the farm private track

[bigjay]

just booked a track day at the farm which as many would know is a private racetrack owned by the ex CEO of coca cola. i just viewed some photos of the track on the RATS website and it looks sweet!!!! Apparently its around 5.5km long with 22 or 23 turns with blind corners, elevation and camber changes that test every part of the bike and rider. Times for the average riders are around the 3 minute plus mark with the likes of james spence and kevin magee pulling 2.40's!!!!! considering eastern creek is around 1.35's for racers and 2.00 for the average rider, it must be one hell of a lap. now i just have to find the damn place.........

You sly dog getting in some practice for the 15th hey
dont worry i'm might be crabbing going around the track but the busa will still kick the zx-6's

enjoy the day

Good on ya BJ! I envy you!

Don't underestimate the ZX6 Nige! I came across one today in the National Park. I kept trying to catch him, but he kept pulling away up the hills and around the corners. I seemed to catch him down the hills, but that thing had grunt.

I went wde-open throttle and finally passed him just toward the end of the Natio around a long sweeper...

Ah laugh it up boys.......... Bring all the busas to the farm and back it up. Talk is cheap......... Remember the farm has corners and is not a 1/4 mile!!!!!!

If you gt a chance, tell us more aboutteh track and how the 600 felt on a track like that...


Were they 20 minute sessions? Did you need a physio afterwards? Do you have favourie corner/combination?

Hope to get there one day...

[bigjay]

Just a great experience and if i never set foot on a track again, then thats fine with me. Words don't do it justice..........

Every person who has ridden it seems to say the same thing, it sounds magic.

Damn! I've never heard of it. Where is this mystical track, and how does one contact the owner to organize hiring it?

cant hire it dude. its by invite only according to the owner. but if you look on this forum you will find a website and contact numbers. i was told by the owner to keep it on the down low..........
