My Vegas Track day Photo Blog thread....

EDITED.... More video down in the thread... but here ya go...




Friday morning... Last minute prepping...


Tapin' her eyes shut.


Plate and rear signals removed... fuses out.


Because race bike...


Menacing isn't it?


Friday night... Had to pack up the stuff.. get it ready to pack into the rig in the morning... Essentials... Chonies... The ones with flames give me 10 more horsepower... the ones with martini glasses... well.. I AM going to vegas..


Shared a Fat Tire with "Black Sunshine" as a nightcap... she likes beer.


Then cozied up with the kitty cat for some snuggle action before turning in with dreams of high speed cornering in my head.


Saturday morning....
Had to get up early and load the truck... working half a day and it's less than an hour to blast off! woohoo!!

She's loaded up and ready to roll!


GoPro's and Sony cam? CHECK!!


Proudly displaying my "No Squidding" stickers... nosquidding.com - welcome


Let's blow this Popsicle stand!



....to be continued

Gassing up in Baker or some shit...


Almost to Primm (Stateline)


Leaving my hotel at about 6am and headed to LVMS


Finally here! They had not even fired them up yet. About 7am Sunday. 45* and partly cloudy. It better get warmer!


The main grid/pit area.


Bike #9 = Christian Bale. Yes.... Batman. (M.o.M. - please keep your swooning private)


My baby is back on terra firma and wants to GO FAST!!!


Did I mention it's flippin' cold out today? I forgot my hat.... so what would anyone do? Wrap a Repsol shirt around yer ears and go on with life man...


The first sessions of the day, because it's a school setting, are pretty slow... didn't break out the GoPro's until later in the morning when the speeds were getting faster... and lines were learned. It was my first time on this track and the pavement was a bit cold in the morning. Best to learn early so you can HAUL ASS LATER!!


Random student rider with the NASCAR oval in the background.


She's been running so perfect today! Holy damn hell shit yeah son! I think I need to go change my shorts! That last session gave me lady wood!


And yours truly



So the video is coming... I have a bunch of stuff to go through before I start chopping up footage. So stay tuned....

On my way back out... I had to stop off for dinner at the Hard Rock. Here are some pics...

My victory beer for riding well and not falling off. Dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe.


Why? Because it's fucking KISS!!!


Why? Because it's JOHNNY fuckin' CASH!!!


Why? Because it's fucking SLIPKNOT!!!

No Shit!??!?!?

Nice man! If I'd have known I would have come out to the pits at lunch... They don't let us riff raff mingle with the students much.. hahahaha.

Bummer about your cam though... what bike number were you?
