Is anyone going to this? It's 125 for the day and I think they provide lunch and garage space. They will be running on the Infeild course and not the AMA course this time but it's closer to me than most other places so I'm thinking about going. I would love to get back to Buttonwillow but the extra distance is kind of a problem.

I was lookin into Laguna also but that drive would kill me. Plus I would rather be riding than watching. I think someone has a track day at Laguna early December taht I may go to though.

Isn't there another one sometime in August on the AMA course? I am planning to attend that one as well so I can compare my times to Nicky. images/icons/grin.gif

Correction: I just checked and it's August 2nd-4th.

Do they allow bike mounted video cameras? I happen to have one in the race bodywork on my ZX6-r (only a little more to get the camera securely fastened) and would love to get video of everyone passing me images/icons/smile.gif .

3 days left images/icons/smile.gif . I have both bikes ready and my brother has his bike ready. We will probably be heading out sometime around 3pm on Friday and get to the Fontana area somewhere around 10. I am going to try to get him a little more motivated so we can leave around noon. I plan to show up at the track around 6 am sat and be there all day. If anyone would like to stop by, look for the '01 GSXR600 painted to resemble Doohan's helmet, the bike is #54. Also there will be an RC51 with factory looking sharkskinz and a Blue and Yellow Kwaki ZX-6r, both of these are #67. See some of you there. I am also planning to be back on August 3rd and 4th and will be in the area the following week (work is insisting on it images/icons/smile.gif ).
