oooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhh - that's really tempting. I'm sick as a dog with a nasty cold. If it clears up and they do this I just might drive up.

You gotta love a 65 degree track day in late October! Lots of open track out there today! My best lap of the day was a 1:04.91, which is 0.3 seconds off my best ever. Pretty happy about that! I completely finished off my rear tire. I believe I got 4-5 days out of that tire. My bike felt really planted today. It seemed like the bumps in turn #8 had disappeared. Hmmm, maybe I’ll hang on to the RR for another year. I hope BeaveRun does more of these events in the future!!!!

It was a Michelin Power Race Med-Soft. Let me say I ran it pretty much down to the cords. Maybe I'll post up a pic, it's pretty much a slick on the edges, but it had grip to the end. I was wondering if it would make it though the Mid-O day. It made it, and I was sure I'd have to change it before the BeaveRun day was over, but it went the distance.

Here's some obligatory video. Nothing too crazy, just lots of wide open track. The first lap of the video was my fastest of the day - 1:04.91... http://vimeo.com/16203457

Nice, that and the price might just push me to throw on a set.
