Post by DarcShadow » Sun Mar 23, 2008 4:37 pm

This will be our first non local track day drawing.

This is non transfereable so if you win and find out you can't make it let us know asap so that a second winner can be drawn. Drawing will be held 8:00 Monday, March 31st.

For your chance to win a free track day at MSR Houston, April 7th, answer these questions three...

1, Whats the most embarrising thing you have done while riding?

2, What is more dangerous to ride, the city streets or the Freeway and why? Give an example from past experence.

3, Whats the difference between increasing, decreasing and constant radius turns? What differences are there between the way you enter and ride each corner?

Show my butt crack.

2, What is more dangerous to ride, the city streets or the Freeway and why? Give an example from past experience.
City streets for me. I had cars pull out right in front of me and if I was not paying attention I would off became part of their paint job.

3, Whats the difference between increasing, decreasing and constant radius turns? What differences are there between the way you enter and ride each corner?
In a decreasing radius turn the turn gets tighter half way vs. the increasing radius turn that opens up. Constant radius it is exactly that. The turn radius remain the same through out the turn. If you enter a decreasing radius turn to hot and you don't use trail braking you will found out very soon that you are in hell. In a increasing radius turn you will have to decrease speed in the entrance but roll on the throttle to exit on the right spot. A constant radius turn needs to be taken carefully and keeping the right speed through out the turn.

Can you double check the date. I've looked at the MSR Houston web site and they have nothing on the calendar for the 7th.

Ride Smart has it listed on their calendar, but MSR Houston does not.
