Looks like he hasn't missed a beat from the days on the 1125R... I think it's gonna be a FUN season! |

He he he, I love sliding the rear in that turn too. Admittedly, though it felt awesome on my 9, I bet it wasn't a fraction as awesome as that. |

Living close to MMP here in Utah I did not know much about Jennings so I looked it up. NICE track. Nice layout also, with many turns and long straights. Looks like a track record was set by Geoff on an EMGO GSXR1000 at 1:14.51! It'd be nice to know if they were close to that on the 1190's. Waiting very patiently for the racing season to get going. Kicking a** as usual, both Geoff and Danny on an EBR bike........OUTSTANDING! |

An unconfirmed report says they were laying down 1.15s on the first day. For what it's worth I can throw down 1.25s on my stock XB and the average 600 expert is in the high teens. |

Most recent track record I could find was from five years ago, 1:14.51... Geoff on his M4-EMGO GSXR1000 Superbike. http://www.sportbikes.com/articles3bbd.html?id=275 02 |

I'm only sixteen and a half seconds off Danny's record! |

It would take him about 8 laps to lap you. He'd get me in about 6 |

Larry Pegram threw down a 1.13.15 on a BMW on Feb 03, 2012 (unoffically). |

Probably the glowing rear brake disk. |

"Probably the glowing rear brake disk." Yeah, cause everyone goes extremely heavy on their rear brake through a curve.... |

red thing i'd say it was duct tape over top a wheel weight a must have at the track |

Quoting Geoff may's FB page: "That's on the gas"....as in he wasn't backing it in on the brakes!!! |

I have seen other pics from that day. The red thingy is red tape over the wheel weights. |

>>> Yeah, cause everyone goes extremely heavy on their rear brake through a curve.... Yeah, cause Danny Eslick is just like "everyone" and would never consider using the rear break as a control to keep the rear wheel from spinning up too much. Admittedly, just a guess, likely inaccurate, but your ignorance is just too fun to make fun of. |
