I just wish there were a NESBA participating track closer to me. Closest would be Barber in Alabama, but that is still 8-10 hours away.

We have some riders up here trying to hit NOLA this year.... I ride with a bunch of track addicts... don't know how they afford it, like once or twice a month at $200 something a po, plus all the maintenance

tires only last one or two track days usually...

What a good opportunity to compare how the bikes handle on track.
I presume they will be looking for potential buyers from the dealerships nearby mainly. Hopefully the tracks will be open all day long and everyone attending gets a couple of laps at least on each bike. I wonder if anything would "blow my mind" compared to the FZ6R ? or perhaps the FZ6R is not that far off in alot of areas ?

I suppose the R1 does put at least double the horsepower at the rear wheel. I wonder if the R6 would have a similar wow factor in the handling department ? How does the extra weight of the FZ1 handle compared to the FZ6R ? does it lose anything ?

I'm sure I'd love working the extra torque off the corners for the litre-bikes.
