Daytona Pitt Setting Up

[yetidave]

I'm #277 (yellow plates) new GSXR 750. My leathers have team promotion all over them and "yeti" across the ass.

DID YOU SAY STEAK???

And beer. Find my trailer and there'll be a steak a few beers waiting for you. I'm dying to hear all about.....well you know.

I'm #277 (yellow plates) new GSXR 750. My leathers have team promotion all over them and "yeti" across the ass.

I should be #511 white plates - Lightweight rider.  (The bike...not my Shamu sized ass.)  Again...watch the lightweights...if you see an 800 pound gorilla in black leathers (Keener on the back) manhandling a bike around...I would be the gorilla.  :-)

Mmmm...steak.  Fits right in with my current diet!!!

going to Daytona for the first time.
I'm renting an open air garage. Will I be able to park my truck next to it?
Will I be able to use the tunnel to the paddock area during race? I'm thinking about arriving on Friday afternoon.

I'll be racing a Guzzi V11 for the first time (the Duc is staying home...).
Anybody doing AHRMA race on Mon & Tue?

No vehicles in the paddock area.  You willhave to park them out near the international horseshoe area ad hoof it in.  Bring a cart of some sort...you WILL end up hauling something eventually.  Daytona is large...expect to walk a lot.  (Or bring a motorized pitbike - without a license plate.)

The old tunnel should be open.  Fits a car/pickup fine.  I don't think the big tunnel will be open durng track time.  (Can't remember...since I  have only been there once for the new configuration.)

And have you actually looked at the schedule?  If you haven't been there...and they run the new configuration..then I recommend taking the Team Hammer racer's practice.   The practice schedle has cut down on the amount of practice time available.  I might end up doing the Team Challenge just from more track time.

Thanks for the info.
yeah, I know... little reckless plan but can't take too many days off from work since I'll be doing AHRMA race as well.

Planing to bring a pit-bike & street bike to wonder around in the town.

[MudDawg]

I usually make it into town once or twice.  But with being up at 5:30 daily...not much energy for doing anything past 9pm.  I'm just old and slow.
