Default Track pics from 5/17 are in!

I had to buy 'em because I don't have any pics in action yet plus I managed to shave another 2.4 seconds off my personal best. Pretty proud of it.

Here's the entrance to turn 6. I'm almost at max lean.



Decreasing radius turn 8.


Very fast turn 5 kink right after the back straight. I'm going around 105mph.


And turn 1 right after the 3rd gear front straight.

The dude took 132 pics of me, there's some other good ones, but I just didn't feel like searching through all of 'em. I dig the first one the most. Lean angle looks sick.

Thanks for the compliments, guys.

the 3rd and 2nd would be better if you had a clear visor and could see your eyes...

anyways... you were saying in another thread your body position wasn't what you wanted... but it looks good to me... what SHOULD it look like? what are you doing wrong?

Common problem everyone has, head is too high and a little centered. Getting your upper body right is hard.

It doesnt take that long once you start riding somewhere it's easily possible and you get your body positon correct. We got OSP really close at the gap this past weekend. One more trip across without his massive luggage and I think he would of gotten it down. You should be able to do it in Colorado.
