I'm down with that, since you're curing cancer and all. Though... considering what a sausage fest most track days are, your paddock girls might just be Frank in a bikini.

Update - Brett is out

TPM Trackday at Shenny June 8-9
JoeP (Sunday, B group) + 1 or two more
Chris (Sunday, B group, has truck, needs trailer)
S. Panda (Sat B, Sunday I)
Frank (Sat I, Sunday Repairs  ;D)

Devin - maybe. Trying to figure out how to tow with a Scion
Hap

Joe - does Chris know that he can rent a trailer from u-hual? And what sorta truck - if a Pick-em-up why not load in the bed?

Good question, but it's probably easier to load bikes in a low trailer than have them 4 feet up in a F150. The other two people in my party that wanted to go are not going, so I have space for 1 other bike on the trailer if anyone needs it.

Also, I'm looking to get some leathers before then so if anyone knows a good deal on something in a size 38 let me know. The STG A-stars closeout had some great deals but I missed it.  :'(

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

yes, a trailer would be easier. But with two folks (who know how to do it) a good ramp and step stool loading bikes in a pick em up isn't hard.

Well - you might start hunting around for Technic stuff. Seems they went out a business - so what's left of stock in on super sale
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

Well, I just put my money down. The Grandparents are coming in town, so I have a free n clear weekend. Wee!

Perhaps we should start a little topic sub list of camp stuff? Figure each group will bring their own Shade, chair etc - but something like a grill, onely one is needed...

Since I don't have a grill - I'll bring my tool box. The real one, not just Frank. LMK if there's special tool requests. I'll stock it for KTM and Ducs.

I don't have a grill, but I'll bring slabs of meat to share if there is a grill.

Give Jason at STG a call. He'll hook you up, just ask what he can do even non close outs. I used to frequent 600rr.net when looking for a bike.

a grill is overrated...you can just lay some tin foil over the engine ( or wrap the food in foil) and cook your food on it. I have heard of people wrapping hot dogs in foil...doing a 15 min session on track and pulling it out and putting it in a bun with toppings and VOILA!

Moving out to Brambleton (Ashburn area). Closer to where I need to be on the weekends, including Summit Point.

The house is a bit newer than the one Massimo posted.
