Hollywood33 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Well, as I said in the Motoseries Cancelled thread, my buddy Brian and I are headed up to Gingerman on Sunday to do a track day with Sportbike Track Time since the first Motoseries round at Nelson has been cancelled. I need to freakin ride so bad so I signed up immediately after I heard about the cancellation. The weather up there looks good for Sunday, high of 58, partly cloudy/sunny, 10% chance of rain. Just wanted to throw this out there in case any other OR or Motoseries members would like to join us. The more the merrier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood33 Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Did STT get rid of the membership requirement for track days?Yup, it's $160 with a membership, but still only $170 without one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APCh8r Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Yup, it's $160 with a membership, but still only $170 without one.Yes but if you plan on doing multiple days with them and want the two day discount on certain weekends you need the membership. Something to keep in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madcat6183 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Would've loved this event, but oh well. I just requested to leave early Friday's for the Nelson events I can make, so should be running all 3 days those weekends. Hoping some others can make it Friday too.Have fun up there, weather is looking better by the minute. We have a late model race tomorrow night at Attica too so hoping it doesn't rain out. 2K to win.

Hollywood33 Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Anyone know what kind of lap times guys run at Gingerman? Like generally what's a fast pace, medium pace, and a slow pace? Just trying to get a general idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natedogg624 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Similar times to Mid Ohio in comparison. 1:30-45 would be top pace1:45-2:00 would be I pace2:00+ would be novice. Of course, times are all relative to how clean your lines are etc. Have fun with the seams... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood33 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Have fun with the seams...Shit, this is what everyone keeps telling me! Can't be as rough as Nelson, can it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood33 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Fuck, you guys are freakin me out. Whatever, I'm just gonna go and ride and not even think about it.I would consider Beaver, but it's like $195 without a memebership plus a $30 late registration fee I believe. Screw that. Plus I want to check Gingerman out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRMN8TR Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 With all the money they spent putting the addition on the track, don't know why they couldn't have filled in all the seams while they were at it. On another note, don't get it in your head that the seams are going to be the death of you. I noticed the seams when I went over them but they never bothered me. Of course that was the first track day I ever did so my pace may have been a bit slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue03636 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 The things with gman and nelsons it that you must remove high speed compression. I have had the same issue at both places and talked to a few suspension peeps and they all told me the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
