    Kyle Busch with all his friends! hahaha
    One difference I noticed in this video was that none of the lights and mirrors were taped up :-P

      Ha! From the expressions my guess is the guy wearing the hat is the driver. Yup, making friends.
      I suppose it’s not real obvious, what color is my bike?

      @@merfmoto6378 Well, the one in this video certainly isn't green... So I cannot say with any confidence what color your bike is at this precise moment in time, hah. Is this the same bike? It sounds like a Japanese I-4. That's all I'm certain of. I don't know much about these fancy newfangled fuel-injected motorcycles that seem to be all the rage these days!
      It's funny--I stopped by my parent's house earlier today and watched the end of the XFinity race. I'm a big AJ Allmendinger fan. Anyway, my aunt was asking why it was noteworthy when the announcer mentioned that the camera man was able to find a Kyle Busch "Fan", not "Fans" after he won. She's like, "Do people not like him or something?".
      "Nope. No, people do not like Kyle Busch." - my dad. haha

      @@matttriestodothings Why yes, Matthew, it is a new bike!
      Did you cheer when Kyle spun? I did.
      Was AJ out of tires? I don’t know why he didn’t pit. That cost him the race.

      @@merfmoto6378 I missed most of the race, but texted my buddy that was there--he thought he was out of tires. I saw he won the first two stages and in typical AJ-luck, he got a pit road penalty. Blah! I'll have to rewatch it.
      Isn't it crazy watching that track now that you've ridden it? The elevation changes do NOT translate to TV well at all. It's so much more interesting to watch! The pre-race for the race had a very old lap with Roger Penske in the car narrating a lap from like 50 years ago. I really hope my DVR caught it because I'd love to watch it again. The track is obviously the same, but all of the surrounding area is so different. There are no guard rails or anything between the kink and Canada Corner! it's like literally driving through the woods. And the bridge prior to the carousel literally doesn't exist.
      And yea, I may have just been rewatching your track day video to figure out if you've got a different bike or not, haha. Congrats on the new bike!! Hopefully it's treating you well!

      @@matttriestodothings There have been so many upgrades to the track just in the last 20 years. The tunnel to the paddock for instance. That is cool.
      The cars today just looked slow through the corners to me. Some even went through 1 and 3 two by two. To me that wouldn’t happen at real race speed.
      The new bike is a Zx6r. Yup the cheater 636. No ABS. Figured if I was serious I should use the right tool for the job. Got an M4 muffler, but as it does virtually no muffling that is an oxymoron. I will call it a growler. The biggest performance gain from it is actually the weight reduction. I felt this would be better suited to RA as well as Blackhawk Farms.
      Hey, I also got a safety wire pliers!
