Pictures from my first track day. (Video added on 3/20)
heres a few pictures from my first track day down at VIR last weekend. that shit was a blast. i ran it with nesba, and i have to say those control riders are beyond helpfull. my first day was saturday and by the end of the day i was bumped to intermediate. the bike worked awesome for me. i have a brembo master cylinder and the galfer superbike lines.. those brakes were fucking amazing... i have about $700 with of stuff on order for my next one which will be april 7th/8th at beaverun. anyone thinking of doing it, i highly recommend it. i seriously doubt my bike will see much more street miles.. a matter fact, if i didnt have a girlfriend, it probably wouldnt..
(trying to squeeze up the inside..
)
one of the control riders got some footage of me that im waiting to get. ill post the link when i get it

Re: Pictures from my first track day.
only if he's racing... if he's just doing track days people will just think he bought the bike off someone who was expert probably

right click and save as. the guy hosting it requested we not kill his bandwidth.
im in front the whole time. keep in mind that in the beginner group there is only passing in the straights... nothing in the turns. there are lots of times i wanted to come up the inside of someone and easily could of, just didnt because it wasnt allowed.
edit: the camera bike is a '06 gsxr 1000 race bike on slicks with a fast mother fucker behind it. he was a cool ass guy and i learned a lot from him. he was pretty damn helpfull.
