LOL, always room for improvement. It was my cool down lap :p. GF had me at 2:03's. No idea how slow that is for Shannonville. Couple of the SOAR guys with us said some corners I was charging, some I was braking too much.

LoL - and getting bucked on that entrance bump! I went wide on the hairpin, which gave me a pucker because it drops off a little before the curbing on exit and there were marbles in there.

1-2 feet would cross up your bars pretty good, and if sudden, could launch ya. Is your rear susp setup? I've had the rear feel like it's wallowing but rather than it being the tire slipping, it ended up being suspension/rebound issues.

We were there in eve on Sat. What a surprise having new asphault on the track. Did find some of the new stuff a little on the slick side. T1 is sooo smooth now.

This non-sub-1:20 rider agrees!

Several years back, I was at a Golo trackday. Spent most of the day with one of the marshalls, very fast fellow on a Buell. The main thing that stuck was him saying to first and foremost focus on increasing corner speed, that's what will make you faster. When I got out to track days, that's...

T4 after the crest made my front light with a hair of throttle. Rolling off over the crest to keep the front weighted helped. Wouldn't want to tuck it there.

Ooops I meant down to 3rd for T10, not T3. I need truck nuts for T4. Are you fast boys on the gas over the crest?

Argh... good to know. I found for me shifting down 6-5 for T8, then 5-4 for T9, then 4-3 for T3 worked. Mosport kicks ***.

I use this mount on my windscreen: The rubber thing doesn't fit in this mount (that I can figure out anyway).

Your camera looks pretty solid. My camera was shaky. I'll see if the youtube encoder can help smooth is out and put some laps up.

We fluked out with great weather. How T.O. got hammered and we only had a light sprinkle in the morning is crazy. I really liked new patches. I didn't like threading the needle on the concrete last year. Turn 1 scared me when running the new patch on the outside. There was a bump mid corner...

TMP may be 2-3x cheaper, but Mosport is like 10x better :p Calabogie is another must-do. It's worth the drive. You'll still have fun at TMP, but it doesn't compare to the other two.

Like the others mentioned, it's fine for even a first timer. Just get out with the control rider, then go have fun at your own pace, like any other track.

My R6 stock was sprung much heavier in the rear. As said, it comes as a street bike with a passenger seat. Sprung heavier for a passenger. Now with is sprung for me only, it rides crappy with a passenger. This double duty bike thing is a pain.

That's got some nice stuff in it. Racetech internals on a conventional fork (non inverted) is awesome. There is nothing wrong with having a tricked out non-inverted fork. I read some forums about second gear having some issues on popping out with some bikes that were abused or wheelied during...

Ferodo Race 211 pads New NGK plugs Boring, but needed to be done. Probably replacement tires soon. Just DRC's. Work good enough for my slow ***.

I always thought loading/unloading the bike by yourself was the only way?! Guess I need to make some friends.
