PI track day...
#9
Yep...it was a seriously awesome day!!!
Still buzzing about it now......
Wore through a set of knee sliders which suprise (and pleased) me no end....
As for my times, I have very little idea but suffice to say the 2 minute barrier was well and truly smashed
Turn 2, siberia, lukey heights, turn 11 (my nemisis) and inconsistently on turn 12 and the kink before honda were knee sliding nirvana. I will never forget that sound "sssccccrrraapppeeee" as you're cranked through a corner.
I am so stunned that one is capable of riding so goddamn fast. I could never, ever do this stuff on a public road.
At the first session, my impressions were how wide the track was. After getting in the groove (and getting much faster) it was breathtaking how narrow the track is. It was worth every single penny spent. And I cannot wait to do it again!!!!
As for bigshow I was attempting to line him up (attempting being the operative word) at the end of Gardner and sneak under brakes into turn 1. Then he did that lock up. I still don't know if he deliberately did it to spook me or just had brain fade. Either way, I won't be trying to take him under brakes any time soon
Mind you I think I scared the beejezus out of him when I highsided at 160+ exiting turn 11
I really wish I knew what my times were for that last session...Oh well next time. You guys really have to try this stuff at least once.
I now understand why a lot of the gixxer boys will only ride on the track and pass on the hard charging road rides.....
Oh yeah...huge raps on the 208GP and 207RR dunlops.
