MSRC Roll Call - July 28th & 29th

[El Diabro]

I know right? I had to get a rear for the 750 and a new helmet so had funds tied up. Okay, I didn't need a new helmet, but the idea got in my head

Randy has a Lvl 2 spot open, so just waiting on him to send me an invoice, and it's on like Donkey Kong!!!

so you are in lvl 2 on saturday?! Heck yea, although with the one on one instruction i doubt i'll see you much.

Nope, I'll be in Lvl 2 on Sunday

[milesmiles]

Also who will be there first to grab a spot for everyone!?! striple...i'm lookin at you!

[Striple]

Keep looking. I probably won't be there that early.

[milesmiles]

Will do...anyone else going to get there early? If so grab a decent size spot closest to the classroom!!! Please! I will do the same!

[El Diabro]

FYI, I'm registered now for Lvl 2 on Sunday for the 1.7....yes, I'm nervous since it'll be my first time in Lvl 2, but I'm also super excited

No need to be nervous about it! Just imagine level one without the slower 50-66%. Other than that, level two in the morning is similar to level one in the afternoon.

Just get out there and ride your ride, don't even worry about your pace.

[El Diabro]

thanks for the advice homie!!!

[DemonDuck]

Is it Sunday yet?

[milesmiles]

So did anyone ever find the ezup and banners?!

[WillK675]

Grinner & P-Fiddy have the banners. Fiddy should be bringing them tonight.

[Grinner]

The ez's are where they have been...in my garage. Is anyone heading down on friday for drop off or over night? I may be up early enough to run em over tomorrow morn if need be.
PM or hit my celly and let me know.

[DemonDuck]

What time do the gates open Sunday? Also what time do I need to be there Sunday if I have the bike pre taped and such? I can never remember these things.

[El Diabro]

What time is everyone getting there in the morning? Is someone going to have the EZ up set up?

[WillK675]

ez-ups should be setup today. I'll be running stuff down there, and will make sure people leave it up today.

[El Diabro]

That was a blast today! I had fun with everyone for my first time in Lvl 2. Thanks to Pink Fiddy and Grinner for coming over, Demonduck's entire clan was out there and they are a hoot! Got to meet 111, hope you enjoyed it! Rhino, too bad you got stuck doing other stuff, but he, you got a track credit out of it! Will, thanks for letting me follow you around for a few laps...we never saw each other on the track all day long till that last session we did. Striple, thanks for all the encouragement and advice, and for completely blowing past me before Big Bend when you came down to play with us lil people...I have soooo much to learn! Demon, you did awesome and even moved up to Lvl 2 your first day on a new bike! Dude, you were right up there with the fast guys, very impressive! And I have to really take time to thank Darcshadow. Thanks for working me just about the entire damn day! You didn't have to spend that much time with Will and I on your track day, but you sacrificed and I really really really appreciate it! And you did it without gravel roads! And I have to say, DS you are one fast MF!!! We were all loving watching you and Tony (Ridesmart Instructor) go at it back and forth! That was exciting to watch, and after all day of slabbing around with us in Lvl 2 to help us, when it came time to pick up your game, you were on point!!! It was very impressive, you should have heard our 'track day' commentary (remember people, there's no racing at a track day!)

After a discouraging first couple of sessions, I really had a blast today! Thanks to everyone, I couldn't have done it without you!

[Striple]

Good times all around! It was good to see Rhino, El Diabro, and DemonDuck all move up to level deuce! I had a blast mixing it up with 2track and DarcShadow. 2track was looking awesome out there, and DarcShadow was doing some of the best riding that I have thus far seen him do. I never saw much of Miles, but he seemed to be having excellent sessions with Shaun, and it was nice to finally see Will on the track again as well. Thanks for everyone who came out to support us, and glad to see some of the new guys checking out level one.

[Rhino]

Yeah, this weekend was a blast. I had a great time in L2. L1 felt like getting used to riding the track, then trying to get halfway fast. L2 feels a lot more like self-paced learning time. I got a lot out of the class.

I spent Sunday filming the ARC class that Striple was in. I gotta say, when you're quick in L2, take that class. It's some seriously good info. Basically you learn the exact race line for the track you take the class at, and you get video critique which seems insanely useful. It's a good intro to L3, but it's useful for all skill levels. There were three instructors and at least a couple racers taking the class, if that tells you anything.

It was great to see the new guys out there, and great to see the members out there too. I made sure to let Dave know just how big a presence we had at the track both days.

[milesmiles]

I had a great time out there on saturday!!!! I highly recommend shaun as an one on one instructor. I now have a clear understanding of what i need to work on and look forward to applying them. This was exactly what i was looking for and the methods we used can be applied each time i step out on the track. Three thigns i really need to work on, lines, passing and body position on the right side. And overall confidence(as many of you may know)!

[2track]

Had a great time out there Saturday, the 1.3 area is a blast but trashes your legs, but It showed me that I have a weakness that I have to work on . Stripple & matt were monsters out there, it was fun riding with them. Glad to see Dave in lvl 2 it sounded like he had a great time. It was cool seeing Fish out there for his first time. The best part about this weekend is that no one stepped out of there comfort zone & everyone stayed safe. That is what its all about.

[milesmiles]

There are plenty of pics of me dragging knee, but this one tops it all! (see the fellow in the back ground!)

It was a great day. Felt good to get back on the track. I took it easy all day, but everything flowed smoothly including my problem corners on the 1.7. Was a great day for getting re-acclimated to the track. Now I'm ready for Barber.

[DarcShadow]

Miles, I think you made a wrong turn

Looking good here

never a good sight. (Level 2 - set 6, pages 4 and 5)

another good one

Red Racer bettery watch it, crazy eyes is right behind him

[milesmiles]

you picked the worst photos for me!

[2track]

How the hell did you move those photos Matt ?

[DarcShadow]

I'm good like that. I just linked to them, didn't actually move them. Just have to find the image address in the web code.
