    who here has attended a trackday?

    My best is a 1:29, and I can run 1:29s and 1:30s with some consistancy, but nothing lower yet. I know a number of places I can get faster, but just havent yet.

    Re: who here has attended a trackday?

    Just went to Penguin School on the 8th. Who else was there?

    I ended up slipping a rear wheel on turn 2, then catching again, then, wait for it, CAUGHT and high sided... No big deal. Frame Sliders did their job and so did my helmet.

    Got back on the rainy track right away.

    I like trackdays so much I gave up the street for it. However, I will eventually get back on the street again, only it will be on a cruiser.

    Haven't been to one yet. Hope that changes next spring. Seems like a good opportunity to get better and have some fun.

    Can I change my vote? I originally voted no when this thread started back in 07.

    I wonder how the numbers have changed since this originally came out.
