Alright-who is going to make it out?  Anybody ride it yet to give us any indication on what gearing to use??

I was wondering the same thing.  It looks long, but it's hard to tell from a picture.

I'm thinking 16-41 for you Spooner.

I'll be there, and I have a special surprise for the lightweight peeps.

I just watched the track video from their website, and it doesn't look to be that fast.  It is long, but pretty tight.  I'm guessing running down to turn 3 will be the fastest area.  Anyway, I'm thinking somewhere between Hallett and Heartland on gearing.

Whats the link to the video? 

I'm thinkin 15/48 for the SV-not sure about the R6.  Maybe 16/50 to start..??

15/48 will probably be a good place to start if you are planning on using all of 6th.  I may gear tall and see if I can keep it out of 6th.  On the R6, I don't know....

Ok Sicko's...

I made a post on the MRA site and it appears MAM gearing is a good place to start-or in the case of Kevin, just keep what ya got ;)

Hey, it's hard to keep your mind out of the gutter when you're not much taller than the curb.

Well, at least Kevin meets half of the criteria (from what I've been told!)  :kicknuts:
