    Power goes quick but if you get there for Friday it should be available… Weather should be good for no Genny needed at night..

    Reminder that pre entry closes at midnight tonight! So far the wether guessers are saying it'll be flat out gorgeous.

    I just got my temporary novice license after doing a race school in December but did not get my bike ready in time for Tally this weekend but plan to race several times this year if I can. Since I have not been racing in many years, I would like to attend the race at a minimum and if possible follow around a HW twins or Formula racer on Saturday or Sunday to see how it is supposed to go before I show up clueless at a race. Is that possible or wishful thinking?

    I'm confused - your bike is ready for practice but not racing? You can absolutely come hang out.

    Never knew anything was wrong with it - or are you talking about the grinding done in the bowl? If so it wasn't unrideable last time and has been improved more since then.

    I did not need it race ready for the race school I attended, just track day prep'ed.... I still need to work on my belly pan, number plates, steering damper... none of which is easy since I am attempting to take an Indian FTR1200 to the track to race...

    Just curious…….is there Friday registration and tech? And is there a time cutoff getting in/out of the main gate? Thanks!!

    No on Friday stuff, all the officials are working and then traveling just like you guys. Gate closes at 10pm and reopens at 6:30am (might be 6am).

    Ahhh, sorry to say it'd have to be race ready to get on track even for practice for our days. Not sure on the requirements if you want to do the STT day tomorrow.

    Last September, T2 was decidedly slippery when dry except right at the bottom.
