With the hot conditions this afternoon it looked as though Kipp's time would stand for the remainder of the test. However, Pascal Picotte thought differently. With less than an hour to go Picotte rode his Picotte Performance Yamaha YZF-R1 to another new lap record at the motorcycle only facility. Picotte's time of 1:15.444 will stand as the new official Jennings GP lap record."






I run 1:26 on my street R1 with the headlights taped in 3rd gear only. I know I can run quicker when I shift, but I feel comfortable running in 3rd gear only. Call me wierd if you want, but I try to stay in my comfort zone and I dont want to Ball up my bike.


yeah that's more like what i read... but i thought it was 1:15.1 or something... anyways. not like it matters... just sounded cool that race teams were testing at the track you guys ride one.


not balling up your street bike sounds like a good idea to me haha
