first off.....fuck 2020. what a bitch of a year.
now for '21...
Carters came out with their track day schedule, Carters@theTrack
this is assuming California will be open
I'm probably going to do the East track March 13&14 and the West track April 3rd and 4th. More to follow.
Its a little more fun (easier?) for me on the West side as the shop is right there which makes for a better spot to ride from plus its easy to pull the grill's out and have a big barbecue. This year I want to see about getting another full size refrigerator in the shop and maybe another couch as casting productions have seemingly expanded.
The east track is a 5 minute drive/ride from the shop..(?) It also rides a lot different, it's bigger, faster turns, seems like more room at any given time. Its a great track.
just throwing it out there.
Carters:
Febuary 15th Laguna Seca Raceway (Presidents Day)
March 13th-15th Thunderhill East (NRS on the 14th)
March 22nd. Sonoma Raceway
April 3rd-4th Thunderhill West
April 12th Sonoma Raceway
May 3rd-4th. Thunderhill East (Ken Hill Advanced Schoool)
May 8th-9th. Thunderhill West (Shemoto's Ladies Weekend)
May 24th-25th Thunderhill East (Ken Hill Novice/Intermediate School)
June 5th-6th Buttonwillow (Original track, AFM Race configuration)
June 25th Thunderhill East (AFM Friday)
July 24th-25th. Thunderhill East
August 9th Sonoma Raceway
August 14th-15th Thunderhill East
Sept 5th-6th Thunderhill East
Sept 10th Thunderhill East (AFM Friday)
October 11th Sonoma Raceway
October 23rd-24th Thunderhill West
November 1st-2nd. Thunderhill East (Ken Hill Advanced School)
As more dates get posted I'll try to keep up. If you're interested in doing one of these track days speak up. The last one we had a good turn out with several bikes running in multiple groups. I think we have 7 bikes there now, more maybe (definitely) on the way.
Even if you're not going to ride we can alway use help with general mayhem and such. It's easy to stay entertained and there's plenty of opportunity.
Hotels in Willows are close, or you can camp at the track, probably in the shop if you like which means you also have power. I generally try to stay at the Holiday inn express in Willows
Standard track day rules apply (maui version)
Also I'm going to try and head to Chuckwalla late January or early February, don't have any dates set up yet but I will be most likely checking with the local riff raft in Southern California soon. I'd like to do a couple racer schools and track days. Kinda need to get organized on that. I have some new ventures I"m looking at for '21 which should put me more in the vicinity for track days...I hope.
