**FROSTY:Me** · 21st March 2005, 22:14

Just to let those coming to the track day know what timetable we are working to. Im trying to get us maximum track time.
7.30am --gates open /pits open.
8.00am sighn is starts -pay ya money and sighn the indemnity form.

8.05 -Scrutineering starts-bring ya bike and be wearing all ya gear.
It wont be a tough check over just a quick look to make sure lids are ok and nothings falling off the bike mirrors ar removed or taped over etc.
Ill be sorting the groups as we do the scrutineering.
9.00am marshalls brief--a quick run through on what theyll be doing.
9.15 -riders brief --a runthrough of what we'll be doing during the day and the track rules.
9.30 --Ambulance arrives
9.35 -all first timers taken on a SLOW -read VERY SLOW 4 lap sessiion on the track.
9.45 -First group out on the track.
9.45-12.30 --4 track sessions per group.
12.30-1.15 lunch break --also marshalls track session.
1.15 -4.30 -more riding.
4.30 --4.45 --second marshalls session.
5.00--barby and beer time
GREAT NEWS --I've got us use of the club garage which gets us running water power and a place to sort out the food n stuff.

Track Rules for the day.
1 Show concideration for everybody else out there
2 Stick to your line
Very important -dont try to "get out of the way"-dont worry about the guy behind you--it aint a race
3 when overtaking make sure you can do so safely.If in doubt -DON'T
4 should the front or back wheel come off the ground by "accident" make sure noones around you when you're doing it.
5 slow group riders are only to pass on the back straight before the braking cones
6 Touring group riders -no passing between hairpin and the right hander.-cones will be out to mark these points.
7 Fast group ref rule 3 also first session overtaking on the outside except on the straight.
8 if you see a flag waving anywhere on the track pull into the pits straight away -the clock will be stopped on your session so ya aint gonna miss out on laps. ANYONE trying to sneak an extra lap will miss out on the rest of that session.
9 If a slower rider is holding you up either rule 3 or pull into the pits and let em get ahead. -again--it aint a race.
10 when leaving the track hold your left hand up to let other riders know.
11 if you are unlucky enough to run off the track raise your hand in the air to let us know you're ok.
12)dont look back
14--HAVE FUN-- LOTS N LOTS OF FUN

Can that first slow session be tyre scrubbing??? Or does that wait till the first proper session...???

**FROSTY:Me** · 21st March 2005, 22:51

ya wont be going fast enough to scrub tyres. Its a VERY slow ride. its to look at the track and just see where the braking markers etc.

**StoneChucker** · 21st March 2005, 22:52

I think the first track session, for the new riders, is meant to be a NON-intimidating introduction to the track. I will be using that time to learn the course myself, since I've never been on a track before.

Just a forwarning... CENSORED

Hmmm--mental picture of SC beating the shite outa SC-jim carry style-

Anyhoo-people don't read --the 4 laps will be faster than a run but not much -more commuter type speeds.Slow enough to look at the track propperly
