Default Jason DiSalvo at JenningsGP

Yesterday, I went for a track day at JenningsGP. We had a good turnout, about 80 - 90 bikes showed up for the day. Also, there was one special M4 EMGO Suzuki being piloted by Jason Disalvo.

A bunch from another forum was down there. Got some action pics of DiSalvo. Looks like a good time

I was wondering where Disalvo would end up after Yamaha...Aparrently Team Amish already had contracted riders and Gnome Industries will sit out in 09?

On a Suzuki, huh? Desperate for a contact. He was at LVMS not too long ago cranking out some sick numbers. About 11 seconds faster than me.

Using my chronograph watch, I clocked him running laps from 1'17" to 1'21" running sessions with the expert group

Geoff May holds the record at 1'14"...also on a M4 Suzuki. DiSalvo was going to try for the record today if the weather stayed cool and dry

I am guessing he was just feeling out the bike.

17's are respectable but 21's are way off the pace. I rode Jennings when Josh Hayes was there and he was ticking off consistent 17's after a few laps.

Speaking of Geoff May, Jeff Wood just broke his record at Homestead a few weeks ago. It was a fun race to watch.

It's to bad that he got dropped off the factory Yamaha ride so quickly. He was one of the faster guys behind the Suzuki's.
