Post your track videos here.   [moto]

I know there are a bunch of us on the forum that have attended Keith Code's California Superbike School or have on board videos from track days.

Some, myself included are too lazy to do a write up and include the video there, so here is the place to put it.

This is intended to be a non-threatening place for all (fast, slow, or otherwise) to show off his/her track skills.  Please keep all comments to yourself or in a PM to the poster.

Suggested Format-

Track:
School/Track Day Organizer:
Date:

Now lets see those videos!!!  [moto]

they call that bike (one in pict) the camera bike.

the bike with the camera mounted up front to follow riders is called the chase bike.

this camera bike didn't exist before and the chase bike was the camera bike, terminologically speaking.

I like the non-comments thread idea (but welcome feedback in my other thread or by PM).   Here's me:

Track:  Virginia International Raceway Sept, 2008
School:  California Superbike School
Prior track exprience:  two days on my own bike last year at same place and same school.  This vid is second day of two-day school, so this is track day number four total for me.

I'm under two hours from NJ track versus almost six to VIR, so looks like that's next.

They should be on the Thunderbolt track next year.

Keith said that they (NJMP) were not sure if it was going to be finished in time this year, so they booked CSS on the smaller Lightning track.  I felt it was a great track to learn on the new surface was so smooth, with few distractions (crash marks, etc.).

We are going to try real hard to make back there next summer to ride the other track.  Hopefully, on our bikes this time.   [moto]

Hey DD, were you there any days besides the 14th? I was cornerworking on the 12th for CSS. I haven't ridden since then  bang head. I'll let you guess why.
