Is this the Cregg I met at Quaker Steak awhile back? Dan told me about this ride, but I was at Deal's Gap this past weekend. Sorry I missed out...



*looks like you got a little close to the white paint around the 6:20 mark!

Ya.. wasnt a pucker factor.. but little more loose on the exit than I wanted.

wasnt the spot I thought you might be talking.. had one coming out of a right hander and dont know if the shadow on the road or what at 4;42,,, but was a fraction of second slow straightening, or dove in too deep on the apex.. and closer than I wanted to be on the exit ..

You guys need to bring it to CMP. You can get in there for like 125 a day if you pre-register. 140 day of. They're have mixed events there everytime the tracks not rented out. Very very few bikes, last time there was 8. You get 5 sessions. You just have to wire up the oil filter, cap and drain. Or RTV it.

Be nice to have a couple of rc's

I tried paper towel.. and no diff. Ya.. was looking for a software filter to eliminate it, but no luck yet. Was hoping to remove that frequency or noise. Ya.. kinda makes your head hurt.

Was trying to find some foam like on a mic. Will try cotton ball and see if that works.

As for the Cam.. just a Kodak 3.1 mp. Looking to buy better quality.. but does ok.

lol... made a mount using one of those "U" shaped plastic closet wall brackets for the plastic coated metal shelving material.. and cut to fit the tripod camera attachment.. and pull out one screw on tank.. 5mm. Notched it so I can spin it to fill tank (Revision B..lol).. will eventually buy one of those "U" shaped brackets that sit on the tank.. but for now.. guess it works. Kinda gets in way when Leaning over tank.. so little further forward would be good.

After riding a track, you'll laugh at agressive street riding. Plus riding that way on the street is pretty dangerous.

Great vid!

Now change your brake fluid as it's old and contaminated with water hence the brown color.
