  Honda-Tech West Track Day Part III« » Reply  Edit


So this past Sunday was a blast in that Buttonwillow was a good season opener and at least one HTer made it to the event. I'd like to see some more HT people out for a track day sometime in April or May at a track out West (Buttonwillow, Willow Srings, Pahrump, etc). I was lucky to have a good group of people help me out with my first track day, so those of you that have been on the fence for a while should try to make it out. There are always helpful guys at the track that will make your experience that much better.

The weather is clearing up and becoming more predictable, which will make for some awesome track days. Let's all take a look and see what's coming up with orgs like TrackDaz, Ti2TT, and some others.

http://www.trackdaz.com . $150 and they're a pretty good org to ride with. PM me if you sign up so we can get an HT area set up.

Current Roster:
Saturday May 3rd
-Life Sux Die
-BadMonkey
-EkSite

Sunday May 4th:
-Quiks66 (plus 3 friends)
-JasperDB1
-Life Sux Die (maybe)

PM me if you're coming but just haven't said so in a post

That's what I've heard about T'hill. I'll leave that open as a possibility but most SoCal ppl would have an even harder time making it up there than BW.

My friends and I have been looking at Pahrump for quite a while now. 35 riders on the track the whole day and no sessions

That's good and bad. As long as you police yourself and make sure you drink plenty of fluids and stop for enough rest, you should be ok. Just gotta keep a steady line so Ricky Racer doesn't knock into you.

Another problem with Pahrump is that there are also some REALLY fast guys out there. And they can act like A-holes when they pass you.

Yep, I've experienced this before, but thanks for the heads up.

We're still trying to secure a date in April at BW or WS and I'll keep this post updated

How about California Speedway with Fastrack?

I'm already signed up for SOW 4/4 Group B, therefore that gets my vote.

I'm too old to sleep in my car, and married so can't share a room with some hot chick.
