Anyone on here doing this event this weekend?

MAX Motorsport SATURDAY Track Day - Canaan, NH — MAX BMW Events

Not sure what to expect from this track. Anyone been on it?

[sdog30]

Wow, that's a good deal. The track is brand new and as far as I know, only had one event with penguin last fall. Apparently they doubled the size of the track since the fall.

You should pm Eric. Pretty sure he's ridden the new configuration. For $150 bucks, I'd go if I had a beemer.

Hey hey, I'll be there as well and as you have no idea what to expect. Look for a white S1000RR and someone who appears to have no f8%^ing idea what he's doing, that'll be me!

Can you be more specific? That could be several people. I'm looking forward to trying this track, but it will not be on a BMW that weekend.

Looks like fun and awesome of MAX for setting it up BUT the weather looks freezing.

Nice! It says it opens up at 7am but don't see any other details. When are you planning on arriving?

[PainfullySlow]

REALLY looking forward to riding this track but I will have to wait for Penguin to get up there...

[TB151]

Phew! Wild day, short and technical but fun track. We rode both directions, each having it's own challenges. I'm SPENT

are you the one who had issues with his bike after certain RPMs?

Nope not me. And thankfully not the owner of the S1000RR that was totaled.

Edit: Although I'm guilty of terrible riding form which was well represented repeatedly in the track photographers pictures. Oh man, it's just hard to look at them. Pictures certainly cut through the $hit and bear the unforgiving truth huh?

Poor kid. Such a low speed crash but things happened just right to blow a whole on the frame. He was doing 30-40mph when he lost it

He shouldn't have tried to keep up with you. And I'm the slow guy on the White S1000RR. Awesome meeting and riding with you, was a hell of alot of fun.

Sav got a BMW now?

Lol I was behind him when he went down.
Thank you for the kind words. It was a lot of fun for me too. BMW peeps are cool

No lol borrowed one for the day

[frenchwv]

Yeah, was overall a good day minus the super slow side at turn 3 during the lunch session. Dumb. Anyway, where are these pictures you're talking about??

[tsorfas]

I don't have the link available now. Find me on Facebook Savas Kosmidis. They are posted on my profile.

Wow. Multiple HP2 Enduros...

[Kurlon]

Wow. Multiple HP2 Enduros...

And a TT-R 125 sporting clubmans?! Former or pending USCRA Formula Flyweight entry? The old Suzuki RM250 looks vaguely flattracker-ish...

[tsorfas]

All correct Josh

[TB151]

The guy on the RM250 (if you're talking about the yellow one) was hauling balls. That and the HP2's are perfect for that track.

dude has been doing flat track and hillclimbs forever. Has done Pikes Peak 20 times...

[nhbubba]

I didn't scroll far enough to see the RM. Fookin' cooool.
Is that cat from VT? I think I met him.

Yep, that dude. Told me he drove electric bikes for an MIT team? You meet the raddest people mixing 2-stroke fuel next to frozen ponds.
