Is there anything I should be preparing for? Having never done a track day, thought I would pick some brains for tips on surviving the day.
I remember my first Enduro, Man was I underprepared... poor tyre choice, blinkers, and no idea what to expect. Anyway I survived that but would prefer to be organised. I have noticed some people have pvc tape over lights etc, Why?

That's in case you have a stack, god forbid, and you don't leave glass all over the track.

Normally you have a colour tape over your light to indicate the group you are in.
Bring tools along to take your mirrors off if you want otherwise they will be taped up by organizers.
First day out I ran 30/30 psi in my tires. This time I might start a little lower.
If you are bringing it on your trailer bring your paddock stand if you have one.

 Let me see what else, big bottle of water and bring your own lunch food is okay out there but not great.

cheers

Should be an awesome day,  I'm looking forward to it. I am gonna trailer everything as well. Less stress and more comfort.

Based on my previous (single) experience, if you are taking a trailer, tape your lights and remove mirrors the night before. Less stress when you get there. .  Umm you may wanna bring Fuel as well Smiley

People were removing/taping their number plate as circuit breakers.. not sure what the  deal with that was. It's not like there's speed cameras.   Grin


I think you might need to put a bar end cap on as well Tri if you remove your mirrors (not sure if you are allowed to have just the bars sticking out the end of the grips).

Tri bring some fuel you will need it last track day I did over 300km so think about how much fuel she eats when you’re up her Shocked

Bring a chair, something to eat as Matty said the food is crap .a hat, ear plugs. Bring something to change out of your leather at the end of the day

Your head light is plastic Tri so nothing to worry about.

The track is not as daunting as it’s made out to be lots of people talk it up. Its much easer than you thing. if you run at you own pace, consider you have 10 mtrs of track width to play with and no nasty surprises coming the other way. Just chill and have a great day you’ll love it.

The fact that you ride a Dirt bike is a bonus, I do some dirt work my self and I can tell you if you have ever been to Belangelo State forest doing full throttle on some of the bends and fire trails while your rear wheel trying to over take you, than you have nothing to fear. the track is a walk in the park. There is no one throwing rocks from their knobblies at you as they overtake.
