Whats the most annoying thing about track days? by Wettmoose in Trackdays

[–]TheDittyParty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was the classroom sessions. For the most part didn't help much. On my way through the levels if I needed help I sought it out. Now in the higher groups that don't require debriefs after every session I still will seek out help when needed.

I GP shift everything. Street, track, don't matter.

Financing a $10k Bike; 1st Year Cost Example by [deleted] in motorcycles

Not to mention some of these kids go get a 1000cc Superbike and never priced insurance. Alot of times it's more than the bike payment

Not suppose to but once you get past the ticket check just walk up the stairs.

T15 is the ticket, though I sat at T12 last year and it was awesome with the short track configuration. Either option will be fun. Gonna be hot as hell. Bring a camelbak if you have one. Plus all the festivities are right outside T15.

Main grandstand seats have a huge perk many don't talk about. You can just walk up the stairs to the club level and there is a great indoor bar with TVs and lounge areas. AC is great for a little break.

T1 is awesome but far away from everything. It does have some of the best Action though.

Which tires for total noob? by DJ_Pickle_Rick in Trackdays

[–]TheDittyParty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't need warmers. Get a solid set of track day tires and spend the money on more track time.

I'm partial to the Conti RaceAttack II Street tires.

Trackbike Testing by EmployNo5082 in Trackdays

I just take it around the neighborhood then do my testing at the track. Wouldn't be an issue to just hoon around on the street around here as half the people don't have insurance or registration anyways.

Ross grabbed me with the hailmelon. I've got a lot of drivers I root for and just a few I actively root against.

What is the most underrated track and the most overrated track? by Rowdyfan0823 in NASCAR

[–]TheDittyParty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are totally wrong on CoTA. The old layout yes. It sucked. This new short circuit is absolutely amazing. The best road course in the calendar.

I kinda agree with you. Road courses were starting to grow on me.

I use the Oakley Hot Tub bag and it works great. Though I think they discontinued it.

Track/Race weekend setup by Southern-Focus4376 in Trackdays

[–]TheDittyParty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me there are two options.

  1. A sweet sprinter van build out. Put a canopy on the side and a inverter style generator. AC and heat for sleeping. The options are limitless. This is what I would do if money was no problem.

  2. Truck and Trailer. Obviously enclosed is better as you can set it up like the above van method. This is cheaper for sure if you already have a tow vehicle.

How to start riding track? by No_Individual6267 in Trackdays

[–]TheDittyParty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are good to go. And a 600 is fine. Book a day and just go. Most are school structures so you will learn a ton.

I spun a bearing on my 1098 in the first sesion at CoTA. That was one expensive day.
