well, i got 1 session in. during my 2nd lap of session 1 my chain skipped several times as i got on the throttle. pulled out back to pit and saw the axle adjusting bolts were loose and my chain was hanging looser then the flab on fish's belly. tightened that shit up and went back out for session 2. still phucked in the head from last years low-side and was pussy braking. so sad...
started suiting up for session 3 and the rain starts coming. so that's all i got all day. the chief however is an animal. he went out every session wet. in the afternoon, after the 1pm session nearly every advanced rider left or was done for the day. so stt combined the intermediate and advanced sessions making 40 minute session! that crazy ass chief went out for 4 40 minute session finishing 1 from start to finish. the other 2 he came in to defog his visor, but he immediately went back out.
phucking crazy ass dood that chief is...

Damn, sorry about the rain. It kept me inside as well. And there is no stopping the Chief after what we went through to get him ready for his track day.
1 new rear tire 1 new master cylinder 1 new set of SS brake lines 1 yet to be delivered master cylinder A day at the track with friends, priceless.

I had a blast. I am a little sore today
. My right foot is killing me from the peg digging into the ball of my foot turn after turn. ACC needs more left handers . The main things I wanted to work on was body positioning, braking and lines, all you can do well in the rain . It was slicker than an ice rink out there when it got wet, any extra throttle and the rear tire spun. Hard braking down the front straight to the kink and you would get chatter and spin. As Mao said, with all I went through to get this thing ready, not a chance I was going to sit down Saturday. It could have snowed and I would have still been out there. I wasn't going to be a dick and get on the track if no one else went on first. Brian told me that CRs had to go out there if at least one guy went on the track, so I at least made sure I wasn't THAT GUY, I would be that second guy . I guess they were all tired and abandoned this idea by the last session and I had ACC North all to myself . It was shocking to look down at the speedo when it was raining and see that I was still hitting 110 in the wet down the straight . It was cool seeing lots of 2WC, CLSB, and CR folks there. We did all just get along . Thanks a ton for the ride Brian. BTW, how was the Harolds Chicken ?
I am definitely going to try to work another day or two in, hopefully the weather will be better next time. Felt real good scuffing up those knee pucks and sliding my leg over a rumble strip like a MotoGP champ . 170 high rev miles on the engine Sat. .

The Chief was a fucking madman!
You wouldn't catch my ass in the rain let alone in the rain for 40 minutes. Not to mention him being the only rider in the track as others have mentioned. He definitely got his moneys worth on Saturday.

Yeah, some guy was in Novice and I guess got tired of the drills and slow speeds and peeled an I sticker from someone else's bike and put the B sticker on their bike. The problem arose when the guy from I went on the track during an I session and was told by the gate man he couldn't get on because he was in the wrong group .

that crazy ass chief went out for 4 40 minute session finishing 1 from start to finish. the other 2 he came in to defog his visor, but he immediately went back out.
