Som epeople he will sit down for a session or 2 after a crash and if you crash twice youre done for the day. He did sit down a few people and sent a few home for rule infractions.

I was very happy with the organization and how things were run. other orgs will make threats and yell at you but never act on it, so it was nice to see this so guys may be a little smarter about their riding and may keep some of the squiddly people away. NYC is squid central and some are making it out on the track with certain orgs where the rules are a bit more lax.

I see. That makes sense. Is the guy a total hard ass or was he cool?

hes actualy very cool, when he called the second riders meeting I figured we were getting yelled at but he didnt, kinda talked to us to identify the problems and try to fix it. hes prety open about stuff and takes a lot of the participants feedback seriously to help improve the day.

I was very impressed with the day despite the crashes and told him so at the end of the day and that he will see me a lot more next year.

What org ran the day?

[tommymac]

Absolute cycles, its a smaller org out of the NY/NJ area but has been growing quite a bit the last 2 yeaars. I hope they expand their schedule to include more days next year and at other tracks.

Nice. Might have to look into them if I can make a track day next year.
