Where is this place?
What is involved working corners? - Standing around out on the racetrack for 8 hours at a time?
Sitting on the couch, watching TV, isn't living.

It's up near Decator, off of 51.

yeah, working corners is basically standing around and watching the guys on the track.

if you're corner workin, take a radio. It gets pretty boring out there on track days.

Hey check out this lap video that Ridesmart put together, perspective from Ty Howard's bike, good for those of you that are heading out there. This looks like this video was made before the track was reworked, but the race line should be pretty much the same.

When we got back from EC today, I called Dave Wonders to check on tomorrow.

Tomorrow's track day at Eagle's Canyon is OFF. It's been cancelled due to the forecast.



I'm sure Dave will honor any prepaid track time ... just get in touch with him and I'm sure you're covered.
