this other shit to protect ourselves during a crash and by throwing glasses on under your helmet, you up the chances of blinding yourself 10 fold.
  5. For the people that travel frequently for work it is humorous.. Especially those who travel international.
  6. Like has been said. Its a type of OS and its not like windows, linux, etc. It is its own environment and can be tricky to learn..
  7. There is a plaze downtown called Darz that has an awesome 3-4 different types of cheese and bacon on their grilled cheese.. Its great.
  8. cop was a dbag... and is now paying the price.
  9. Track day Advanced and racing is quite a bit different. The pack of people will most likely keep you from hitting the 36 mark.. I have seen people in advanced running 47's
  10. Women hide their horns between their legs.. Every man knows that.
  11. WTF.WTF.WTF.WTF. Did I mention WTF. Looks like her forehead is taking a shit.
  12. Just support his decisions, you cant force him to get back on and if you do, it will result in him riding badly since he will be scared.
  13. Welcome, Im originally from Crestline.
  14. Is it just me or is there something sexy and dirty about hearing a girl say "my daddy" Have fun at your track day this weekend Jess. Keep the shiny side up.
  15. 36's at mid ohio are moving pretty good.. I think you will find one of your biggest slowdowns will be the other riders in your way.
  16. Ive posted those vids on here before. He is an old dirt rider and definitely has some skills. From everything I have read and learned, there is no time advantage to sliding it as much as he is doing. He is purposely sliding it as much as he can for the vids. There has been tests done that actually show that spinning the tire coming out of a turn tends to preserve tirelife.. this was an old test so I dont know if it still applies with the newer tires.
  17. Understandable.. I probably put 2000-2500 in mine after I totaled it last year just so that I could have it back to track status.
  18. Same link was posted here a while back.. already voted.
