    Second KB track day

    Ok people the wheels are rolling -palms being greased -etc etc.
    Heres the deal
    Next track day will be taupo again -Central location etc etc
    No definite date as of yet but first sunday in october is looking possible.
    Format will be the same as the first one except for some fine tuning.
    4 classes -A,B.C. and D grade--Fast, fast touring.Touring and novice.
    15 minute sessions
    Lunch ---either Catered BBQ (yes a vegi option will be available) or subway will be provided.I'll sort that in advance
    Entry fee will include lunch.
    Emergency braking session will be 30 minutes from start of lunch break
    second (short) riders brief after lunch.
    There will be 2 slow speed pillion sessions but pillions will be scrutineered gear wise.--(I bags to do that job for the lady pillions--especially the fit of leathers bit.)
    because there will be 4 classes it will mean 60 entrys but it will still be on a first come first served basis. If ya snooze ya loose.
    Pricing will be stepped. X dollars if ya pay in full up front X dollars plus a bit if ya deppy and pay the balance IF and only if there is room in a group suitable for you EOD will be X x 2 -A huge part of my headaches were caused by how much we could afford to spend -and that was controlled by you lot paying.
    classes will give ya 3/4 hour to socialise.
    Once again the marshals/officials get 2 free track sessions and lunch provided free.
    Kick off will be 8 am again with first track session at 9.30
    Every group will get 7 track sessions -which if ya ask those that went to the laST ONE was a shit load of riding.
    I am negotiating with camellia court to get us a discount on motel rooms
    From the fantastic feedback on improvements there are certain bits of fime tuning I want to take care of Including a map of the track
    A map online showing where the track is
    Better instructions re minor track rule changes.
    latecomers scrutineering and track entry.
    places on the track photographers are not allowed.
    a slightly different araingement for track entry and exit.
    possibly a mechanic on hand
    marshalls will rotate so they get a better view of the track.
    tea and coffee available all day along with bottled water
    more and better available instructors.
    Ohh and guys I seriously thught about reverse circuit but its too darn dangerous Im sorry.
    The sweeper will be twice as fast and exiting directly towards a block wall and the pits exit.
    The only left hander if stuffed up could cause you to end up flying across the track towards other guys on the next section of track
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Great stuff.

    Something to really look forward too.

    Will start accelleration practise etc. These days are so good for improving bike handling skills and I have plenty of room for improvement.

    Hehe shame you said a sunday rather than a friday. Could have been on my B-day. Ohwell, Just one question has anyone ever taken a cruiser to one of these things? Admitedly I wouldn't be able to go in the fast group but maybe the one beneath it. I just want to be able to take it out and ride at higher speed than road limit without worrying some nut cager will cut me off.

    see her, you'll never free her
    you must surrender it all
    And give life to me again
