I'll have to live vicariously through you right now. I don't think my bike will pass tech at the moment. I need a new Fan and at maybe an oil cooler.   Nillaice Posted on Wednesday, April 06, 2011 - 11:37 pm:        my next track day will be in june. don't tell me you'll still be on the kickstand then   Nillaice Posted on Friday, May 20, 2011 - 09:46 am:        June 11th Summit Point Shenandoah course. i'll be taking my truck with bikes is the back. if you can get an open trailer, i'll tow it. i've been spying tiny one in my neighborhood, and thinking about asking to borrow it. i know i can fit an XB in the bed, with teh tailgate up to allow for a trailer. so that'd make at least 3 bikes possible.... i gots the GPS, tent, cooler, 6 straps, 8 gallons in gascans, 2 propane canisters, and loading plank. i think the plan is to load up early or the day before, and be back by midninght 'try the track' looks like something they do for every track day and is free   09xb12r Posted on Friday, May 20, 2011 - 03:24 pm:        Well you know that I am in, and man I am excited Mario as of now is still a go to ride along for the show. packing up the night before would be cool we can pack up and then go out for dinner or something with the family, there has to be more people that want to join in on the fun, come on you all know you want to. do you want me to bring the grill again? if so just let me know.   Nillaice Posted on Friday, May 20, 2011 - 08:25 pm:        doesn't matter to me. i was just rattling off a list it would be easier to just grab some fast food, but i know it's not your favorite. ... i think grilling would work out better if i brought something to light it with   Xb12mel Posted on Wednesday, May 25, 2011 - 10:01 am:        Dang.... another missed opportunity. I'll be coming back from Vancouver Saturday the 11th, You guys have fun!!   Nillaice Posted on Thursday, May 26, 2011 - 05:15 am:        i'm all paid up. now i just gotta get the exhaust patched up ...   Nillaice Posted on Thursday, May 26, 2011 - 05:15 am:        too bad you can't make this one, mel. there will be more ...   Nillaice Posted on Sunday, May 29, 2011 - 08:12 am:        a guy i work with (Larry J) on a ZZR and his buddy Rob on a yellow 600 something are a tenative for Summit Point. they have their own transportation, and will be coming from VB. dwight, did you wanna try some DOT 5.1 brake fluid to see if it helps brake fade? i'm thinking a big, goofy looking scoop would do the trick too, but dunno where to snag one from ...   09xb12r Posted on Sunday, May 29, 2011 - 10:54 am:        sure i will pick some up this week how much should i get and thats cool it will b fun mario is still coming as well   Nillaice Posted on Sunday, May 29, 2011 - 09:17 pm:        dunno. enough to flush and fill the caliper, line and master cylinder. ... get a big bottle and i'll split it with you. we probably should have changed the fluid after allready cooking the brakes. once every 2 years per the maintenance schedule doesn't take trackdays into consideration definetly need to bring a full cooler (mine's kinda small-ish) so mario has something to do all day. and it's nice to be sociable at the paddock, the night before   09xb12r Posted on Sunday, May 29, 2011 - 11:12 pm:        ok I will get some and let me know when you are free to come over and flush the brakes. Yeah I believe i just had mine flushed at the 20k service, but will def put better fluid in. well I will ask mario if he has a big cooler and if so let him know to bring it.   Nillaice Posted on Monday, May 30, 2011 - 01:32 am:        i'll have to play it by ear. i'll text you ...
