Welcome aboard. Lots of racers here and folks way more knowledgable than me. If you have never done a track day I suggest you get a few of those under your belt. In fact, you might consider doing as many as you can this season and then plan on racing next season. Once you have gotten some experience on the track you want to sign up for the Penguin Race School at NHMS. The Oldest Motorcycle Roadracing School in the Country! - Penguin Roadracing School

Here are a few of the folks that offer track days at New Hampshire Motor Speedway - New Hampshire Motor Speedway

Fishtail FISHTAIL RIDING SCHOOL
Lean Angle (not sure they're still doing this...no schedule posted) Lean Angle Performance School Home Page
Tonys Track Days 0 TonysTrackDays.com
Seacoast Sport Cycle - Seacoast Sport Cycle - Home
BCM Ducati - BCM Ducati
North East Ducati Owners Club - NEDOC.org - Index

Thats a short list...there are others! But start by cruising some of these websites and you'll get a good flavor of whats out there!

Again..welcome!

welcome hatchet


wow i just noticed Seacoast's 4-16 track day was canceled by NHIS- - hope its not a trend!

Come on down! I applaud your wanting to get on the track. MUCH safer than riding "dirty" on the street.

My first year racing was last year, Had a few Trackdays before that. It is a great time! (expensive but hey you have 2 Ducati's)

These guys (and gals) and everyone at the track are very helpful. I couldn't have done it without them.

Look us up just as you come out of the tunnel most of the people you see as you come out are people from NESR. I pit on your left as you come out.

Oxx's school bus is a dead give away for the NESRians. The only reason it isn't a short bus is that there are too many of us!

Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the site and great to hear some track interest. I recommend, as a non-racer, coming to the track and hanging out, possibly even cornerworking. It is a great way to get to know the track in a whole different way, and talk to the people who are up close and personal with crashes (and maybe learn second-hand how to avoid them). Hope to see you in T1 in April!

Thanks everyone for the great info and and the great welcome ,I would like to meet up with others riders at track days ,it kinda hard going to the track first time and not knowing anyone ,so anyone out there that would'nt mind a new guy on the track, to show what to do

[OreoGaborio]

Hey dude, welcome to the forum! Glad to hear you're gonna be comin up to the track, it's a blast up there

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for ya & introduce myself... a veritable shit ton of NESR members show up on any given Tony's Track Day event & I'm scheduled to work at every single one of em... so between that & racing I'm sure we'll bump into eachother eventually.

Guess everyones panties have been unwound due to riding season being so near........

Owell,


Welcome noobie,now go fuck yourself.........
