Lunchtime Riding Tips: Putnam Park

I could be wrong, but I thought they moved the wall back slightly and put something against the wall recently. It was an issue.

Otherwise, let's raise money for some air fence.

 

Believe just last year a fellow rider went over the fence at T10, had haybails for protection so I think the bike hit those, just remember hearing he went airborn over the fence.

 

After watching that I think I need to turn in my race license. Amazing and depressing at the same time. My lord I Am SLOW!

 

Damn! If you'd told me that was being played back at 1.5x speed I'd believe you. :wow:

 

Seeing it in person was awesome. Chimichanga's podium speech was even better

 

1:15 on the starting lap

 

:up:

 

To be more depressed, the 125 lap record is 1:13.0 Some little guy named Jason something or other. When I asked him about it he said it was only a "B" kit RS

 

Look through the Team Chicago youtube vids. There's a better one of some kids names Ben and Jason going at it through T9..

 

who got a 10 bike holeshot like a baus? :up:

 

Well, seeing as it is lunchtime, then why not?

Tip#2: Putnam Turn 9.
Trailbraking into T9 while you are still in a wheelie from T8 is ineffective and crash damage will vary.

Is this some ploy to lower the price of admission into club1199??

 

"Two a day Grey" was the term I coined that day.

 

I remember him. I think it was Jason Peters. He did good on the 125, seems like he kinda dissappeared once he tried the 600's. Not sure, it has been a while..

 

Yeah, I'm fairly familiar with Putnam. I was kinda joking with someone

 

Isn't there new management there?
They did build some garages.

 

I'm going for Concierge level in Club1199

 

Putnam moved the final turn back pretty far last time I was there.
