Hey Chris, get some descent fronts(as long as you have about half the material on the rears) and you will be fine, i would be concerned about pads more than lines.
I ran the car through about 10 track days without stainless steel lines, and all was well.
Fluid is a good idea however.
I will be out there running in street stock so come by and say hi!

You are in stock class!? Crap... Oh well, like I said, I won't be too competetive out there, but it should be fun anyway. My goal is at least not be in last place

Yeah, I'll definetly come by and say hi, I might be out there sat helping my roomate, and I'll def be out there sunday

Yeah rears should be ok, I think I'll get some decent fronts (Project Mu HC+ looks good/cheap enough for a track day). Already have the SS lines, and need to get some some ATE super blue fluid. Wish I could afford better stuff, but I'm pretty strapped right now.

Chris

I think practice starts around 8am. But you could get a couple hours of watching practice in before 3 I'm sure. Not exactly sure when the time attack sessions start.


Hey anyone have a suggestion on where I could take my motorcycle for repair? I didn't ride it for like 3-4 months and busted it out the other day, and it runs like **** - like it's on 3 cyl or something. It's a 2001 CBR929RR. I took off the tank, and the injectors to check them, but I don't know what else to look at (I don't know a whole lot about bikes).

I've been wanting to try out Motocafe.. it's right near my house and I hear its a pretty good place to get service done.. and hangout.
