Prep is very important. And most places will not refund your money if your bike doens't pass Tech.

Not only the loss of money for the track day, but you miss out on a lot of fun as well!

Also note: Chain must have proper tension... and sprocket in good condition.

Last year I had to fail someone because their sprocket was missing teeth. I thought it was a common sense thing, I guess not.

That's pretty sad, I would think that's common sense too... Maybe I should add that in, heh.
