Went to a trackday at the New Hampshire International Speedway back on August 14th and just got some pictures from the photographer on site. THe bike was great on the track and as the day wen ton I finally got pretty comfortable with pushing it around the track. I just wish they got some pics later in the day...

Looks like you had fun. Way to keep those elbows up!

I guess all those years of motocross and being yelled at about keeping my elbows up paid off.

One of the instructors was watching some video of our session during the trackday and asked all who were watching "which one of you is the motocross rider?"

THe day was very fun and I soon learned to hang off the bike more in order to avoid grinding the pegs and shift/brake lever into the pavement! Once I was properly hanging off I never touched again and was able to get on the power earlier and harder.

NH is a good track for the hyper, there are a lot of turns and only one straight. The bowl is prety cool. Who was the sponsor for that track day? I'll be up there sept 29,30 for TTD and in New Jersey Oct,13. Here is a pic of me at Louden.

The sponsor for the day I went on 14 August was Fishtail Riding School.

Who's holding the 29,30 September day?

I wanted to go back yesterday since my dealer was the host, but couldn't make it due to work.

Cool, It will be nice to see another hyper on the track. I'll look for you in NJ.

I am looking forward to. I had a pic of you now and I am sure I will spot you. I will be riding a Black S with Arrow 2-1-2 exhausts. I will be with a friend riding a yellow 998.
