It's always great to see you too Doug.

I wasn't tracking it because I've already booked all my days and I'm saving my free track day gift certificate for VIR in November VIR North is one of my most favorite tracks, behind BeaveRun of course

Hey I didn't stuff anyone! :p

Smokin' Joe caught me on an inside pass coming off the chicane heading for the back straight, that was my only screwup of the day in passing or pucker moments. When we talked I immediately admited that was a mistake and he was very calm about it. He said all my passes were clean, just that with new riders being in white and it raining that was a bad place to try for a pass, so I learned my lesson...just wait til another corner instead of trying to fit it in there in that tight section. I had a great time working with Omar, Smokin' Joe, Julie, John S., Martin, and renard...they fielded my many questions and were awesome to work with.

Was great riding/meeting u doug, wish u didn't live so far away from CT. I need help rebuilding bikes too! :p

Red group here I come...time for some more learnin'!

time to learn to Pass and work on that body position.

Funny fact: I thought BJ on his first track day last year. I also, helped him with his first guest coach day. I glad he's making good impressions at TPM.

It was kind of funny. I actually thought he was another coach, and it may have been the only dry session, so I went out pretty fast on purpose. Then when he pulled me aside at the end, I didn't know who it was and though he was gonna yell at me for something...luckily it was quite the opposite.

Bryce: He was coach # 937...other end of the paddock.

Ah, pitting with Smokin' Joe right near the entry to the parking lot?

In any event, Doug u'll be sad to hear that Sunday in the heavy rain a nice silver SV1000s bit it on turn 9...smacked down pretty hard, but eventually got up and walked into the ambulance.

Just as long as the rider was OK..bikes can be repaired or replaced.

Thanks Abi.

I don't think so Bryce. I am one broke mofo. I only signed up for the 10th cause I got a referal credit for a buddy that did art basic, so the day is only costing me the $55. I think this will be my last track day this year. I wanna do more, but also have to make sure I still pay my mortgage. LOL
