Well lookie here! I was the one in full view of the ass smackin', since apparently mine wasn't moving enough. (My ex would probably say the same thing, but then again, that's why she's the ex.)Anyway, great to see you here. I learned a LOT from you yesterday, and can't wait to get back out on the track and put it to good use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supergirl Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 I am glad that i could help!!Hahaha, that's too funny!! Did you actually see my duck-dance like elbow movements when i was trying to show you to relax the inside elbow, hahaha. i must look funny doing all that.Your lines were just great in the next to last session, and you guys picked up the pace quite a bit. I hope you continue to improve as quickly!!At the end of the day, the Event Director asked me: "did you have a good group"and i said "I had a GREAT group!!"Keep up the good work ;-)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbot Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 oh god, who let HER in here?jaaaaaay kaaaaaaayhi teaoh, and gingerman was pretty awesome-0. my sunday was a relaxed yet face meltingly awesome day of learning the track, then learning how to pass at the new track, and then picking up speed after I managed to find some real estate in the very packed intermediate group.the seams can be ignored from what I could tell, unless you're running the exact same path they go, ON the seam, which only happened when I took a shitty line coming out of turn 1. It upset the rear just a little, but the tire caught shortly after that, dirty underwear averted.got to hang out with rslo, trmin8r, blue. Rob, thanks for driving. you're a damn champ. i could barely keep my eyes open after my first track day so I was very impressed you didn't kill us on the long drive home. also got to chat it up with skrewloose, rvt, r1lover, and a couple other guys. I didn't see too many other OR guys, although I think Harb, APC, and redkow stopped by. Very nice to meet/see you all.When's the next one?

I improved a lot. Also fixed the bike up relatively easily. First thing I did was removed those "feelers" on the pegs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoblick Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Tea thanks for the great day,, the time i was in your group i found you very helpful. at the end there i had to get away from the group and get a faster pace. i was the one in the dirt/sand trap on the last turn lol .. guess i should have stayed in the group lolagain your advice helped alot, and thanks for the great body position modeling.. even though you looked like you werent to comfortable hangin there while the older guy was explaining things haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Tea!! Glad to see you made it in here! Your instructions were extremely helpful. The two biggest things I took away was to get off the bike more (like you had said) and to keep my inside elbow in on turns. I'm sorry again for the 'take off' in the later session but hopefully I made up for it on the following one so you could provide some feedback for me. I very much enjoyed getting let loose the last couple sessions. I was actually able to put some up shifting/down shifting and braking into practice. I now actually have to get it out of my head to break with two fingers. I would get some good speed down the back and front straight and then wind up scrubbing too much speed off.

I needed to get off more according to my superwomen track coach, Tea. I'll call ya and give you the low down on the track and how the new tires worked.

I would get some good speed down the back and front straight and then wind up scrubbing too much speed off.That's what the 3rd gear-no brake drill is for. Try it out next time again Generally it's better to scrub off more speed, than go in way too hot and chop the throttle, transferring all the weight to the front wheel. *might* become too much for the little fella Didn't I tell you to get off the bike? Did you smack your @ss? Tea thanks for the great day,, the time i was in your group i found you very helpful. at the end there i had to get away from the group and get a faster pace. i was the one in the dirt/sand trap on the last turn lol .. guess i should have stayed in the group lolagain your advice helped alot, and thanks for the great body position modeling.. even though you looked like you werent to comfortable hangin there while the older guy was explaining things hahaHanging off for that long on a stationary bike gets into your legs quickly I'm so glad you guys enjoyed your track day in Gingerman. Now go ride your bike on the street. It will feel soooo much better!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRMN8TR Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 So I found some great pics of me...with really shitty riding position. The old dude doing the talking during the novice "classroom" time was pretty much right. I felt like I was Stallone in Cliffhanger, but more like I was just pointing my ass at the ground. Definately have some things I can work on at the next track day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVTPilot Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Right there with you. I need to get off of the bike a lot more. And that old dude is fast as shit too, from the two STT days I have seen. He gets around on the SM like its on rails. Maybe the other STT coaches here can confirm or deny it, as they see him all the time. But he impresses me both on the track andtalking to him off of it.
