Opinions?

    E-mail does nothing when the response has always been "we'll look into it".

    BINGO! I rode the entire day yesterday in steady rain and didn't have a single slip in T1A.

    How many of these crashes were on the second lap (since you don't cross the white line on your out lap from pit out)?

    I rode 5 sessions with BOMO on the 29th in the dry and never even knew it was there.

    I heard Eric Wood mention it later, and when it rained on Wednesday (yesterday) I thought for sure we would have a crashfest.

    In the end, I think we put about a total of 60 bikes on track yesterday - roughly 6 hours of wet track time - and no Turn 1a crashes.

    (lots in Turn 2, but that's pretty normal)

    It was 11 and 2 that claimed 99% of the "victims".

    Should we blame that on the line in 1A? :

    Re: NO NEGATIVE POSTS IN THE CHATROOMS GUYS

    I'm confused here....I'm under the impression that there was an additional white line added somewhere after T1 in addition to the lines near the pavement transition going into T1.

    Are the only lines in question the ones on the old pavement?

    yup, i'm sure it was the cause of your crash though. threw you off in 1A and you just never fully got back together?

    something like that anyways.

    I found it, ran over it a bunch of times, and never once felt any slippage, even in the first couple of damp sessions on the 29th.

    I was running older Dunlop qualifyer street tires on the 600r too. maybe it's a tire issue?

    I'm sure it's the white line in 1A that caused my engine to grenade going into the bowl...

    mental note, purchase a decal with "Jim Sucks" and put it on the tail of the SV.

    Exactly. I didn't notice it then either, didn't know about it until the Sat rider's meeting when Eric Wood mentioned it.
