My mates birthday is the end of April, and mine is the end of may. Our wives bought us track days. It just so happened that nick and one of his mates were going to.
I love the new section, tight and twisty, and I was getting my knee down for the first time since I broke my leg

And this is one of our group, who became a streetfighter on the day while going through turn 4b, the old turn 9. He binned his 25 th anniversary edition Gixxer, and when he got it back to the pits, we encouraged him to pull off the broken shit, including the dash, and go back to scrutineering. His original sticker was on his windscreen.

A guy in the garage next to us had the coolest trackbike ever. He had turned his crashed mt01 into a stupidly fun trackbike, judging by the state of his tyres, it handled well

And some of nick on his hyper, his mate on the z, and Toby on his busa

I'll be heading out again soon, but not sure when yet, my brother wants to do one. I also bought a sp1 oil cooler for the Vfr ( 4 rows instead of 2) to help the cooling, the Vfr has never overheated, but the fan is always running. I want to get the bigger cooler on before I do another track day.
