CBBaron Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 I really wanted to do this but Im not going to be able to get the day off. Is anyone doing Nelson's that weekend? I'm considering doing that instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Anyone else doing their first track day? I have no idea what to expect. Would be nice to have someone in the same boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trackbikez Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 If the weather is nice, I'll be there as a walk-up. Maybe stay for the 22nd too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Ok, I am in. According to Mid Ohio's website a Modular helmet is ok. Can any of you veterans confirm this. Are we ok on garages? I will certainly contribute to one....or get one and accept contributions (or handies). And how do we get garages together? Going to IP tomorrow night. I need to figure out what size I am if I am going to rent. But for 350 I will probably just buy one and use it when I am smoking everyone on 536. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get a garage reserved tomorrow. I think Andy and Jamie were down to share with me. You're welcome to join in. Could get one more in there. I'd recommend someone else get a garage and grab the rest of the folks to join in. I can request that our garages be next to each other. I don't expect that to be an issue.

Tonik the ixs seems like a decent suit for that price, but you kinda need a quirky body habitus which I think you might be lucky. As in lean small torso and lanky limbs. For me that was perfect. I had to go one size up. I am usually size 50 euro and needed 52 in this. If you have long upper torso compared to legs might be tuff fit. Regarding head count, wish I could make it. But still waiting for some parts on triple. Don't think it will be here on time hence I am most likely out as last minute novice most likely will be sold out even. Have fun ride safe people.

A buddy came last time on his BMW K1600 and had a blast. Damn thing had satilight radio! Understand if you want to do it on the street triple though...

Take off the broke stuff and ride it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should still come out and hang out with the folks and take some footage! Bring out the DSLR or you can fly my drone.... Also could lend you my gimbal for a gopro also. 1 hour ago, Tonik said: I signed up, Dome of Hate is in full effect. We are fine. I also signed up....

NinjaDoc Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 @jacobhawkins keeping the FJR clean for good resale. I am keeping it washed and waxed after every ride. dont have to be that anal about striple from now on @DerekClouser for sure, i will try to come by to pay a visit to all hoORigans if at all things line up. @Tonik not just plastic, bend shifter and slightly bend handle bar, i am getting new since even if i bend it back its not going to be accurate i guess.

Might be OK when no bikes are on track (early morning, lunch). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonik Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 I'm good with that rule. Don't need no drones around while I am going 100+. Especially if @NinjaDoc is driving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
