I wonder how many of his touring buddies he can talk in to doing a track day.

Congrats on the promotion! That didn't take long. Now we just have to get a couple more folks up to speed, hit Striple and 2Track with tranquilizer darts and steal Miles' back protector and we will all be in L2.

In other good news, I finally legitimately got a knee down multiple times in Ricochet.

I don't believe they photograph that corner, how convenient!

Did anyone see Rhino sneaking in sand paper?

It's funny you mention that....just the day before he stopped by my place to get a sheet of sandpaper for some "wood work"

Lol congrats man!

What sucked after the first touch-down was that it's on my left puck, which is scratched all to hell from when I crashed at ECR. I didn't get to admire my no-longer-pristine knee puck in the paddock. So the evidence isn't as compelling as it could have been, but I don't care. You can all suck it.

I had a great time on the 3.1.... I honestly like it more than the 1.7. Not that I don't like the 1.7 but the 3.1 is freaking great. I got my right knee down finally and realized that I have much farther to go before pushing the bikes limits. The Q3's where freaking great and I will do a review soon. If you have Q2s now then get the Q3 you will be happy. I should be able to post some Video of when an instructor was chasing me... and he is supposed to give me video from his bike. It was a freaking blast.

If you've got the balls, you can carry a lot of speed into and through Ricochet on the 3.1 config.

Yea I didn't go near as fast as I could have yet I went way faster than on the 1.7

Nice. It wasn't Blair there this time it was his assistant or whatever. He took some good pics but Blair moves around more I think.

I like hauling ass in big bend and also wagon wheel then taking the speed from wagon wheel into ricochet. I think wagon wheel is actually one of my favorite turns of that track.

I was actually surprised how much speed I was carrying through big bend on Sunday. I ended up dragging my knee through that corner a couple times, unexpectedly.

I like wagon wheel as well but I like the 1.3 portion that cuts out wagon wheel better. Plus you have a LOT more speed coming into ricochet. I found myself dragging knee in ricochet every time and still feeling I needed to pick up the pace. I guess I usually drag knee in ricochet on the 1.7 as well but im not going as fast for sure.
