Yeah, so I heard. I have a good friend in the Navy who is currently stationed there. He has a GSXR1k and he and I used to ride track down here in Jax. He keeps telling me to come visit, I want to, but the plane tickets aren't cheap!

I have done a few. BIR, VIR, Pahrump Raceway, and our technical college has a driving course that I have done a few advance rider sessions, not really a track day but kind of.

I have only had my falco out once and it was this past summer. Otherwise, I had an old beat up FZR that was a blast on the track. Now with the Falco, I hate to even risk dumping her...

Maybe I will get another track bike someday... :idk I would love to do more.

You should look into doing one of the racing schools up here then. For about US$1K you could put together a Phase 1 (introductory) and Phase 2 (advanced) school on two consecutive days, using the school's bike, leathers, helmet, gloves, boots, gas..... I've known people who came from as far away as SC to do that and they thought that even including the extra hotel and transportation bills, it was worth it. It's not that far a drive from NJ. You just have to make sure you book in the off-season, because the classes fill up FAST (no pun intended).

I actually just realized that the two trackdays I'm doing this coming week are on the 1 year anniversary of when I took my MSF class, which was the first time I ever sat on a motorcycle. Crazy how things have changed since then.

Yeah, there may be a small difference. From closed parking lot range to flying around tracks.
