Track days

If one wanted to do a track day, would NESBA be the best thing to sign up for? or should i save my money and just find a motorcycle track day? I want to do one in June and NESBA seems like the best group to join. I dont plan on doing a lot of them just a few this summer.

I wanted to make that one, it might even be $125 if they fill it up. I got an e-mail about it. I think I`m going to go on the 26th to thunderbolt also with absolute. I did Lightning for my first time and it was the best moto experience I ever had.

I'm waiting to figure out my transport situation then going to organize to go to some track days. Hopefully should be sorted this week or next.

Less than $500 can get you a suit. Just check out closeouts online and find 2 pieces that zip together. Or you can order a custom suit from spartan leathers for about $500

whats your size?
i picked up a kobe misano in 38 red for $250. great suit, but the leather is really thick (i think its 1.8 or 2mm vs normal 1.3ish) and it takes a while to break it in.

I think Absolute has free suit rentals for beginner riders. Just bring boots. So guy there last time was riding in Timbs with the rental suit. I don`t know how that got by but he did it.

they only have it in 38 its really thick leather so it takes a bit longer to break it in. i really like it, though im a kind of large around hte shoulders so i wish it was a bit looser.
