Signing up for my 1st cornering school! - 8/29/2007 8:44:45 PM    StangLou   Posts: 38 Joined: 6/25/2006 Status: offline Well I think I am biting the bullet in the am and sign up for a Riders Skill 1 CornerSpeed Class at VIR.  I work with a womans who's husband is an instructor there, and he is going to give me a hand setting the bike up.  He will also be one of my instructors so   Ive had my bike for almost a year now, and really want to learn how to get lower in the turns.  Ive always went in a straight line with my cars, but really enjoy the twisties on the bike.  Im pretty nervous as it is on the bike, so I am curious to see how I handle everything come track day.  It should be a blast though, and I am hoping they have people up to take pics!  Wish me luck!!!  If its not full, I will be going at the end of Sept!!! _____________________________ '99 CBR 600F4 Erion Slip-on, K&N air filter, Jet Kit Post #: 1

Perhaps we could go together.  I believe they have slots left. _____________________________ TrackDay Ready 02''F4i ZG Double Bubble, Galfer SS Lines, PCIIIr, Muzzy s/o, NRC cover, Shift Minder(anyone want it?), Speedbleeders, Vortex sliders, fender elimated, GP Shift Ohlins, Racetech, Showa Custom Suspension Teaching Fun and Prosperity (in reply to slip_) Post #: 4
