VIR May 24th?

I got a flier from D&D Imports and they are hosting a track day at VIR North course for $185. A tad more expensive than the NESBA memeber rate ($165) but much cheaper than their non member rate ($230) Anyhow, I am signing up tomorrow assuming that there is room available. Let me scan the flier for anyone that wants to see it :)

If I went, would I need to safety wire my bike and tape my headlights and take the kickstand off and all that good stuff?

So to fully answer your question: You have to safety wire the oil filter and plug, drain the antifreeze, remove mirrors, tape over all glass, lightgs, spedo :)

I don't have a back protector, how much do they run?

Ok..I'm looking on ebay now for a back protector...How hard is it to safety wire the oil drain bolt and the oil filter?? Also, when it says you can't have antifreeze, what do you use?? Just straight distilled water or what??

Also, when it says you can't have antifreeze, what do you use?? Just straight distilled water or what?? There is a product called water wetter that you should be able to buy at any bike shop. Dont use straight water since the water pump needs lubrication and it will not get it from just distilled water alone. To safety wire the oil filter and plug is easy. Let me see if I can find some pics for ya to see

Crap... I dont have pictures of it.. weird since I take pics of everything :lol Here is a simple safety wire thingy :) http://www.cornerspeed.net/wiring.html Basically you need a 1/16th drill bit and drill a hole either throught the oil drain plug or throught one of the corners. Then drill another hole near buy and wire it up. For the oil filter get a cable clamp and drill a hole near by. Then place the clamp on the filter, tighten, the wire up :)

Ok, when is the deadline to sign up for the track day?? Hopefully I can get everything done in time :)
