I'll for sure be there, just not sure if I am running. I feel pretty well this mourning though!
Mr. Track Day is not sure if he’s going to run because he is in mourning.

Please recall that you promised to airbrush me out of the video, or at least run it in reverse.
If the video is from the last run, it was hard for me. I started making mistakes. Braking late, turning late, coming into corners too hot - for me. I backed off. I don't think I got over 70 mph that last session. Job #1, is to live for the next track day.
A little disappointed with the turnout, but if I can hang with @TheRock and @Cameron Roberts, and get in a few laps, I am happy as a pig.
Perfect weather, and the Tanoms left early, as I predicted. 2.2 mile track with just three of us is still a lot of fun. Kudos to @Gadgeteer and bride for their cameo appearance.
Funny that the bikers were all coming over due to the tire cry during our runs. Tire cry on two wheels is usually followed by a wreck. We gave lots of biker rides, which was fun.
So happy that I got in 3 track days this year. Have not missed any days since my first run 9/16. Never thought about that when I bought mine, but dang, that is good clean fun. Truly manly moments.
I was not, err, never ever the fastest on the track, but a few runs, I was first in the pit. So, I guess I won those runs. Yay!.
And, I erred in not sharing kind words to @TheRock for getting, yet again, this ride setup.
I love these things.
Thanks Rocky!
Yes indeed! Many thanks and kudos to @TheRock and the team at Roger Lyle's Motorcycle Xcitement for getting us access to the track at Summit Point! It's a shame more of us could not make it out, but it seemed the two-wheelers also had a lighter turn-out than usual too. Even though I couldn't run the track due to my mechanical and funding issues, it was a pleasure getting to see some of the Crew again. It was also an interesting change to be a spectator for once. Previously, I've been too pumped to sit out a run and just watch.
Also, has anyone considered taking up the torch for future Track Days while @TheRock is on assignment? He will be sorely missed until his safe and happy return, but I'd hate to wait until then to have another go at the track. I would offer, but I am not very good about staying in touch with the outside world and all that is going on out there. Too many other distractions in my head. If it wasn't for @ethermion and his... persistance (ahem)... I would miss even more news and events than I already do. (Thanks E! )
@TheRock, again, you will be missed and we all wish you a safe, happy, and speedy return! :cool:

@Jdin mentioned to me that he would take up the torch organizing Summit Point Track Days!!
You mean the guy who didn't show?
I just won't be the same without you!

True, it won't be the same without @TheRock and he's left some big shoes to fill... which is surprising for someone of his size :eek: ... I'm sure @Jdin is up to the task. I know how much he missed being there yesterday. If it weren't for those darned kids and their prize winning varmints...
