The Grange track out in Apple Valley charges only $30.00 all day.  The will also let you camp for free in the parking lot/paddock/pit area.   waytogo

I was out there on my YSR50 mixing it up with the 450SM's one day.  It was pretty hairy!  Shocked

They were totally cool, though and only passed us on the straights, or the outside.

It's pretty crazy to have your knee on the ground, both ends wiggling around, and have a guy come around you all crossed up, boiling the rear tire!  laughingdp  Fun times!  [moto]

See how easy that was?

Looks like a lot of fun.

My next bike will probably be something similar

Curious how it's going so far....I'm really wanting to get some track time/school/instruction....but I'm not financially ready to make the "dedicated" track bike buy.

Since I can't afford to rebuild my monster if I throw it down (and don't believe in reporting a track crash to insurance), I have no choice but something less $$$.

I'd need about 600$ including the tires to make the katoom track worthy, but I'm concerned that it's not going to have enough top-end to get down the straights.  I'm not looking to go warp 9, but I don't think buzzing the thing at redline for a minute each lap will be good for the motor.

CMP is where I would run it....do you find the DRZ sitting on the limiter for ever to get to the next corner?

Thoughts?
