Charles is the man, no doubt! Smooooth, fast, and provides an awesome learning environment between sessions.Gotta admit Charles...from the pics it appears you are quite nasty with it....
This looks like sooo much fun! My bud and I are talking about going somewhere but don't know where or when yet. We'll have to do our homework and figure out the details. If anyone has a sugestion on tracks in the Ct or N East area I Would welcome your 2 cents worth.

The New Hampshire and Mission Raceways are both small... Just over 1 mile long, that's short.
Pocono's raceway has 3 small configs just over 1 mile, too small... The config pictured above is over 2 miles long but the layout sucks(I think).
The New Jersey Raceway is still on the small side, but its defintitely big enough to have some fun on, just over 2 miles long.
Watkins Glen looks great. Just about 3 miles long and a good layout.
If it were me, I'd look at riding Watkins Glen or New Jersey Raceway just from looking at the track maps and lengths.

I have an old one(about 1 1/2 years ago), I think it was my 3rd trackday ever. I only look fast because I was in C group(slow group)

A newer one from last summer. I'm actually a lot faster in this one, but because I'm riding with faster guys it doesn't look it

That was a great video. A first for me. I really enjoyed seeing a busa on the track and I'm sure I'm not the only one!
Do you communicate with the camera bike? Does he video you so you can watch and and learn what you do right and where you can improve?
Thanks again,that was great!
Shawn
There wasn't any communication with the camera bike in either video. The 1st video was a racer that you pay to video you for a session. The 2nd video was a buddy who had a camcorder mounted on the fuel tank cap.
I definitely use video and photos to see where I can improve on and how I really ride. The camera doesn't lie.
Its also fun to watch them everyone once in a while.
Videos can also help you to memorize which way a track turns before you ever see it in person. I watched a Miller video about 20 times the week before we left for it. And the video really helped me to learn the track faster.
I think this is your best shot Ryan, great shot of a lot of lean!!
And here's what I think is Lamb's best shot. Great body position and you can't go wrong when you have the number 1 plate
Thanx bro!
I personally like the ones that are on the straights with no lean and look absolutely boring
But seriously...Lamb just signed up for Big Willow June 30. I'll be getting in there pretty soon. Hopefully B group doesn't fill up too fast or I'll have to ride with some WSMC A group riders. Scary. But I look forward to riding with my fave Trackday bros-Charles and Lamb!
Charles and Lamb make it look easy. I was struggling all weekend. Rusty from not riding 4 1/2 months, race tire takeoffs that didn't agree too well with my bike's geometry (but had awesome grip on the left side, the right was going out), and Spring Mountain is a tricky track in terms of suspension setup. To this day, I could never get it dialed in to my liking. But no excuses...I'm just slow.great pics...you guys make it look deceptively easy
