Got my first track day with no limits at mallory on Friday. Do I need both parts of my driving licence or just the card part? Thanks Carl

This is only the case for Mallory though, other tracks (especially MSV) you will need both parts.

I'm there tomorrow as well, keep an eye out for a white zx6 #101 and blue R6 #118.

Great bit of riding Smile good corner speed.

On the s bend just openered the bike up to much back end spun up and away it went , could off been a lot worse but I never let go on that bike till it was stoped still, didn't want it flipping over. Exhaust bar and couple pieces of fairing, all come upto just over 300 pound, just need exhaust now, was getting a after market pipe anyway so not to bothered about that, got my next day booked in on the 31st at mallory. You going?

Will get a track bike sorted soon, can't really go to mad as my road bike is my pride and joy and it's only a year old, so to much money to keep sliding it down the track. But had a great day apart from that.
Just stoped motocross from to many injurys then I do my first track day and bin it ha, come home with a bruised swollen arm but no broken bones this time. Only just got back on the bike from breaking my leg motocrossing so thought i will do track days instead thinking it be safer but im unsure now ha, Things we do for fun Ay.

Can go out on an ACU race license, or a road one. Whether they check or not is something else.

Loved it mate but was on my road bike top so I always held back that little bit too much as I didn't want to end up binning it! Been out and bought a track bike now so hopefully I should be back at mallory soon to have another cracking at it. I know where I was going wrong, so as soon as I get to grips with the new bike I should be able to step it up a notch or two!

105 means 105, they have no wiggle room. Head down a week before your day and get it tested if you want, or put a stock system on.

My gsxr was 105.9db, they didn't have a problem with it just said I may get pulled off if the track meters picked me up. They didn't, so no problem. There were plenty of bikes louder than mine there also...
