| Erion 600RR at Cornerspeed VIR trackday Guys/gals,
on this thread I talked about my two day trackday at VIR and my experience... Cornerspeed always attracts some real perfessionals and there always seems to be a few "big" names at their events... This trackday was no exception.
Ron Barrick, Director of AMA Pro Racing was there with a 2003 Erion 600RR of roger lee hayden's... It was trick, it had the HRC (arrow) exhaust, the KIT Showa rear shock, a quick shifter and some very cool rearsets. Attached are some pics. And yeah, it would frigging MOVE!
Also, Nate Kern, formerly of Hooter's Suzuki and now rides in the international BMW boxer cup was there. G DAMN he is fast! I watched him back it in going into VIR-N turn 1, right in front of me, AMAZING... I watched him spin the rear wheel of his GSXR1000 at 140 in a kink... Simply awesome.
Just wanted to share the Erion pics. Pretty cool to see HRC hardware up close and personal. |

I'll never forget the look on Nate's face last year after testing the conditions at VIR South.  |
