Thought I'd post up some youtube vids of CCW for those who've never run the track in that configuration. I don't have any of my CCW vids on youtube, but I'm sure some of you will recognise these guys.

One difference between Track Days with cars vs motorcycles -- on the two-wheelers, we have to tape-over or disconnect brake lamps, turn signals, headlamps, etc. So it is still a bit weird for me to see the brake lights lighting-on at MSRH. (adds a new thrill factor, of some sort!) .

I guess the ultimate insult would be my middle finger breaking off and bouncing off your car.

......I give you guys too much free time leading up to the event. I think we are going to develop a time out system. You will have to wear the famous track shorts and work a corner during the event (no pun intended) ..........Phil

The problem with anyone wearing the ///M Club Shorts at a corner is that nobody will even want to go past the turn. There will be a pile-up that looks like I-45 @ Mt. Houston during rush-hour. (might make for good video, though, as long as we can blur-out the Shorts) You're right, though, this is what happens when there is a long gap between Track Days. I fully comprehend you guy's addiction to HPDEs. (for now, I'm resisting the mod bug,...for now....) .

First videos, then "pants", and now a middle finger air brake. Is there an age limit to the M Club? Like, if you act older than 14 years old...you're not welcome?
For the record...I might have been responsible for the air brake idea but I sure didn't make the picture. ROFL

Hey guys, I introduced myself on the Houston M Forum but I guess that site does not receive much traffic. Anyways, can I come to spectate this and just meet everyone and take pictures? The closes thing to a track I have seen is the Houston BMW chapter Autocrossing. If so, is there anyway to have a ride with an instructor (like autocrossing) to see what it's like so in the future when I do participate in a track day?
-Hai P.S. I only weigh 140 LBS when I drink a lot of water throughout the day. Last edited by HaiDef; 08-20-2012 at 02:05 PM.. |

You can definitely visit as a spectator...that's how I first met all these nice people and the event organizers (and my car wasn't delivered yet.) And I took quite a few photographs. However... the event organizers will have to share with you the specific rules regarding photography (i.e. there are several off-track spots from which to shoot). Additionally, they allow passengers, but only with the designated instructors. Make sure you bring a recent-model helmet for your head, even if you don't get a reply before Saturday. And check-up on the policies at MSRH, whether you're on their facility as a driver, passenger, or spectator: http://msrhouston.com/membership/policies .
