First off, it was one hell of a fun day at Pacific Raceways with 2Fast Trackdays! I have never been to this track before, but I will be going back for sure. It is a much faster track then I have ever been to before and flows very nicely. Oh and it was cool to see people from the WMRC down there (Rusty, Kenny and Spero) The night before I could not sleep at all and had to wake up at 3am to get from Vancouver, BC to Kent, WA on time for the tech and rider's meeting. So I was pretty tired to begin the day. Good thing I was a little early as my new Sharkskinz helped me to fail tech as my brake and clutch levers banged into the bodywork at full lock. After some very quick and ugly dremel work I was ready to go. Let me put it this way, my first session on the track I felt like retard chasing around a red ballon! Rusty, AHEM, was supposed to be going SLOW to show me around the track...I don't think he understood and took off on me The first few laps I had no idea which way the next corner would be going or how fast I should be going through it. The hardest part of the track for me to learn was Turn 1. Keep it pinned at something like 160-170 mph and just tip it in? OK haha. But before lunch I had the track down and was ready to get alot faster. I was in the 200 level group (Intermediate) and by the end of the day I was passing people left and right which made me happy. In the last session Rusty and I were passing eachother every lap which was lots of fun If I get pics I will make sure to post em up!
I can't wait to try out Pacific, I have 6 track days there with 2Fast this year. How long did it take you to get down there?
