CCS: SouthEast

Just got my license for CCS... My first race will probably not be till towards the end of the season to get the bike and myself ready for it (mainly getting myself ready for it). I was wondering if anyone else here are memebers of CCS and what races y'all are planning to ride in.

Dan and I are shooting for all of the races at VIR. We might try to hit another track or so..... Tires cost too much!

Now that you have your license, you can buy tires from Trackside. I think Dan got a pretty good deal, but they only sell Dunlops. I like the Metzeler Rennsports.

Thanks, but I think I am going to stick with my Pirellis as the bike is set up nicely for them.

Thanks. I'll be running USS and GTU again. What classes you guys runnig? I'll be there Friday for practice...never been to VIR. Hope I can figure it out quickly. Any tips about VIR you want to throw out are appreicated! I hear it's a fun track, I've watched the televised races but really don't chit about the track until I get on it. How's the grip/tire wear? What kinda times are you guys running?

Look for a #823 red/black cbr 929. That's my teamate. Or a primered 954 w/ a beaten silver tank.

We are running MW supersport, HW supersport and MW superbike. VIR is a very fun track. Turn 1 is kinda hairy because of the high entry speed, watch out for the speed bump going into turn 3 ( they put a drain pipe under the track) and take it easy going up turn 7 (after the bridge) until you get your line down, the transition up the hill is kind of abrupt. Good luck, hopefully I'll catch up with you on Saturday.

Re: CCS: SouthEast

At VIR I got 4th in GP, 3rd in GTO and 2 in USS in the rain.

Don't think I'll be making it to the next race (Jennings) but plan to attend Roebling.

Sorry guys I didn't really go looking for you....where were you pitted?
