ya i was stuck on street tires (michelin pilot powers street) also and for the first time can honestly say i was way pushing the limits of it...
I pushed the front at 110 on turn 8 at willow springs and for some unknown stroke of luck didnt wad myself, but definitely had me wishin i had some good race rubber on...

i think i may take off the cage, and downsize the sprockets on one of my bikes for the next trackday... it was waayyy too much fun to pass up..

you're crazy!

racing is WAAAAAY more fun than stunting....stunting doesnt really push the limits for me any more and it certainly doesnt wake my adrenaline gland up in the morning.

kane, welcome to my world, if you wanna go fast, i'll slow down so you can follow me!

for real though, teri g from scorpion and i have some days planned this winter hopefully...we should rip it up

Yeah Jennings is a fun track.. Watch out for that turn 8 though.. I did my track day the stupid way. I took my R1 with crappy cold dunlop tires, stock suspension, geared 3 up so when I let up on the throttle the bike would violently want to slow down. I did however get my knee down 3rd lap on my first track day ever.
