We had a great time at Pahrump, its my 2nd favorite track that I've riden on. Turn 1 and 2 are just awesome, both over 180 degrees :olscool:

The mornings were a little chilly, but it warmed up just fine after 10am. Rain was a possiblity on Sunday, but we did the rain dance and the gods heard our chants

The only drama we had was a freak wind that destroyed all 3 of our Easy-ups

It also hurt my shoulder as I was lifted off the ground trying to hold an easy-up down, but I'm 100% again.

Lambo is fast dude now and only like 5 trackdays under his belt

Kinda is a waste for photographers to take shots in the 1st 2 or 3 sessions. Everyone is still learning the track and getting up to speed. But they like to be done by 2pm so they can sell CDs to people before they leave. After 2pm is when I really get up to speed

well lets say ..you got real close to it.. ( the asphalt ) a few times ... and I do love the gearing..you have.

I like reviewing the photos afterward to correct anything I see that I'm doing wrong.  And to keep an eye out for the Busa's limit on ground clearance.

My Busa already has its suspension set-up for a fast pace at the track and raised up to improve ground clearance, but I don't lean as far on it as my 750.  And this shot shows me that is a smart choice, not much further and I'd be on the fairing over the clutch cover.  I could go a little more, but not much.

But not as crazy as I thought it might be. Horrid gas mileage, but I'm not what you call a "green" guy. I burn lots of gas and go through lots of rubber! Al Gore must love me...

... WHom is taking these " photo's "...?   you have long arms ..but there not that  long..
There is almost always a "professional" photographer at trackdays selling photos.

He sets up in 2 or 3 locations each day and snaps pics of everyone going by. These shots have been shrunk down in file size, but if you click the pic and then click on it again in the next window. You can see they're quite big with excellent resolution. Not every shot is in focus, these were the best 5 of me
