It's time to get "back on track", so I'll be there for my first track days in 15+ years. I hope to get 4 to 6 track days in this year.

If you sign up now, the prices are (slightly) discounted.

LMK if you'll be there.
 
I will be there! It will be so cool for you to be back after a 15 year hiatus.
 
Getting closer. Anyone want to help a brother out with transportation? :teeth
 
Two days at T-Hill West? Really? That sounds awesome! Maybe not as awesome as two days on the 5-mile, but you take what you can get.
 
Very cool, i can only imagine your anticipation and possible anxiety :cool:

I won't be there, but wishing you to have a nice one, make smart decisions and enjoy the day. I started to like west part after numerous TDs.. it kind grew on me, East is the favorite of course though :)

Cool. C group for me, too, as this is my re-entry weekend. You got a number on that thing?

If you want to say "hi", look for a Gen 2 Tuono (red) streetbike. I'll be the skinny old white guy in TaiChi leathers. :teeth

Same goes for you. :cool:

If you want to pit near each other, look for a silver Mazda CX-5 with a U-haul trailer. Also, if you want to keep a wide berth, look for the same. :wave

Sounds good! If I can find you, I'll do my best to stop by and say hello :)

All the things: excited, nervous, apprehensive. I'm a lot older than when I last did this, and I'm hauling a trailer rather than driving a truck, and I don't know anybody who's going to be there. Well, except for Max of Oxymoron Photography, who will be shooting - we worked together at Cycle Gear. :)

OTOH, I'm a better rider now and I have my bike in excellent shape. I'm just going to focus on the fun!

Sorry, I was so focused on the riding that I didn’t think to check BARF. Party foul, I know.

I was at the corner as you enter the pits, next to Max/OxyMoron’s white van. Big pig of a Tuono.

I had two spectacular days. Day One was super-crowded with about 170 riders!! I started in novice because I was returning, but it was a bit of a combination conga line and clown show. I asked for an evaluation ride before lunch and moved up to intermediate. Riding was much better, with cleaner lines and less swooping, and the pace was much better suited to my riding.

Great fun. Home safe. What more can you ask for?
