+++++for all you wanna be track killerz....
From oil spills to walls moving in the pit lanes.. to totaling expensive brand new bikes on the first TD.. to hitting other bikes in turns and not seeing the guy behind you trying to pass you in the turn/straights, you run like a horse with side sight blinders.. to riding level 2 with rookies just brought up from level 1 trying to be rossis
Please lets all becareful. Bring the bikes back home in one piece and stop trashing us "Street killerz" and accidents happen anywhere anytime. Safe environment my . Less distractions and less risks "YES" but not everything is preventable. I love the track and the street, and insurance is required in either one. Paramedics are on stand by at the track, but that wont prevent you from going down. Sessions are really closed to one another with a quick class and a quick drink for some of us to even have a lil' time to cool off.. and saddle up back to have fun hot and fatigued.. yes it is your responsibility not to get dehydrated nor fatigued.. is it not on the street? Not saying track is this nor that.. no money no time no trailer no leathers not enough effort to get up early nor too far to attend.. we all got our excuses. People dont die at the track.. they just get bruised up. And bikes dont get totaled there either. Lets all watch for one another.. stop trying to prove . I AM SLOW. Any 600 can pass me on any 1000.. I just saw a video of 2 riders behind one of my friends at the track missing their turn and totalling their bikes on the same day.. their physical conditions are unknown to me.. Here it is.. chew me up. I stand for what I believe |

Great post! It's a track day, not a race. And even if it were a race, there's no big money at stake and you gotta go to work on Monday unless you're on assistance or something. So yeah.. Chill. No one really cares who won anyway. If they did then the winners wouldn't be PAYING for their rides in the pro ranks they'd be getting PAID to race.

I dont know a lot about your other questions - but an experienced rider stood up on his pegs and looked backwards during the Mini Endurance race at Eagles Canyon on Saturday and slammed directly into the barrier.
He was transported to the hospital with serious, not life threatening injuries. I was there, heard it happen and saw the aftermath. This was a "race". |

why would anyone chew you up for what you believe... there is freedom of religion in this country and what you believe is what you do. I ride to have fun, period.
When i race it is to have fun not to win...I ride like an old man who has to go to work when the race is over... and i am not a has been, I am a never was. |

The first guy to get to each stop gets paid the same amount of money as the last guy at each stop! Zero! As long as I am safe for myself and others around me I don't give a rat's who passes me. Just do it safely!
