What i consider a track walk is you walk around the track with some one that knows the track, seasoned racer/instructor and the show you lines, brake markers, entry and exit points etc. So im guessing you'll be doing it with someone affiliated with ducati.

What be that? ??? hell, if it's super hot. Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: zenjim on July 16, 2010, 08:19:19 AM hell, if it's super hot. Forecast is high 60s, no clouds. But that's probably Monterey, by the coast. Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: zenjim on July 16, 2010, 09:22:42 AM OK, not sure, but after a deeper dive in google - I think it's just a time to walk the track. My guess: It's called Ducati Track Walk like you get the Pizza Hut Half Time Show. Just like no free Pizza Hut pizzas at half time, I don't think Stoner or Nicky will be pointing out reference points or "That a-hole Rossi cut me off right here."

AMA Superbike racer Larry Pegram will narrate the walk, providing insights and strategies for riding the track including the famous Corkscrew section. "

Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: fasterblkduc on July 22, 2010, 02:09:42 PM I did the walk with Polen in '07...it rocked. Two hours of him telling stories and walking every inch of the track. Pegram is a total spaz...cross your fingers Polen ends up doing it.
Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: Grampa on July 22, 2010, 07:08:47 PM nope..... it's John Hopkins that's scheduled for the walk.
[laugh] Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: zooom on July 23, 2010, 01:06:59 AM nope..... it's John Hopkins that's scheduled for the walk. [laugh] in that case, it'd be a crutch Hoppin' good time or a "push John down the corkscrew in his wheelchair and watch him go as fast as he can and crash" kind of good time! Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: desmoquattro on July 23, 2010, 04:00:42 AM nope..... it's John Hopkins that's scheduled for the walk. [laugh] No, you're thinking about his race pace...on the Suzuki. Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: derby on July 23, 2010, 06:57:10 AM No, you're thinking about his race pace...on the Suzuki. i'd say your jokes are getting old, but that'd be generous.. Title: Re: Laguna Seca Ducati Track Walk Post by: zooom on July 23, 2010, 07:08:20 AM i'd say your jokes are getting old, but that'd be generous.. only as old as the idea of Hopper crashing....hence why I think it'd be fun to set him asail in a wheelchair from the top of the corkscrew. |
