Premium Member blackout Posted July 26, 2018 Author Premium Member Share Posted July 26, 2018 Watching the Utah races of last weekend, I'm glad I live near tracks where grass can grow. The sand on the Utah track was nuts. Get off line and you are screwed. To me, Pittrace looks like a fast track. The only track I have run, nyst, is slower, but technical. Top speeds for the front straight is under 150 for the liter bikes. Craig Mapstone Upstate New York Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top speeds are not quite as high as Road Atlanta, VIR or certainly Road America, but obviously faster than something like NYST. At last years MA tests, they were coming through the kink on the back straight at over 150 with mid 50 deg lean angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossrider Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 3 weeks out and here we sit waiting. I think its my new PR for pre-race readiness. Sadly were going to be a 1 Yamaha team, Harry et al couldn't make it. I lost a crew member as well. It's tough for real people to commit to a week on the road for someone else's folly what with kids, life, jobs and such. Giddyup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
