Default Another Track Day

Today I wasn't the participant but my friend Paul was.

While we were in the infield I got a close up look at a bunch of bikes waiting/being prepared to race. This race was at New Hampshire International Speedway (Nascar Races here). The stands cicle a huge oval circuit but the motorcycle circuit runs off the loop and has a bunch of nasty turns you can only dream of finding on the normal street. I put in a few pics for you guys to see.

P.S. If anyone knows how to link videos from my PC let me know; I have a handful of videos also.

Nice. What do they charge for a day, and is it a course or just open to the public?

You need to have them in something like a windows media viewer WMV. or quicktime format then go to a hosting site and upload them, after it's uploaded they will give you a link that you can post up for evrybody to see it

http://media.supload.com/ i've used this one, works OK for a free site but if it's larger than 20mb you'll have to go to this one below


http://www.megaupload.com/ it's also free but it loads a little slow they will take up to 250mb but it will take 1hr+ to load something that large
