Originally posted by thetable View PostEven running takeoffs on a liter bike, a rear should last you AT LEAST a weekend. That is unless, you are just spending to win. Then you need a fresh tire for qualifying, and a fresh tire for race. Even then, the fronts will usually last better than that. I've heard several people making it more than 10 races on a front N-Tec. Now the new Power Cups are supposed to be a couple tenths faster, but I haven't heard anything about longevity on them.

KreyAll the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.

I guess this news goes into thread.
An instructor from a MSF type course I attend each spring asked me if I wanted to instruct next year. Going to be interesting.
course for attendees: day1: theory , day2: closed area training ( figure 8 , braking , tight circles, avasive manouver etc ), day3: track day
in addition its a few extra days for the instructors to do their own training.2015 BMW S1000R

well the course is over and it was a blast. Im sure I learned more than I ever did before. Instructing is not a joke, lots and lots of hours of doing a lot of the same stuff and looking more in the mirror than forward. But a lot of fun. Looking forward to next year.

by now I know pretty much all of the regulars at the track and most of the instructors. Yesterday I went there just to photograph as it was the last trackday of the season.
heres what I got https://www.flickr.com/photos/mammut...7646854155238/
walking around the track is not a joke , its a LOT of walking LOL.
using a Nikon D7000 with 17-50mm F2.8 lens which basically is not the lens I should be using but its the best I got a the moment. So it requires a good bit of cropping unfortunately which leads me to pick only a few spots which are near the track.
70-200mm F2.8 with a 2x teleconverter would give me 400mm at f4. but its pricey
anyone got any experience with track photographing ?2015 BMW S1000R
