Title: We're having a great day 7/26-7/27
Post by: Justin on July 26, 2008, 04:41:46 PM
We're here, having a blast.

Jerome is flying. I can't keep up even though I dropped a couple of seconds.
I got some new tires, so maybe that's why.  Anyway, we're all having a  pan't load of

Don't worry we're saving some energy for you folks that are coming to RFR tomorrow.
The heat isn't as bad as I thought it might be, but drink a lot of water, anyway.

See you here, at RFR.

That was a pant-load of fun.  I had a blast off the track, and plan on getting a stock 93 prelude to drag uphill a couple hundred times.  Then I'll really be Livin' the Dream

Excellent Weekend. Thanks to all of you SSA members who made it happen. Your commint to the club is what made it a fantastic Weekend.  :-* :-*
The heat wasn't as bad as I thought it would have been. The misters really made it cool. I liked all the spectators showing up to.  :o :o
I have to say again You SSA members who volunteered your time Was Sooooooo  Excellent. I just keep thinking how well everyone did in helping with any little thing you could do. Putting up cones to changing signs and moving them down to the Track Exit. Getting tables for check in. Coming down to help even though your back was killing you. Even not to big to pick up the trash and put it in the Trash cans.  ;) We are part of a great club. I'm so moved to be a part of it with you.  ;D ;D

I had a great day yesterday!  ;D I was having so much fun I accidently took an extra lap the last session (oops). I feel I really progressed the last few sessions. Thank you to everyone who made it possible and especially Justin for giving me confidence in passing and telling me to go faster after turn one.  ;D

Word. Thanks to everyone who helped put this thing together. Except now that yesterday was so fun i have a couple options. Cancel all things that make my bike street legal and only do TD's with all you cats, or buy a new bike and make my one now a TD only bike. Jesus, what did i get myself into?   But fun for sure...i will now see y'all at every SSA TD.

    Sunday was the best trackday I have ever had.  I made new friends, talked to lots of people, read a silly sing in turn one just after lunch(A group, RFR having fun too), diced it up with Jerome, Greg, Justin, and a few other old and new faces,  Eric even got his moto out one the track and draged his knee.  
    I guess I really liked getting a chance to talk to everyone at the trackday tech inspection the most.  I got two first time track guys to turn whiter than Greg when I stated, "Your signed up for the A group."  :o Well I thought it was funny.  Thanks to all who attened, see you next time.

I really had a great time on sunday,the event went very smoothly.I have to say thanks to the SSA and everyone who helped run it,one of the better run trackdays that I have attended.Thanks Joe for the cool photos,and nice to talk to ya.I had some friends come to check it out,they had never been before,now my buddy is looking for a bike so he can play too.I warned him that is worse than a crack habit,it costs more,but it is WAAY more FUN,but just as addictive.
Thanks again for putting on a great event...Robbie

Saturday was almost great (I did not ride) and I did'nt make it on Sunday, since my back was acting up. I hate missing events I planned and prepared for. Well there will be more trackdays soon... :( :(

Don't worry Alberto your not alone I was there Sunday but could not ride either.  I had everything with me that day too (Leathers, bike, canopy, drinks, attitude, etc).  It's a good thing I brought everything cuz a guy came to the track not knowing he had to have leathers or motorcycle pants (wearing jeans) so I lent him my leathers.  I'll be there for the next one too!!!!
