I've been wanted to do a MMP weekend trackday for the last 3 years and some excuse always f***s it up.

This is the year of MMP!

Keigwins @ the Track is there 6/11-12 running the full 4.5 mile track in a 2 x 30 minute group format.

You're 2000 miles away, I'm still 1000. I'll still have to fly either to LA or SLC. Just saying, it's not impossible for you...

Indeed, money wise its an issue this season.. I am running on fumes. But yes, you have a point, definitely not impossible.

I'll look into it.. (hopefully the gf never sees this thread...:rofl

It's with Keigwins...

Remember Paul..this was the trackday where they made you stop on the track for the red flag and you almost got ass-packed.

AFAIK they changed their policy, red flags at Infineon meant the usual pit-out.

And for the record, it was ME who almost did the ass-packing!

Really?!? Hmm...maybe I should consider it now...

As for you almost doing the ass-packing...

Are you serious? I have never been to a track where a red flag (or any flag for that matter) was "stop on track" That's just a accident waiting to happen. out:

LOL! There policy is pretty similar to many providers, depends on the track. Your not suppose to slam on the brakes! :thumbup:

Signal with your arm up and slow to a stop in a safe part of the track . . . that way the ambulance can come to your aid ASAFP!

They do it all the time at the AFM races if the ambulance has to roll.

I don't know about you, but on the full 4.5 mile course at MMP, I would not want to be the potential ride seriously injury with a collapsed lung gasping for air while they wait for the last bike to clear a 4.5 mile course

[MGFChapin]

Hi Paul,
Yes we do. It is a west coast procedure, including the way racing organizations out here do it. In almost 15 years we've never had an incident because of it. (Frankly, I'm always surprised when I hear another company manages it differently. Why?)

Anyway, I'll explain this, and a lot more, during the morning riders meeting.

Cheers,
Lance.

so, keigwins red flag procedure is stop on track? both local organizations in apex and miller open days are hand up, slow down, exit track.

 

[ofcounsel]

I would love to, but with all the racing I'm doing this year (WSMC and CVMA), I can't spare the funds for this track day :tears:
