Hey that's great! That was probably the politest trash talk back in the trailer, lol! Hope you all have a great season, catch up with you soon.

For those interested, that's http://www.mylaps.com/en/events Results go up really fast, I've been tracking the classes already this weekend, cheering everyone on from the cottage! Dave, you're sandbagging it! Have a great weekend everyone.

Thanks for snapping a couple of Ruby (my bullboxer) dozing in the sun :) She had a great day too!

Hey Mina, sorry to hear about your off. That's a tough corner because people can take a hundred different lines in and out T3, especially when they blow the entry. Unless you are clearly beside or in front of the other rider where Fabi meets up with Long, best to give 'em space and take them...

You're dead to me.

Confirmed with HQ that cookies are affirmative. Recipe, however, remains classified :glasses4:

I'll be there, with the world's friendliest dog!

Hey it's alright having a lot of questions when you are putting that kind of money out for the first time. But most first buyers have a different opinion of "tight" than others who are used to wearing a suit. Riders Choice caters to a lot of track day riders and racers, so I'm sure you got...

May be on par for price, but Riders Choice has the only Bazzaz Principia Dynomometer in the GTA, possibly Ontario. It's supposed to be the shnitz for performance gains. http://www.bazzaz.net/index.php/why-side

LOL, and you're calling *me* old :thebirdman: Looking forward to it! RC usually has a few control riders, I'll be there on my black gsxr750 #15. Hopefully will be a good prep day for SOAR Round 1!

Lol, ok for sure... wasn't meant to be a prod, but I was just continuing your hypothetical scenario. And I don't disagree but at the same time it cuts both ways. Tell Rossi he didn't earn second place in the 2014 championship :) Anyway, I've seen this happen in the RACE series even with the...

Uhhh... sorry didn't add this earlier but also with the qualification points available the rider with the DNF would still win the championship.

Except that there has to be another racer in your example to complete the podium. If he finished 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 1st, 3rd and 3rd, he/she would win with 216 points (and more likely 2nd in the final 2 races, totalling 222 points). Moral of the story, don't crash!

No I'm not debating any of that. But that the facts (as in RACE results) aren't showing that the best riders, on the best machinery available, ever own the Sportsman classes. The trump card is RARELY the bike, and mostly the racer, and in the context of LE/Sportsman ONLY recently when the...

Because machinery is the deciding factor only in Expert/Pro classes, where riding proficiency is closer to the limit of the bike and differences between riders' skills are very small. In support classes, like LE or Sportsman, with many AM/Novice riders, the differences in skill level play a...

Hi Matley, If and when you arrive in Toronto, you can get all the information you are looking for by going to one of the annual motorcycle shows. The Toronto Motorcycle Show is scheduled for Feb 20-22, 2015 http://www.torontomotorcycleshow.ca/ All of the major trackday providers will be...

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the "single event license" is free for the first weekend. That's a nice little boost to anyone who has wanted to try a weekend without committing to a full license, as well as previous racers who have limited their involvement. So a SOAR racer coming as a...

Well as Ken said before, it's about the numbers. As I can't do the full schedule in either series, I'm not renewing my RACE license and instead going to SOAR for 2015. That way I can still race Shannonville but as a SOAR racer, and hopefully help Ken out in the process.

LOL, guess I'm good for one every couple years :) But onto the OP's question... yes I do value advanced training but haven't done any past my first year of riding (street and track). I found that the track courses definitely improved my bike control on the street, and like many, I'd buy into...

That's why before I started racing I took out personal insurance. So when motophobes ask me what would happen to my wife if I died on the track I reply "Two things: she'd be rich, and single."
