Riding since I was a kid, mostly ATV's and some dirtbikes. Got licensed (MSF Course) in '01. Riding street since then. I did my first trackday in Oct, '06 at JGP. I earned my AHRMA race license in March of '07 (never recieved it, I don't have a bike that I can run in AHRMA, so I didn't bother), I became an MSF ridercoach in early September '07. I would estimate I have done about 20 trackdays give or take, all at Jennings GP (personal best, 1:29.8) and Barber Motorsports Park (1:55.9). I am leaving tomorrow to do a trackday at Barber on Saturday.
That is impressive.. I started riding as a kid as well on dirtbikes.. probably around 8 years old.. rode only dirt bikes exclusively until 1998.. that was when I got my Yamaha XT600 dual sport and actually figured out I was doing more street riding than dirt riding because good dirt spots were way too far away.. sold my truck because it was a money pit.. then it became really hard to ride dirt.. so I bought a Katana in 2001 and loved it.. sold it 6 months later and bought my 2000 Yamaha R6.. went to the track for the first time in 2005.. got my WERA racing license but never did anything with it.. renewed it in 2006, 2007 it snowed and 2008 i got it again.. but I have no money, time and "permission" (Mrs. MP says trackdays ok racing nfg) to race.. so i just do trackdays..
