HEY everyone, If you are interested, there is going to be a sponsored track day on AUG 9. It is the CCS “Privateer” Sport Rider Days. It sounds really great and is only $125 for the whole day. This includes instruction and actual track time. I have posted the website link here so you can have the most accurate info.

also oct. 4th. anyone going to this? i might go if other BARFers are up for it. looks like a novice day taught by CCS racers. it does sound like if you do this novice day you can be a CCS certified competitor in their races.

any insight on this? IIRC, mr. crash is a CCS member.
 
Hey Calvin, I am all over this, plus, I have an Xterra with a trailer hitch. All we would have to do is rent a trailer and I could carry up to 3 or 4 bikes.
The price is too good to pass up, but I would get registered early.
 
would be sick to do some cheap trackdays. hehe, ya get aries to come along too. there's ride instruction so should be almost as good as an actual class.
 
Oct. 4 sounds good.

"no streamlining may be attached to the rider" - does that include speedhumps on leathers?

at least there won't be any of those strange helmet fins with flashing lights or triple horned lids etc.

the materials also state everyone goes through class instruction first before allowed on track. K-E-W-L they run a tight ship!
 
i'm down for novice days siince i'm just a greenhorn anyway :rolleyes

who's going to which day? aug 9th? oct 4th? both?
 
SO VERY INTERESTED. I got to check my school schedule and see if i have the time. My only major concern is getting the bike to the track. Other then that, im all game.
 
I have to research how big a trailer I can haul. I have to call around and check. I am just taking a guess right now but I would say that I can take up to 4 bikes including mine. Like I said, I might be able to take more......Any one know of a place to rent trailers besides U-HAUL?
 
i am in for oct 4th for sure. just need to get boots and pants by then. woo hoo :nerd

United Rentals is one place. I rented a 5x8 from them and hauled 2 bikes and all our gear.

There are other places but I didn't really price them since United Rentals was just down the street from me.

Look in the Yellow Pages under trailers. Call around and ask for a Utility trailer. Make sure it has big wheels. The trailers that have the small 8" - 12" tires don't do to well at prolonged freeway speeds.

Good luck and I hope to see you there!


What is your tow vehicle?
 
Anybody else gonna be doing both days? Sounds like the best deal, and has anyone checked availability?
 
excellent, I will be going to both :D can't beat $225 for two track days
