Anyone want to prep bikes together? They still make ya drain coolant and safety-wire everything etc? Can't make the 14th but mebbe that 6/28-6/29 event that MendoDave mentioned if ya don't have to go fiddlin around with all the crap... Title: Re: Keigwins - Infineon - 14 May - Who's Going?

See the track day operator's site for rules, but in general they don't make you safety wire. Coolant is easy to do though. Title: Re: Keigwins - Infineon - 14 May - Who's Going?

Now let's hope they move me up into your group ;D Think we can influence one of the instructors? ;) Title: Re: Keigwins - Infineon - 14 May - Who's Going?

[laugh] [laugh] [laugh] One that refers to himself in the third person! [cheeky] Oh, wait... I forgot... Metamucel is now a co-sponsor of Tigerbike Racing. So I guess he is a "regular" man after all.

Post by: desmoquattro on May 14, 2008, 07:13:15 PM Good day out with Wendy, Michael Moore, Tigre, BikerGoddess, and special guest star/mechanic duckwrench13. We rolled in early because of the schedule (had to clear out by 3:30 to let the AMA teams set up), and blocked off a good amount of space in the hot pits for the canopies and vehicles. I was in B-, which for me was fine since I hadn't ridden Sears in over a year. The first few sessions were fun...especially passing 1098's and litrebikes ;D Then Tigre graciously towed me around the track for a few laps before coming in. I learned some new lines and improved, despite a few oh-shit moments.
A very good time. Many thanks to all who came out and made it fun...the Bumblebee Returns! Oh, and I know...This thread is useless without pics. But I didn't fork over the money for the DVD. Call me cheap [moto] Title: Re: Keigwins - Infineon - 14 May - Who's Going?

Title: Re: Keigwins - Infineon - 14 May - Who's Going? Post by: Michael Moore on May 14, 2008, 08:54:03 PM If it makes you feel any better Danny, it really was a hot pit.
During the next to last session I realized I was getting brain fry and was going slower and slower, so I packed it in early. But the morning was great. Title: Re: Keigwins - Infineon - 14 May - Who's Going? Post by: tigre on May 14, 2008, 09:39:10 PM not quite boo boo free...

Post by: BikerGoddess on May 15, 2008, 12:13:17 PM Here's the Bumblebee (http://www.annefrost.net/Images/Joe_SearsPt_051408b.mov) in action yesterday at Sears Point. Here he is again (http://www.annefrost.net/Images/Joe_SearsPt_051408a.mov), about to pass Ducky.

Post by: tigre on May 15, 2008, 10:37:34 PM The paw is healed up "enough." My shoulder is pretty sore, and so is my knee and hip. None of that seemed to matter too much -- I turned in another PR at the track today -- a 1:46.0. I may need to go as much as 0.9 seconds faster... TBD!
