Just confirmed I will be back in town for Chuckwalla on the 11th of November. A few of us were discussing the possibility of getting the SD brigade out there to terrorize the establishment. Who's in??
Here is the link: 23 spots still open for the B group...keep an eye on them as they will go fast!

Ok, I just signed up so now there are 22 places left in B group. My buddies Mark and Dino are for sure as well so we'll be down to 20 shortly.
How cool woould it be to have 8-10 SDs out there showing the sportbike riders the quick way around the track?!?!?!?!?

I usually run in A group, but I can see running the SD there in B if there's enough interest ... is that a race weekend?
I ask, in that too often those 'practice' dates turn into crashfests. Dustin and crew put on a good thing - but its all about the rider behavior. Main upside is that its a Friday - which tend to be more mellow, if for no other reason the real squids aren't committed enough to bail even a day's work for a trackday - unless its stupid cheap.
Convince us further Lowrance!

Hey John
Thanks for the heads up. I just signed up.I spoke to Dustin. I was not sure what group to go with.Since it's been over 15 years since I have been on a track.I went with the C group.
I just want to do some laps and have a fun day.He said if I look like I am fast enough I can go with the B guys.
For me it's just getting out there.
Gonna get new rubber 2 weeks before and get the bike all preped and ready to go.Won't ride it till track day.
I will see you there brother.Gonna be a great day. Hope to meet you and all the duke guys and have some fun.

I'll probably be there. I'm definitely doing the two trackdays at Chuckwalla in September and October. I think you'll be fine in the C group, but as previously mentioned, they're not too uptight about letting people switch groups if you find it too slow. As for lodging, I just make a nice weekend of it and stay in Palm Springs. When I've gone, I was always the only Superduke, so it'll be nice to see some others out there.

Yeah I was thinking of just doing the b group. I did willow for years. Did 1:48's on a over 500 lb bike. But it was a life time ago.It was weird when I did that 200 mile run in L A a couple of weeks ago, going thru Grimes felt so natural I felt it all comming back in a short amount of time.
Been so hot hear can't get any saddle time.Plus our roads, the fun ones have been full of cops.They know the only time you can ride is early am after that you will melt from the heat or your bike will.I am a rep for tech niche we make the cold vests I can ride later in to the summer.The roads get so hot your tyres melt even if I am ok.I tell you the vests really work.At least I can ride to work.Without it I have to drive.No way of doing speed runs unless your lucky today it was 118 degrees.
I like my diablos I can get them at a good price from friends.I hear good things about the dunlaps.I will try them next.Since I am used to these I want to stick with them the first track day.
I am sure that the closer it gets we will see how many of us we can get to go.It will be cool to see all the dukes out there.I am just happy to be going been so long.I have not even got the day off yet.I don't care not going to work that thurs and fri. Hell maybe even sat might have an eye problem.Can't see going to work

Just off the phone with Dustin. I explain to him my race weekend paranoia, he says "... dude - if you normally ride A, then sign up for A ...". "... its usually the B group where we have the most problems on any weekend ...".
I in turn ask "Hey - if I sign up for B, and its too lame, can I switch?" Answer: "Shouldn't be a problem dude!", "1/3 the people out there are in the wrong group because of ego-decisions, not reality-based ones - we try to sort that out".
OK, a couple of other factors (for me) - I'll be on the SD - nbd - but it isn't my track bike either.
Any of you other junkies on to get your trackday fix at CVR in November?

Hey John I am ready to go.Got all my gear.Just waiting to get the bike track ready.
I wish I could dial in the mapping better.I still think it is not running like it should.I really want to play around with the tune ecu.Just don't know enough. I don't know how to save my current map.then put in a map that a friend says is real good for the bike with the mods that I have.
I hope there are some guys out at track day that know more than me .I am going to bring my lap top with all the programs and the ecu cable.
I know my bike has more.It seems like it is running rich.Good enough for track day I just wish I could get a dyno tune and have it at a 100%
I am so looking forward to meeting everyone and having a great day.Going in the other direction should be interesting.
What time should we be there by?It's only 126 miles from my house so I plan to leave zero dark thirty .
See you there bro.

I recently ran a GoPro on a chest mount strap. Waiting on my buddy to send me some of the footage. He said it turned out pretty good. I'll post is up here when he get's off his ass and sends it.
I'm headed out there Thursday around noon. We set up in the South/East corner of the pits last time and that seemed to work out really well. Only a few there when we showed up Thursday but packed when we woke up Friday AM. Might want to try and make it out Thursday night if you can.
There is cell service.

Slippers ARE easy to install. Can do it in less than 30 minutes. The potential issue is getting it adjusted with the right amout of slip in a short amount of time and then getting comfortable with it's performance so you can enjoy it and the bike properly. My point was the bike doesen't need one for this track. Could you go faster with one? Probably. Will you have more fun? Probably not...in fact you may have less due to the uncertainty of performance.
I probably outweigh you by a bit. I'm currently 255lb without gear. Since this was the stiffest spring we could find, the sag numbers are definitely off. I seem to remember 35mm rider (might be 40), can't remember the amount of preload I'm running (too much, gave it an extra turn or two when I got it back from RT), and static is about 3-4mm based on the ol seat bounce. I definitely need a stiffer spring...this I know. Can you ask Ed how much the 1200lb spring costs and if he can get one in time to bring out with him Thursday night? If not no worries, I can install it at a later time.

I'll just order it from him and install it later. Don't really want to mess with it at the track.
Squat while exiting corners is not too bad simply because I've got a lot of preload keeping bike up in the stroke. Extra LS comp damping is helping as well. The down side is a overly harsh ride hence the need for a stiffer spring. I've known this since I installed the 19.6kg/mm spring. Thought that was as stiff as I could get so figured I was stuck with the harsh ride. Now that I know a stiffer spring is available I'll be ordering one up shortly.
Thanks again for the info.

Do you folks stay at a hotel in the area or camp?
I'll be borrowing a pick up truck to bring the bike and a pop up tent for the sun. If I make it out there I'm pretty sure I'd like to get my suspension (stock) looked at. I bet I'm 215 with gear on.

I'm moving apartments this weekend and I can't give the lengthly email that this post and forum deserves.

Good to meet all - thanks for posting this up John.
Great day - weather couldn't have been better. Cool, partly cloudy, very low wind.
Was great to have Ed Sorbo in the pit doing setups for us, and doing lead-follows on the track. I never cease to get solid input from Ed. Pretty cool that Chris Ulrich was there with us most of the day too.
Only low point of the day (brief), was when Chim-chim the monkey boy (me), on the last lap of the last session decided that putting some racing stripes on his SD by falling was somehow a grand idea. Contrary to popular belief, that's not the best way customize a bike's appearance. Can be good starting point ... No worries - we can fix it!
Ken - give Pridmore's STAR 2-day program a go (they are at CVR this time of year). Affordable, and you won't be disappointed. Take 2 friends, and all three of you will get a good deal too - if you buy 5 days, the 6th is free.
Gents - let's do this again.

Vic--- sorry, packing today.
Get a "photobucket account" and upload the pics there.
Each pic in photo bucket has 4 different links on it. You choose the one that says HTML code "img" I believe and paste that here.

That was a fantastic weekend! Weather and track were perfect! Great to finally meet all of you.
A few things that'll stick with me:
Vic's enthusiasm was infectious. Got me all fired up to go out and ride.
The look on Mike's face when his bike wouldn't start right before Tech. I was going to let him sweat a little then go over and help him back track his actions to find the fault...he found it on his own. Nice one!
Ken's KTM Orange Crocs (that's plastic shoes for those of you that aren't familiar) and his ability to sneak not only 1 but 2 (two, dos) Victory Laps after his first session. Can't wait to see the video of the one way conversation Ken. Post up soon!
The smiles on Vic and Ken's faces after their session long duals.
Jim's ability to ride a Bucking Bronco with his knee on the ground has to be seen to be believed. Never seen anyone go so fast on a slightly ill handling bike. The boy can ride.
Best part for me was passing all of those race bikes on a streetbike. Doesn't get any better than that!
Lookinig forward to the next one boys!
