Trackday prep day date poll..

[Stupe]

theres the dates gino tossed out for a prep day at his house...its multiple choice, and most votes wins..(also gino,throw out a time thats good..im think'n 10-10:30ish)..
stuff you'll need to bring:
bottle of water-wetter and at least 2 gallons of distilled water(for flushing and replacement)..you can do this at home too, just make sure its totally flushed with no green coming out, and make sure you let the thermostat open so it circulates(it might take a few flushings)and make sure all the air bubbles are out of the system or it will overheat....
1 automotive radiator hose clamp(one that will fit around your oil filter..4" maybe?)..
at least 3, 1/16" drill bits(they tend to break easy lol)..
safety wire and safety wire pliers if you have it(we'll have some if you dont)..
all your leathers,helmet,boots and gloves for suspension setup(in case ginos up for it)..

[Stupe]

lets get some votes roll'n in..its prolly gonna be mostly the new guys..so this is to help you out... post up!!!!
here are the requirements for mid-o..

Bike Preparation:

•All bikes MUST pass technical inspection prior to admittance to the track. If your bike DOES NOT pass tech inspection, you will NOT receive a refund.
•Tires and brakes must be in good condition. Tires should be at least 75 percent of new condition. Any tires that are bluing from excessive wear will be disallowed. Slicks are allowed in 85 percent plus condition. We will have on site tire service at each track day, so if your tires don't pass, you will have the opportunity to purchase replacement tires to pass tech.
•All glass, headlight, turn signals, and plastic lenses must be taped over or removed. Side mirrors must be removed for the advanced group and at least taped over for all other groups.
•We recommend, but do not require removal of center stands. No bikes with center stands will be allowed in the Advanced/Racer Group due to the ground clearance issue.
•All machines must have an operational handlebar mounted kill switch/button and self-closing throttle in good working condition.
•Advanced and Intermediate group riders MUST use water or water wetter or a non-ethyl glycol based anti-freeze/coolant. Approved Poly Glycol brands are: Evans, 7th Gear, Liquid Performance, and Engine Ice. NO AUTOMOTIVE ETHYL GLYCOL BASED COOLANTS ARE ALLOWED.
•It is recommended that Advanced and Intermediate riders safety wire drain plugs and oil fill caps. Minimum requirement is RTV silicone on both. We highly suggest securing the oil filter as well.
•All valve stems must have caps.
•Wheel balance weights must be well-secured.
•License plates must have bolts taped or be removed

Rider Gear Requirements:

•All riders must be at least 18 years of age and have a valid driver's license.
•Damage free DOT or SNELL full-face helmet with face shield.
•Riding boots that fully cover the ankle.
•Gauntlet style gloves with full wrist coverage.
•One or two piece leathers. Two piece leather suits must zip together for intermediate or advanced groups. Ballistic nylon suits such as Joe Rocket, AeroStitch etc. are acceptable in the Novice and Intermediate Group only provided they are either one piece or zip together with at least 50% zipper contact with reinforced and padded shoulders, elbows, hips, and knee areas. No chaps.
•Advanced and Intermediate group riders MUST WEAR A BACK PROTECTOR. Soft back pads sewn into suits are not enough. No back protector = no track time!

on a side note... hey gino,are you gonna have a recepticle for anti-freeze? prolly gonna have to have some sort of container if peeps are gonna be swap'n out..

[Whiteboy]

If he doesent I can get like a 20 gallon plastic container for it. Ill grab one from work just in case.

[Gino]

a better question is what to do with it after we are done. Does anyone have a way of disposing of used antifreeze?

[Bagger]

dump it in a stone driveway?.. good rememdy for local pests and annoying neighborhood pets..

[Whiteboy]

Im sure somebody takes it for Recycling , we can check with Autozone I know they take used oil?

[Gino]

yes they do but antifreeze...

[OZ]

None of the autoparts stores take antifreeze. We would have to take it to a shop that does coolant flushes.

[Whiteboy]

oh ok. Its great grass killer, loL!!! J/K

Note April 11th is Moto Gp Season opener
