Default Re: never been to a track day, what you like to have known before your first track experience?

I havnt done a trackday either, but from what I gather these are the sensible ideas

-Go at your own pace. Mr GSXR1000 going that fast will only go in the gravel, dont follow him

-seek advice from the instructors at the track, they will help you with the best lines and make your experiance safer and more enjoyable

-dont go hell for leather until you have some heat in your tyres and brakes!

-its gonna sap alot of energy out of you - eat little, and often. Big meals will make you feel sleepy and rob you of confidence

-dont friggin bin it, unless its your crap-heap of a track bike and you really dont care.

Hope this gives you some things to ponder on!

Matt
