Title: Best riding route to Summit Point?
Post by: Meerkat on September 17, 2012, 02:09:27 PM
A couple of our local celebrities are racing at Summit Point on Sunday 9/23. I am planning to head out there and watch/root for the home team. I have a somewhat uninspired route planned out and thought I'd pitch it out there to see if someone could spice it up a bit. Here's mine...show me yours.

Here is the schedule for all those interested.  Races start after 12 noon and is pretty intense from noon till the last race.  Back to back races.

That is awesome you are coming up...I am stoked..pretty sure Steve will be too.

I'm in race 5,9, 11, and possibly 16 on Sunday.  Only race 3 on Saturday

Work is kerazy right now (10/1 = start of Fed fiscal year = lots of new policies take effect) so I may be skipping Saturday. Currently calling for 40% chance of rain so I might not be missing much - especially as I'd just do the Solo16 LtWt.

Sunday is a different story - weather looks good and a bunch o' sessions. Maybe I can be the sole entry in D Superbike Novice...

We'll see how well my tires from the last weekend handle the awesome power the 800ss is putting down. I estimate at least 65HP!

I may drive up Sat eve...I was thinking the same thing since I would only run 1 race Saturday.  4 races on Sunday  [clap] [beer] ;D ;D

Might be a little chilly overnight so bring your jammies! Morning practice will be pretty cool too I bet - more O2 = more powah!

I am a solid "maybe" right now. My heart's in it but the honey-do list has grown. We'll see what I accomplish Saturday...

Should anyone get crazy and decide to follow that route I posted...don't: Featherbed road is gravel. [laugh]
