the loaners are available... SV-650s and GSX-R 600. They are running on Pilot Sports and some have upgrades (i.e. Yoshi full, Ohlin rear, wavey brakes, etc.)

You need to come out... It ain't right bro!

I forgot to mention...

Kevin Schwantz has a busa... Along with an RS-6, and a Bugatti!

And, he and Jamie James once spent two days racing a busa around Road Atlanta... To sum it up, Jamie explained how sick it was by saying that he left a SEVERAL hundred yard blackie on the back STRAIGHT!!! The back straight is 8 tenths of a mile long and has a SLIGHT curve (turn 9). Normally, you just go wide-fuggin' open on turn 9. Jamie said he tried, but couldn't manage to keep the bus open because it was slipping around at 170MPH!!!

SICK!

So, next time, Ben and I are bringing ours down for sure! Oh, it's on!

The only thing I hurt was my feelings/pride.The Joe Rocket speedmaster held up like a charm and so did my SIDI's.Crashing on turn 11 at I guess between 60 and 80 mph w/o a scratch I can count my blessings.I will go back there and tame the dragon.
Here is the dragon.

Whats the cost?  Do you get your race liscense?
http://www.schwantzschool.com/

it is $1100 plus $400 for bike rental (if needed) for the two day class.

I got (and will get) 10% off the class for being a repeat student.

After you finish the class, you get a certificate that qualifies you for your CCS or WERA license.  You still need to pay either of them and join to become a racer.  But, you are "qualified" when the class is complete.

Next year I might take the 3 day "World Champion's Class."
