Which tracks do all of the SE members ride and with whom?

There has got to be something more common than nesba and stt.

Looking myself. This link was posted a while back, it may be helpful Trackday Central.

The guys on this board do a lot of track days, maybe some tips here---> GSB .

I go with a few buds to Jennings a few times a year. Look on their forum, on JenningsGP, there is some private days that are semi-open if you catch them just right. Otherwise you'll be at the track with about 80 other people.

Way too crowded. Just read on there about a guy doing a private day on a thursday and invited anyone to join him for $100.00. What a deal!

Yep, if you don't mind the drive ti VIR or Barber, they are THE only group that does a trackday 100% correct! 22 max per group, you can't beat that... CR's that actually DO their job! AMA guys showing you the line, telling you what to work on, its INVALUABLE!

I have been wanting to try TPM and STT... But right now, my "without a doubt you'll be pleased" recomendation is cornerspeed...

If you pre-register with Jennings, its $105 a day for sat/sun anyway.

Paying in advance for a summer track day will limit you to possibly a half day of riding due to the afternoon thunderstorms that this state is famous for almost every single phucking day.

After the last track day, I'd just rather wait until another private day with far less riders. There were over 80 riders last time I was there and over 30 in my group. I got one clean lap in all day and was very distracted by having to dodge several downed riders. Towards the end of the day after I just missed hitting the second helmet on the pavement, I decided to load up and call it a day. Obviously people were getting too tired and push too far. The .org day I had numerous clean sessions with nobody around to distract my otherwise clear concentration. If I was a racer, it wouldn't bother me but that's not why I go.
