hello, as the title says, i just got back from the track here in southerne cali and i was very suprised how many FZR's were out their dressed up in all their race fairings, all though only 3 of them were 600's and 5 of them were 400's i was their for about 5-6 hours and man does that look like alot of fun, although i did witness a few crashes today the last one i seen happend to be an FZR no real bad wrecks thankfully, but that was my first time out at the track, looks like a very fun road course
sorry i didn't get any pictures of the FZR's I ment to but my phone dies therefore I had no camera
I'm pretty sure i'll be going back out next weekend and ill snap some pics, everyone their that i spoke with are regulars... their was even a 13 year old kid riding an 06' R6... Crazy stuff

Was this racing or a Track Day?
Thanks for joining and participating in the most "active" FZR Community on the internet!

Re: spectated at willow springs race track
They have vintage racing the third sunday of each month if I recall correct. I used to be up there a lot since it's 30 minutes from the in laws (where I keep the 1k). I haven't had the chance this year to go though. Would not surprise me if FZRBrandon was there and on the track.

Re: spectated at willow springs race track
Yep, Willow Springs Motorcycle Club held their races this Sunday. I was planning to go up with FZRBrandon, but had to make some progress on my FZR4 YZF motor swap. Wonder who crashed.
FZR400 (1WG): Purchased a perfectly good FZR400 with Yoshimura slip-on/EXUP, Yosh jet kit, Factory ignition advance, Racetech springs and emulators. It even had great bodywork. Like some diseased maniac I had to mess with everything good about that bike. Well, at least I have better brakes now.
FZR400RR (3TJ):Yeah, it's pink.

I know the guy on the blue /white. Just confirmed that it was him this morning. He is a member, but I'll let him chime in if he chooses.

Re: spectated at willow springs race track
Yep, I was there with my wife and daughter (up at the Budweiser balcony where we usually hang out). Unfortunately, I wasn't on the track. I crashed the track bike back in April and am still (yes, still) trying to get it back together. Besides that, I'm trying to find a different frame for it because I'd like to keep the nice frame for a street build.sweekster wrote:Would not surprise me if FZRBrandon was there and on the track.
Anyway, yeah, WSMC has racing of all classes (not just vintage) every third Sunday of the month from January through November.
