Title: Buttonwillow
Post by: The Bacon Junkie on June 22, 2010, 03:25:53 PM
Did my first trackday ever at Buttonwillow yesterday!   [thumbsup] 

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did it through The Track Club . com

My little M750 held her own pretty good against those I-4's that had pretty much almost double her horsepower.    [moto]

My favorite part of the whole day was passing a Hayabusa on the outside of the sweeper before the esses!   [evil]
  He (of course) passed me on the straightaway going past start/finish, but I carried more speed through Turn 1 and he blew Turn 3, so I was then able to keep him behind me for the next couple of laps 'til they flagged the end of the session.  :D

I know this doesn't mean much, 'cuz I was in Group C and he had a mohawk on his helmet, but it was exciting just the same.   8)
