Here's some more pics of you, and a few of the R6. I've got a few more of the R6 if your buddy wants them. I looked through all the photos again, and I only have one shot of you. Better then nothing I suppose!

Likewise, hopefully we'll bump into each other at another TD. :) Are you one of these two? Was that the one that says GO GO GO!!!!!!!!! on the side? I didn't get a chance to come over and see it close up, but looks like a clean bike! Is he on here? Since you asked :D

My day went pretty well. Took me a while to get upto pace, what with the CBR125s crashing left and right, and the puddles in the exit of corner 1 for the first few sessions. I was also sore the entire day, after straining my back earlier this week. Moved upto intermediate after lunch, and...

He is. More pics/videos coming soon! :)

Hyperpro RSC. I got it used off of R6-forum last year at a good price, and wanted one before I hit the track. Not my choice of color, but I painted both brackets black, and pulled the stickers off of the damper. TMP is pretty bumpy, and there's been a few times where I was glad I had a damper...

I'm officially booked. See you guys out there! :) Come say hello, bike says PANICI right on the front.

Re: TMP August 25th (Thursday) Wow this thread went to **** while I was gone. Doesn't GTAM have any mods? --- Anyways, I just checked, and the last day for pre-ordering @90$ is tomorrow (Monday) at 5PM. If the weather forecast holds tomorrow afternoon, i'll be booking.

There's two sessions on the 25th. Day session, and then 5PM-dusk. I plan to be at the day session, weather permitting. :) (Probably my last TD this year) Anyone else going to be there?

I was just about to book, but then checked the weather. Saturday was already a no go for me, and now Sunday is out due to rain. What other TMP trackdays/evenings are being held this month? I know there's the Thursday 25th session, and also an evening session on the 25th.

Couldn't have said it better. If I see them early enough where I can stop safely, I do pull over and help.

I think it's a combination of camera angle, and the fact that I'm pretty slow on the track. (Still a newbie!) With corner speed comes lean angle, which means (for MotoGP riders) you can't be off the bike as much. At the moment, i'm more comfortable in right turns, and I can get my knee in...

You know what? Who cares if you happen to deal with an *** hole. I'm willing to take that chance if it means I can help out someone who may end up really appreciating it. Don't let a few bad apples dictate how you act.

Looks like classic target fixation to me. "Oh ****, I really don't want to hit that striped curb/coping". *Looks at coping* *Runs straight into it* I've done the same thing when I first started riding.

Earplugs all the time for me. Sometimes when street riding, I'll use a set of earfuze molded noise-canceling earbuds I have. Only $45, and they work great under a full face helmet.

Sucks man. I always bring my gear with me for this reason. You never know who's out there.

Hard to say with the center stand, but if I saw someone's bike in danger on the sidestand, I wouldn't hesitate to stick something under it.

My Canadian Tire canopy bit the dust on the 17th @ TMP. Winds picked up while I was on the track, and I came back to a collapsed canopy. (I had all four corners weighted down). One side actually bent in a few spots. I'll try the Wal-mart one next, based on this thread.

Ah, gotcha ;)

Ah gotcha. I kinda went the reverse on that one. Worked on BP from day one, and it's finally where I want it. Now I get to learn how to go fast. ;) Better to go slow while hanging off then go fast while on the bike no? I'd always like to have that extra lean angle available so when I **** up...

I'll get there. I'm still a slow mofo. That day was the quickest i've run so far though (in my 5 TDs so far) I'm still registering for beginner next day. Have some other issues I want to fix before I push for more speed. Sorry that you feel like i'm "posing". I just really like to post...
