I was talking to him last time I was @ Fontana. Wasn't it like $100 or a session or something like that?

Oh yeah, 70 degrees in Feb! For those freezing their butt off :fire :haha

KaToom....what kinda lap time are you running on the AMA layout? Looks like you were bustin! Yeah, bad timing for leaving the cameraman :)



Did Fastrack purposely "straighten out" the Turn 11-12 kink....or were you guys just cutting the 2nd curb? :confused

Yup, they gave up on cones there...notice the wall on the left.

Fast Tracks been running straight through the T11 kink for a while now. I happen to like it better w/out the chicane.

:1. I don't like the chicane part either. Nice lap time and video too Katoom...I couldn't see you for the first few laps :D, I remember you posting it on the ZX-10R.net forum, although I must say I haven't been on that site for a while...I only need to post a few more times to reach 1,000 posts :slam

Here's the video guy's website http://www.jtmsr.com/index_aboutme.html. I think he charges like $80 for a video session. He's got some good best lap times posted too, and I'm sure they've improved slightly since he hasn't updated his site in a year I believe.

Yeah, I sat out the '06 season for whatever reasons...getting itchy to start up again :ninja



I thought it was more fun to be a little technical through the chicane....guess you guys like pinning it :laugh

The first I went to Fontana they I went through the chicane and saw like 3 people blast through it and then I was like, "screw that, I'm going straight next time". We should all plan another Fontana track day!
