Super Duper

So at the track in December I did in fact punch a three by four inch hold in my engine case by jamming a rod through it. Which is pretty startling on a 2007 japaneese bike. It's amazing how pissed the track day organizers get when you dump oil all over their track.

Laguna Seca has a noise restriction on the track. So if you run a loud bike, you have to throttle back to keep the bike quiet enough to pass the noise restriction. Or if your dad/track technician is clever, you can just shove a redbull can in one of your exhaust pipes to make a kludge silencer like this guy did. Ha!

It's astonishing to think of 15 year old kids riding (fast) at the track. With no legal street riding experience, they know only the track. This guy with the redbull can is Shane McGowen and probably going to ride AMA soon.
