[Sobottka]

brand new bathrooms with free showers sponsored by kohler (i think). nice!
camping available pretty much anywhere, its feels very much like a state park with trees everywhere.

[Burt Munro]

Noid, I have a conflict on Saturday that will tie me up till about 8pm Saturday.

I wasn't planning on going for Sunday, but now that I know you're going to be there I might just drive all night to harass you!

Looked around for a recent video, and this was all I could find. Hopefully it helps somebody.

If you've only ever been to HPT and Road America, BHF is a bit more "rustic". I do have to say the showers are better than HPT though... at least on the lady's side. Great track for spectators as most of the track is easily accessible. Garage space is limited/non-existant. If you camp, it can get pretty cold at the end of September. Fire wood can be found in the woods, or at some of the gas stations in town.

And bring bug spray.

[Tornado Bait]

Soo.....I should bring bug spray?

Ron that's all I keep hearing from these guys is bring bug spray and beer....

BHF is surrounded by wetlands, and is wooded. The mosquitoes are usually pretty bad early morning/dusk/evening. Then during the day there are biting midges (no-see-ums). If it's cold, you'll be fine but if it's still warm out, it can be misery.

HPT has thunderstorms and tornadoes, we have itchy insects.

Hey; since I'll be up there, I want to meet everyone especially Miss Spidey. 

You guys sound like a nice crowd but, with a lil WERA flair. He He... 
Oops, did I say that out loud? Uh Oh, so much for "nice"... 

[jigs]

Awesome....looking forward to seeing everyone.You should be able to pull all kinds of video I would Imagine,we'll be heppy to sit around the campfire a share little secrets of the track,I'd be happy to do a track walk with anyone Saturday Morning,I'll be there Friday from 4 pm on of someone wants a track walk too.Best,quickest tip I can give it's mostly late apex every turn.If you get into the habit of turning in too early there,outside of the track comes up awefully quick,and needless to say you blow your drive out.Bus stop in particular,the first right hander you want to hit late.

[grasslander]

I'll be there Friday from 4 pm on of someone wants a track walk too.

John I'd love to take a track walk Friday evening!

i was under the impression that BFR was 1.95mi long, and i would say its technical not point and shoot.

[jigs]

Hey Mikey,we missed you last round.....yup 1.95 mi, and I would say technical,of coarse,Robbie's riding style is point and shoot at every track...........

[Knightslugger]

nooo... it's pretty much point and shoot. if you can look where you need to go, you can be pretty fast. just don't go wider than need be around 6 or 7.
