Another H-town newb

[the head]

Hi all, another Houston guy here (Clear Lake area). Currently waiting on my HP4 to arrive.

I've been riding a while and used to race in the CMRA in the late 1990s, Y2K. Three championships - one amateur and two expert. Used to instruct at Lone Star Track Days but had to quit that for the same reason as racing (kids).

I've owned a lot of bikes but the HP4 will be replacing a K3 GSXR1000 with KWS stage 2 mods and full Ohlins. Have hit just over 195 mph with the GSXR at the Texas Mile a couple of years ago.

Anyway, looking forward to the new ride and getting time to hit the track days again and possibly endurance race a bit (on another bike). I can't leave anything stock so I'm sure I'll find things to mod the HP4 with (namely power).

Good to be here!

Hero camera video here. It's un-edited so fast forward to the 2:00 mark and then give up after the run unless you like seeing the pit area....

So how many posts before I can reply on the regular forums? I've been digging through the various "rules" and don't see it if there is one.
