Wow, seemed like I was gone forever. I didn't remember the place being such a dirt hole. It was hot, but we did have a little breeze that helped stir up dirt. The facilities for spectators SUCK! Barely better than Blackhawk.
I was even more impressed than usual by the AMA guys. In-fucking-credible! I was up close and personal in two of the tightest corners and to see these guys come down from triple digits sliding their bikes in and being right on the edge is simply, simply, unbelievable.
Rode the track with NESBA yesterday. It's a nice track, mostly flat, but a few of the corners are banked. Turn 1 is fargin nuts, yes, you can take it 6th gear wide full open. Each time through I picked it up a little more and still seemed like I was falling over mid corner with the corner asking for more. If my skirt wouldn't have kept blowing over my eyes I would have tried it WFO in 6th--yeah I suck.
Spent the rest of the corners letting the frick'n tar patches dictate my lines. Big fargin patches, parellel to the line. Man, I can get that shit on the street, I paid for this???:confused Never got a good rhythm or a good feel for the track but only did 2 sessions on the RC and one on a racer-buddies R6. The R6 was a lot of fun, but definitely need to ring it's neck to keep in the meat of the power curve.
