Moto-Brian Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Are you serious? Have you not seen the other thread? This is simply going to end up like it - complete fish stories.I'll start...Laguna. 1:12... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Agree'd,. Dumb thread.. It only takes into account those with a race license and not the track day riders who may or may not be just as fast if not faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kosmo Posted June 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 haha.....gotta work to prove how big fish are ya ?Here is an example for Brandon (Sorry for Stalking ya gixxie750 and not taking your best time....just took you as an example)http://www.wera.com/racers/racerprofile.asp?x=1098&rid=1121882827680http://www.mylaps.com/results/showrun.jsp?id=1468582see Brandon's best time in that race was: 1.07.101Many track days are also timed, if you have a transponder.......

Zorro Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I understand that people may lie...but I just don't understand WHY they would lie. There's no reward for posting lowest times. Bragging rights? Internet cred?! I don't know. I guess I'd be hoping for honesty. It's not like you get free blowjobs for posting the lowest time.

flounder Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Many track days are also timed, if you have a transponder.......Uhm, trackday times are not posted anywhere.. Thats my point. You still have to rely on the person to tell you what it was. How else do you think people are getting their times anyway???Technical fix but .. the transponder generally sits on the wall at the track where someone has brought one. The rider, has the "receiver" aka the lap timer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gixxie750 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 yea its deff possible to prove it when racing. I am 1,2,3 8 lol. Man i better get to a race in june!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Well, I just got home an hour ago from Australia.I was running 1:19's at Phillip Island.It was really breezy from the wind coming from the ocean shore, but the bike was strong and my crew was really on point with the bike today.

Not a one track day runs a transponder system... Now, if you are referring to a lap timer, I will start again.Mid-Ohio - 1:23. Winnah.

Moto-Brian Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Uhm, trackday times are not posted anywhere.. Thats my point. You still have to rely on the person to tell you what it was. How else do you think people are getting their times anyway???Technical fix but .. the transponder generally sits on the wall at the track where someone has brought one. The rider, has the "receiver" aka the lap timer.He's referring to a transponder we use for racing. It crosses buried wires in the track at the start/finish... Again, not a single track day provides timing for the customers...Practice day for a race weekend? Yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Punk Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 I have been to Nelson on a Friday night to run a trackday and timing was available. This was after the cars were done for the day. It was a race weekend and I was not racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's funny shit right there...i get your point, but this begs the question.....why do you care so much? the most laughable thing about either of these threads is that you're the only one making a big deal about it and cant seem to let it go. got over it, already. nobody wins a trackday.....especially by checking for fastest times on message boards.

flounder Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 None are. Not a one track day runs a transponder system... Now, if you are referring to a lap timer, I will start again.Mid-Ohio - 1:23. Winnah.You lose.. I saw Cory's timer which reported a 45 second lap time, and a 1:16, one time. I saw the pic of the timer so it much be true.. Right..I even think you were there the day it happened :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkow97 Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 (edited) Not a one track day runs a transponder system... I seem to recall looking at a TD org that would prove you wrong. They were advertising 'free timing' for all participants, and were planning to use the data to shuffle riders up or down a group. Someone on the NESBA forum suggested that NESBA do the same, and there was a lot of, "no! don't do that! insurance doesn't cover me at 'timed events!'"But there is at least one TD provider who does it; I just can't remember who...**edit - CCS offers free transponders at their trackdays. i realize they're a race org, but this isn't their races. And this isn't the group I was thinking of; just the first one I found when I searched. It appears that Streets of Willow rents transponders for $30 when you do one of their days as well.

Winnah.See, this is how the big fish stories start...just post a real time Troublemaker! It's bragging rights. Big dick swinging contest of sorts. Hell, I have seen guys on sites SAY they ran a certain time and provided a video that is several seconds slower. That's funny shit right there...yeah...people will lie but when you start thread bashing/jacking before any times are posted...well, the thread is already in hell. last I saw, you werent on the list of moderators...so why even add your two cents? not trying to be a smart@ss...but figured I'd give you crap since you blew me off about 6 times for your free mtn bike lessons.

It was a race weekend and I was not racing.Are you telling me they offer to rent out a transponder to you to strap on your bike and will offer you times out there in a TRACK DAY setting? Or, are you confusing a transponder being put on the wall for people with lap timers?Clear that up first and we will go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 i get your point, but this begs the question.....why do you care so much? the most laughable thing about either of these threads is that you're the only one making a big deal about it and cant seem to let it go. got over it, already. nobody wins a trackday.....especially by checking for fastest times on message boards. Uh, you're an idiot... I'm basically saying these threads are stupid and pointless. Same as you... Maybe we are both idiots?I care because track days don't allow timing as done under race days. If they do, they won't for long once someone wads some shit up and goes to the ER and their insurance company finds out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
