North Florida Track Day dec 29th

[Madmike]

Im back, Im alive, and the bike was rolled out of the trailer in one piece. Another beatiful day at NFMP. I wanted to add that Julian now has quite a few paddocks cemented in and the paddock area is also half cemented. Plans are in place to add more cement and paddock areas for the riders. Its starting to shape up nicely and looks like its gonna be a great spot for schools and clubs. Julian added a rider/racer school to the lineup ( Martinelli racing ) and with the other big schools grabing dates it will be a good year. Also I hope to see dog-ears paint makers and brake markers in soon... plenty of run off room but when up to speed its tuff to tell where the track ends and the soft stuff begins.... i guess it will be a work in progress for now. More info to come im still working on getting some data on the track and some elev. and corner figures. For now i leave you with a smile.
Cheers
Mike

Is that a fence on the outside of the track in the first picture?!?!?

Im pretty sure that im setting up for turn 10 and that he caught the fence and rider in the background. there is a fence around the whole property , but its no where near any of the impact zones or heavy run off areas. Its in the middle of a large wildlife area and if the area was not fenced off and large dune style noise reductions put in we would have a ton off angry neighbors and wild life on the track....i have not seen any real danger zones unless you run the track CW and then the fence and pit wall become a problem coming out of the last turn.

I think he's talking about the little white poles at the edge of the track. They could be far away but they look really close. Are the PVC or something?

Its a fence, but its not that close and it continues off away from the track. The picture gives a funny optical illusion as to where it is. It took me a while to figure out what corner that was and where the fence was. ( Pro. Photographer )My fiancees pictures i knew right where she was. So i had to pull some of those up to get a solid bearing.... hope that helps
