Default Track days... who's gone to one?

Just curious to see if there are any track junkies here(no, not the quarter mile track ). I'm hoping to attend a track day really soon if I can find a good deal on a used ex250 before the season ends.

I do track days when I can. I was supposed to do one at Infineon on May 8th but it got rained out. Trying to find the time off of work to schedule another..

Yeah, the few that are held on a weekend are usually twice the price.

Me. Well, I used to. Raced WERA F1, 750 'bike and stock class for a couple years, fell down a lot, spent too much money, had a blast. HIghly recommend the track day thing.

btw I might suggest that you check out www.wera.com classifieds for a nice used small displacement race bike instead of torturing yourself on an EX. You can pick up a track prepped SV or CBR F3 for dirt cheap and have a LOT more fun with it. Good luck, buy GOOD leathers & be safe. It's a blast.
