If the track was smooth I'd like it alot more.  With all the bumps I feel like I'm just twisting the throttle and holding on!  Traction in the rain and cold is awful, but I've found it to be ok in the warm.

Of course I don't think I've ever been to a track I didn't like.

QuoteAre you talking about outside T6?? You got it all wrong! That's not a curb, it's a BERM. Hit it wide open with both tires and it keeps you on the track.
No wonder the "locals" are owning you...

its on now!!!  READY THE CRASH TRUCK, someone hold my sign...  :ahhh:

actually i was talking about the curbing on the chinany thing... dont ask me what turn, I think in S. Beloit they only count every other turn... i count 12 but they somehow only get to 7...  best recollection its before the bus stop... been awhile since I've been there...

or lose a brake lever going into 1....  :ahhh:   :biggrin:



or T9, that sucks almost as bad

With the right setup the bumps aren't that bad.  Biggest pain for me was T4 with the bumps there, but now I have it working a lot better. 

Cold traction isn't that bad-finally hit the 1:35's the last race weekend there and it was quite crappy that weekend.  Can't comment much on the rain..the second I hit the wet part I fell down lol!

I don't mind the flow of Blackhawk as long as you stay on track. The problem with Blackhawk is that it "flows" right into tire walls and trees everywhere.

It's amazing to me that I hurt myself at BHF while going off in one of the few places that isn't lined by trees/armco/tirewall.  If it wasn't for the damn ruts!   :wah:
