Aruz, I think you are asking about using the RFR track outside of this trackday? If that's your question then I believe that you need a DMV license with motorcycle endorsement, and a track permit (or a racing license like one from the AFM). The track issues the track permit after you take a short riders school with them. I had a track permit at one time, but it was only good for one year.

Silly question but in order to use the track what it is required to have? DMV license with motorcycle endorsement, a track permit or a track experience certification of some sort?

Actually is just for this trackday or for these kind of events organized by the SSA for that matter.

If your asking for the SSA trackday, the only thing you need is medical insurance. Other than that, nothing is required.....except for gear and things of that sort that are listed

I'll ask my girlfriend if I'm allowed to have them for the day...

No track day provider requires it but it's a really good idea to have a fire extinguisher. At one RFR event I watched a trailer full of bikes burn to the ground, almost taking the tow vehicle with it.

russtman

Thats a very, very good idea Erik.    I put that on my list to through in the trailer.

Thanks  8)

i hope this thread still applies for junes trackday. but i was wondering if there was anything wrong with riding with a camera (on a mount ofcourse) and if there is anything special i would need to do. thanks in advance!

Ditto Russell. The nice part about these track days that the club is putting on. Is they are ours. As long as it's safe we can do what we want. So yes mount it up and enjoy. I'm just so happy to see all the members excited about the Track. We can even ride 2 up if we want. Of course Kye wants to ride 2 up with the passenger facing backwards. I don't think we can do that. But it would make a funny picture.

the adjustment bolts are all peened. the only that that could come lose is the camera mounting screw so i couldt safetywire that.

You should be fine. As long as everything is tight and looks like it's not cheesy. (which from your pic, it definitely don't look cheesy)
