2013 Track Season - Sportbike Addicts

**ronaldo9** · 01-14-2013, 10:56 PM

For those that still have track bikes who are you riding with this year. I'm seriously considering joining Absolute! The price is very attractive, even NESBA's rates are worth looking into. I've always rode with TPM but I may defect this year we shall see.

I was looking as well. I've always rode with TPM and might defect as well. Prices aren't bad with NESBA. I've ridden with Absolute and Nesba, both weren't bad at all.

The only reason at this point that I think I stuck with TPM is their GP Moto series so I re-upped for this year. Although I still have the CCS paperwork sitting here on my desk waiting to mail out. I really wish those idiots would pull their heads out of their butts and get an online registration site like normal people do it in 2013.

im racing a full ccs mid atlantic series (minus CMP, because that shit is not Mid Atlantic)

LaFemmes · 01-16-2013, 07:59 AM

What are the prices for both?

TPM full throttle is $299 Absolulte Platinum membership is $250 and I'll check on Nesba rates.

ImmaSquashYou · 01-18-2013, 08:30 PM

The full throttle this year doesn't have the $75 tues and thurs, or the $125 mondays/fridays. The difference is $265. Summit w/ weekends you save $25 with full throttle, and $25 mon-thurs and $40 fri-sun on tbolt. Perhaps it's worth it to some, but i usually do about 4-6 track days a year (never done two days in a row) and to me it doesn't justify it. nesba's advance class is probably the hardest to get bumped to i believe. There are a few $100 mondays with nesba which looks more enticing to me.

I have been with TPM for 15 years and defected to absolute

The reason CCS does not register online or fax is for the simple reason that they want your original signature not a fax or online copy of it.
I will also be doing the whole Atlantic series minus Louden.

TPM..?

They get your signature when you get your registration paperwork before going through tech anyway?

DeFran · 01-22-2013, 08:30 PM

I'm sorry I was thinking about applying or renewing your license.

To apply or renew your CCS license they want an original signature.

SPL170db · 01-22-2013, 08:48 PM

Yeah, I might have been a little cryptic with that. It's not so much the license renewal but the actual event registration that annoys me. License renewal I snail mail in.

Use a fax machine

**ronaldo9** · 01-23-2013, 12:03 PM

Welp...I will miss Ray's and Sarah's photos as well as my TPM buddies like Kaz and Bob. Unfortunately or fortunately I joined Absolute lol. I may still ride with TPM during the season. Sometimes they have really cheap days for non-members when they can't sell a day. Safe riding in 2013. Now to bring bodywork for Bart and Ray to paint.

See you at Absloute!
You will see a lot of the same people at the Absolute days.
Plus myself and a small handful of TPM coaches are now there.

BTW my new email address is dcpaintworx@gmail.com
