I'm going to Laguna Seca. I can't wait to see the 1190RS race, and the moto GP race.
Who is attending?

I should be there....a little disappointed the paddock passes are all gone. According to the track (take with proverbially grain of salt) Dorna limits the number of paddock passes. Primadonnas.

I really don't give a flip about the motoGP paddock as the bikes and riders hide. I do want to go into the AMA paddock, but apparently we won't be able to due to these limited paddock passes.

Here's brilliant thought. Sell separate paddock passes for MotoGP and AMA. The AMA paddock is so huge there shouldn't be any concerns. Sad.

PS if someone has a paddock pass and they can send a high res image of it, I would be obliged.

Yah, like a thief in the night.

Look, if you would like to borrow a paddock pass, head up to the Love Shack, identify yourself to Jerry or Al, and ask if you can borrow one that some of us graciously leave for sharing.

Yah, like a thief in the night.

I would happily buy one, but they aren't available. It;s not like I am taking someone's seat for crying out loud. MotoGP is dictating how many can enter the paddock and since I don't care to even get close to that part of the paddock, it's a bit stupid.

PS--Thanks for the offer,

I didn't know there are separate paddock passes for moto gp and ama.

They do not. It was a hypothetical situation. I am sure it will never happen because the market for AMA-only paddock pass would probably be too small.}

theres actually 3 levels of passes. I am a volunteer at Laguna, so iv done many a motoGP.

There is the general admission, the paddock, and then the pits. Pit passes are rare, and until I work up to becoming an AD, i wont ever get in there : (

Any other folks attending?? I cannot believe that so few people are going to check out the 1190 in its second race. Hope to see some folks out there!

A number of Buell enthusiasts attending are conversing on other forums and not posting here for one reason or another.

If I can find flight from okc, I think I might be able to wing it. Anyone have any ideas the best times to look for in & out? I'm guessing fly out Friday afternoon at the latest, but not sure what's best on transportation & room. Is it easier to just rent a car? The site says Santa Cruz is closest followed by San Jose. This will be solo trip, so will definitely stop by the Love Shack to hang out with some buellers.
Thx for any info. This is gonna be a fun weekend either way.

::::update:::: fly in tonight, fly out Monday morn. My favorite american circuit. Very excited. Wish I could've made today's festivities. See y'all @ the Love Shack or anywhere else BadWebbers are!!!

So i checked AMA and am confused which the 1190RS will race in - Pro Daytona SportBike, Pro American Superbike, Pro National Guard Superbike?

I even checked AMA and at least Daytona and Superbike both list the 1125R...

Now i'm confused - which is it racing in? And any timeslots to watch on TV?

Hope the schedule helps someone who actually knows which it's racing in...
