    Crossing the blend line

    Yep, see what you mean, that was slow traffic as you came down the straight, no offence to those riders but they did seem slow for red group. I was novice last season (my first season back after 10 years away from riding) & wil stay novice for the start of this season, besides I don't want to...

    Crossing the blend line

    Oh for sure, I get that but I'm thinking for particular turns such as mentioned earlier where you must be at the left side of the straight etc, just gives you some idea of where other riders expect you to be at any given point. Am OK with other (normally faster) ridersaround me & always try to...

    Crossing the blend line

    Or alternatively they are playgrounds for people who want to learn, are trying to learn, what to do, isn't that why we have novice groups? On another note are there any circuit guides for the Ontario tracks showing the correct lines etc, MCN in England publish a circuit guide covering all...

    Need some advice on trailer stuff

    Well I bit the bullet & bought on of the folding trailers in Nam's opening post last weekend. Went together quickly & easily today, will do the wiring tommorrow. Seems pretty strong when all bolted up ready to use but a bit flimsy when folded up & the castors are terrible, I'll be replacing...

    TMP 2016 Track Day dates

    So, as someone who is newish to track riding (& only started riding again last year after many years of not even riding on the road), who is still pretty slow while trying to learn more & more at each outing & who spent most of last year at TMP with the odd outing at GBM would I enjoy Mosport? I...

    TMP 2016 Track Day dates

    Would love to try 'bogie but have to admit the 5.5hr drive puts me off a bit although the Pro 6 days are on my track day calendar that I have put together, maybe I will make it out there this year & take 'er indoors & my little boy with me to make a weekend of it so they don't feel like I'm...

    TMP 2016 Track Day dates

    I run Q3's on the ZX7 (without warmers) & even though I'm old & slow I can see more cold tearing at TMP than I do on my trips to GBM.

    TMP 2016 Track Day dates

    Thanks Amazon, I've been e-mailing with Tammy @ Red Dawn about the May 26th one, really want to go on that as I've never done a Red Dawn day before but still waiting for work to give me the ok for that Thursday off, don't want to pay & then find out I'm in Detroit that day.

    TMP 2016 Track Day dates

    All good valid points gents but TMP is the only one that runs regular Saturday track days, there are only so many Tues & Thurs I can take off work so it works for me.

    TMP 2016 Track Day dates

    Does anyone "in the know" have any idea when TMP usually update their website to show the track day dates for the forthcoming year? I contacted them earlier this year & they said it would be all up by mid February but still nothing is updated on their site & I didn't get a response to my last...

    Need some advice on trailer stuff

    Ha ha, only problem with that is that I'm an ugly old bugger so I find "significant others" rather hard to come by lol

    Need some advice on trailer stuff

    Yep space for me as well, 'er indoors was very good about losing part of our driveway to my 8 x 16 "workshop" shed but she flatly refuses to have a trailer, open or enclosed also stored in what's left of the driveway. These trailers can fold up & be stored easily at the side of my workshop & its...

    Need some advice on trailer stuff

    Hey Nam, I'm also in the market for the same trailer & I'm thinking I'll just drive down to Milton & pick one up for the $650Cdn. I thought about going the US route but after taking into account $$ exchange rate, gas for your car & your time driving over the border to pick one...
