Default A giant among mini's

I took the motard down to Elgin SC to the Palmetto supertrack to ride with the mini moto's for the day.

Baby steps before putting the tard on VIR Patriot or CMP

I got there just before noon and it was basically deserted….unloaded and was told as soon as the EMT arrived I could have at it.

No tech inspection..no nuthin

Whoo hoo!

EMT came and I headed out. Small track….but still fun. Top speed MAY have been 60….I got to 53 on the front as the radar set up by a mini rider said. But I was alone for the first hour…then a few mini’s showed up to mix with me.

Rode for 4 hours (most of it alone) but had a freakin blast...the wife and pup came too...they were both under the EZ-up crashed out

Best $45 I’ve spent in a while!

Sounds like fun.

We have a place like that in Miami.

$35, run what you brung. No tech, no EMT's, nothing.

If it gets busy they'll split up big bikes and mini's.

Otherwise it is an open track all night.

Now that's a good deal !! I've never been there.

A guy at work takes his Porsche down there somewhere and races it some in a club that he belongs to.

Oops...nevermind...he just walked by and said it's Carolinas Motorsports Park in Kershaw, SC that he goes to.
