I went to NC this weekend to practice and had a blast but do riders even have track etiquette anymore. Almost was the guy on the bad side multiple times to people being completely stupid. Got dudes pulling off the track going straight after a jump when it turns left almost got me 3-4 times. Then people looking over their shoulder and swerving into me and where I was passing them instead of looking ahead and focusing on their riding. Then vet guys getting cross rutted and almost destroying me twice cause they skipped 5 ruts to almost hit me. I was told to race and ride ahead and to always hold my line I don’t get what’s so hard about that. I was getting pretty frustrated with people because it just makes a practice day more dangerous than it already is

Didn’t make it to 421 but went to East bend both days had a ton of fun just lots of people making really stupid choices and almost costing me by running into me and cutting the track and getting on and off in bad spots. I honestly have never had so many people getting on and off the track and looking everywhere but straight until this weekend by far was the worse. I just don’t get why they are doing it
 
There is no track etiquette anymore. I do feel that its worse when riding down south. Lot of yahoos out there.
 
Welp, heres a practice danger. Cold hands and arm pump. Dakota learned this yesterday. Shes handled it like a champ and even contemplated riding the next session.. Thumb.. im sure georgie knows the technical term lol..

Sounds about right. Not jumping everything and people thinking they are all hero’s when you approach them to blow by them too lol. Sometimes I pull off after practice and just wonder wtf happened out there.

It was packed. And east bend is such a tight track in lay out and lane with in a few spots which makes it even more packed.

Layout is fun I was looking at the track on Sunday morning figuring out how you could change the layout to be more open and not tight and got a pretty good idea

That straight before the over under is tight and just seemed off, same with the corner after the big table/double on the back lane. Just needs a little re working to get it better.
