If you look real close, you can make out a nest of killer ants just underneath the flipping GSXR, so I know it's in Cali http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/banana.gif

Is that the turn right before you come into the 'snakey' area?

I'm not looking for hints! I don't know the #s man - only been there once!

I'm right, aren't I? http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

And what's the prize, anyway?


EDIT:

Alright punk... made me do the research... is it turn 3 at ButtonWillow (which I wouldn't have known if it wasn't for shedevil)???????

What do I get if I'm right? A nasty cigar and a shot of day-old scotch? http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/banana.gif

I was thinking maybe turn 6 before the jump, but that's only a slight bend. My first guess was turn three, but it's hard to see if that's a grade forming on the left of the pic or not.

scenery does look like BW.. possibly turn 3.. but then again, doesn't BW have red/white curbing on the inside... The last time I was there, the pavement didn't look that dark and had like rumble strips going into it. weird.

Def BW folks... i think it's T3. You can see I-5 and the camera vantage seems to be consistent w/the T5 track worker barrier. I'll never forget the time Miagi was outside the barrier taking pix and I stepped the rear out BIG in T4. We both shat ourselves. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

There's definitely r/w rumble in three and four, I distinctly recall dropping puck on both of them in series a few times.

As for the ground color, didn't they just repave past turn two or something. I thought that whole stretch looked pretty fresh and didn't start getting shady again until after turn 5.

Live it or leave it old timer, we're in the here and now and all's looking good on the horizon.

Just keep playing your game and I'll play mine. I can take the stabs in the back, I was raised with a tough skin.
Does it really make a difference how I pay for the shit I have, especially considering I am paying for every bit of it with hard earned money?
Or does it just matter that everyone's happy? Except for the lonely few who can't seem to stop digging at those they envy.

It's ok, you can deny it, we all understand. This is after all a public forum.
Just keep taking your time Mark, I'll send you a post card from track school as soon as I can finance the entry fees.

Oh, and since when is it not ok to set the world on fire?
