Default Super Bike School Pictures

Hey folks,

I thought I might share some pics of my days at Barber CSS. The knowledge and skills you gain are amazing. It was a fun three days I will never forget. We had five bikes down the three days I was there. One hurt hand and one busted bike. It was fun seeing three of the four so called fastest riders end up in the sand or grass. Not the best lap times for the fastest riders either

Chip, found my lap time report. My best time 1.28.81 on Friday. I am sure I did better on Saturday but was to cheap to pay for the Lap Times on Saturday. Did you smoke me?

I am guessing you are talking the first line in one of your lap time columns. If that's the case, that line is inaccurate. My lowest time is 1:17:86 which would give me the lap time record. HA!

According to Barber Motorsports Park - Trackpedia Mat Mladin owns the lap record for a motorcycle at 1:24.829.

So, look for your best time outside of the first line listed. That number was highly inaccurate.

My best time was 1:54.24 and then some 1:56s.

I was there on saturday on my race bike. What group were you guys in? Yellow or green? I was auditing yellow while trying out for a coaching spot. I was on a red/black s1krr with yellow # plates #777. Who are the fast guys you are referring to?

Nice thread. It’s the perfect reason for me to include some gratuitous pics of me at the VIR CSS last month

There was three groups actually Yella, White n Green. I was in the white.
There was two guys one in a red duc with a pony tail the other I forgot. Saw both bikes slide out after the cork screw. Red Flags for two laps dang. Also one bad low side at the hair pin. Howdja do with the coaching spot.

Nice pics, specially the front shots. Too bad Barber is hard to get around for the photographer no close up fronts for anybody.
