Posted last Fall about getting ready for 2022. Did my part, ready to relay race. If someone is looking for a rider let me know. Craig
Post # 2. I'm hoping to jump in on a team this. So ... @Craito , I almost had a 3-person, relay team formed last year (both mates dropped out). Count me in if you're interested. I'm game for even a 2-person team.
I plan to race Roebling Road next weekend if weather permits. If anyone interested in endurance racing is there and wants to meet feel free to say hello to a guy on a 2018 Aprilia Tuono sporting #96. And since my wife can't make the trip I'll happily make new friends, especially when its always possible the untoward should happen. You never know!
Chose to stay home vice drive 561 miles to ride in the Roebling Road rain. That said, will look for trackdays between now and the June endurance race. Thinking Pittsburgh with N2, 23-24 April Still hoping I can find some folks willing to race
Get this, a couple weeks ago a tree went through my roof, which sucks, but we're working through it. Still up for endurance racing this year. My Aprilia is ready for inspection for relay racing or if someone needs an old expert rider for their team.... let me know. In Virginia.
@Mongo is there a link to team registrations for the endurance races that shows the name of the team members for each team? I like to follow along on race monitor live timing when I'm sitting at home (like now for example) and would be curious to know who's on which team.
I can do a media list that will have everything the teams have given us, I'll see about posting it here. Double checking the 4 hours grid stuff now so it'll be a few.
Craito, I'm curious what you are using for a belly pan for the Tuono? I used my 2020 Tuono factory for the race school this past Friday at Roebling and would be interested in possibly racing that thing.
F3, From this company in Italy but I don't see our year: https://www.cruciata.com/english.asp Mine is fiberglass in a carbon wrap. And its still waiting for a race team. I'm the kid who never gets picked!
Found it thanks! https://www.cruciata.com/en/prodotti.asp?keyprodotto=152 If we need another rider for our next endurance race I'll let you know!
Any of you guys interested in another party for Barber in October? I normally race an R3 but have a 2020 Tuono I can race prep for the relay. I have little experience on a big bike so I won't be fast, I just want to try out endurance racing.
For the couple track days I've done on it, it is a great feeling bike. I'm a huge noob but even I could feel and understand what the bike was doing through the chassis. Plus the power is mind blowing, and it still makes 40 less than the RSV4.
Absolutely. I usually can pull RSV4's out of the corners but then they just fly on by around the 140mph range. Still the most powerful bike I've owned. I have the Factory so it came with the 200/55 rear. I went to the Pirelli SC3 200/60 and it made a big difference.
