Chris said he wanted to see you guys this next season. 

[snot]

He is a great guy and a great teacher.

Please keep me updated on this. I'm in if it's a date I can make. I need to get my fat ass out there.

That's if you all are good with having a wide body with an old bike out there.

[NinjaDoc]

Will try to make it, if not to ride at least see you all trackies. Working day like in mid Ohio days will be hard, but still will give it a shot if early heads up. 

[wingman44]

Count me in.

[TimTheAzn]

still waiting on the schedule

[vf1000ride]

Watching for a finalized date.  I would love to come hang with everyone and it's just that much more of a reason to keep my physical therapy pumping so I can ride again next year.

[NinjaDoc]

Does N2 or mid Ohio allow full textiles that can be zipped together? Trying to convince an older gentleman to try at least one track for an experience   and this guy I am sure won't get trackdictted.

1 of them does Doc. I remember reading it on one of the websites last year as I was looking for gear and prepping myself for a future track day. I just can't remember which 1 it was and it was only for novice of course. 

[wingman44]

From Mid-Ohio's rider gear requirements: 

• ADVANCED and INTERMEDIATE GROUP riders must wear one or two piece leather suits designed for motorcycle use. Two-piece leathers must provide substantial attachment between jacket and pants.
• NOVICE GROUP riders must wear one or two piece leather or textile suits. It is recommended that two-piece suits provide attachment between jacket and pants.

Intermediate/advanced also requires a back protector as well I believe.

Assure him he won't be the only "older gentleman" out there if it helps 

[jschaf]

Are you talking about Jerry, Nivin? If so, that would be great.

I believe they are highly suggested.

Nope

• ADVANCED and INTERMEDIATE GROUP riders MUST wear a back protector designed for motorcycle competition in lieu of, or in addition to, the standard back padding in their suit.

[NinjaDoc]

Yep, Inception started  the thought has been planted into the poor soul. Hopefully he will be ready which makes me want to be ready as well

Once you go track I have 50% hope of you returning to street. Unlike Timmy who I had no hope ... 

[what]

Who's going to be acting DP for this shindig? Derek? Doc? 

 

I'm guessing most of the group will be in Novice because of the 2 trackday rule so we may need a couple photographers split between the groups.

 

 

 

 

 

P.S.

Director of Photography. Not the other DP.

I'll still be more of a street guy. I enjoy my long days in the saddle and my oldest daughter is taking a real liking to riding with me. So much so that for her birthday I surprised her with a promise to take her to Deals Gap this summer and a riding jacket. She called it the best gift ever.
