glycol doesn't evaporate, dan. if you spill your 50/50 mix on the track the water evaporates away but the glycol remains and has to be cleaned up.

Another Question: (Suspention) In comparison, how would the riders whom frequent RFR and T-Hill differ thier settings between those tracks? My suspention is set on the hard side for RFR's bumpy nature.

In years past, and this is a tip from zoran, run your bike before you go over the pass. I've heard some people who have their bike in the back of their truck running the engine all the way over the hill. And what would be the reason for this proccess? Fuel injection sensory acclimation? |

Soo... Just to be clear here you can run regular coolant (or engine ice or water wetter) at T-hill on Nov 21. |

Would be neat to see the MPG at idle - or maybe not??? ;D |

My suspention is set on the hard side for RFR's bumpy nature. Your suspension will need to be much stiffer for thill. I set my suspension differently for every track except rfr. At rfr I just run it how it is. I have found that track to be too difficult to even attempt. Plus the settings would be a long way off from other tracks. From thill to miller to infineon I only have to change a couple adjustments one or two clicks. My recommendation: get your suspension set up for thill and just deal with the rough ride at rfr |

I found this trackday on the THill site, hoping that there was one scheduled that I missed.
It looks like the longterm forecast is good. Count me in!
I'll be on the red/black RC51.

I spoke with Steve and he caused[cautioned] running your bike at idle for long periods because the oil pressure is lower and the top end has less oil.
