To the whole PSSR gang,

Many years ago before my first child was born (21+ years) I did some club racing on my 1984 Kawasaki Ninja 900 and recall it being “the most fun a guy (or gal) could have with his/her clothes on”. Becoming a parent made me realize my mortality so I “hung up the leathers” and spent my racing budget on baby stuff. I continued riding the 900 on the street for many years. Now, with my youngest at 14 years and a newer bike (a 2005 Kawasaki ZX12R) I finally was willing and able to get back on the track and really ride this newer machine the way it was intended to be ridden. Today, the day after I feel 20 years younger (with the exception of my arms being a bit sore) and am happy to report it is still “the most fun a guy (or gal) could have with his/her clothes on”. Despite the money spent, even my wife had a lot of fun watching and suggested I do it again next year. Who am I to say no? I had such a blast yesterday that I felt compelled to write this e-mail to say thanks to the whole PSSR team for a beyond fun track day experience at PIR. The team was very helpful with my getting back on the track and the whole event met all of my expectations. Please deliver a special thanks to Naomi and Mike who were the instructors that I worked with yesterday.

Again, many thanks to all who put this on.

My Testimonial Goes Something Like This...

At age 60+ my son gave me my first track day and I really enjoyed it. I liked the way first time track day riders were /*eased*/ into the experience. I was soon feeling comfortable riding my own pace with as much tutoring as you wanted. I plan to do it again.

How I took 10 seconds off my lap times...

granted, I had room to shave but...

At PSSR yesterday I managed, in one day, to shave 10 seconds off my lap times. From low 1:30s at my last novice race to 1:19-20!! Holy crap, how did that happen??? I had one on one instruction the entire day, I was schooled on race craft by knowledgeable racers and ex-racers. They worked with me on my race lines, worked some more advanced cornering technique to give me an edge and offered me play by play feedback after each session. Not that I need to sing the virtues of PSSR (and at the risk of sounding like a commercial), but I have never come close to that kind of improvement in one day and I wanted to thank everyone who got me here!!! PSSR rawks! Al, Dan, Tom and Janice, thank you so much for providing such a wonderful trackday experience. You guys are a powerhouse!! Dustin and Mark, of course....forever indebted! I would encourage anyone seeking the same results to contact me or PSSR and we'll get ya set up. Any newbies looking to improve on other levels, do the same...best money ever spent.

See ya'll at the races (oh...and I'll be coming up much faster than before )

Great work, all.

WOW! What an amazing trip, I'm having withdrawal symptoms already... That track is absolutely phenominal. For those of you who have ridden no other track besides PIR, you are really missing out! Fast corners, high rises of track that disappear into blue sky, technical late apexes....can't wait til next time.

Big thanks to my PSSR family, you guys are the best in the biz and I never thought I could learn so much in such a short period of time! Your school has changed my life and improved my riding skills beyond belief...I'm gonna miss you guys..see ya next year!

Thank you all so much for such an incredibly fun time. Al said it best -"This girl is such a speed junkie". I can never get enough of those 2-up rides...Big, big thanks to Al, Tom and Dan....and Naomi too...what a real treat it was to take your CBR out for a few laps for my 1st time at Thunderhill- what a great technical track ! I am so grateful. It really was one of the best things that has happened to me in such a long time...no expectations can really change ones attitude. I didn't expect to have soo much fun. I will be smiling for the next months and months.....those memories will live forever in me and only make me smile more. PSSR is the best ever!

Much thanks...see you all again soon...

Why PSSR trackdays rock...

I am not going to speak badly about any of the "other" trackday organizers, I mostly want to give praise to the PSSR guys. I'm on my third one so far and I have been nothing but impressed by their operation.

First off, it's the organization.. They run a very tight ship. Everyone knows what their job is and they all take it seriously. Things happen on time and they keep it moving along all day. Even the luch is well organized. I saw them saving cookies especially for the C-Group riders.

Secondly, is the environment they create. They really make you feel comfortable when you're out at the track. They aren't all pitted under their special tent with only their "elite" customers, leaving every one else feeling like second class citizens. They are out there mixing it up and having a good time with eveyone else all day long.

Thirdly, it's the instructors. They are are a great group of guys. They will help you out in almost any way they can. They give a lot of attention to the new riders and are especially accomodating for the slower riders. At the last two trackdays I attended they were leading a harley rider around the track all morning.

And fourthly, they are just a bunch of fun, down-to-earth guys who are doing something they love. It shows!

I'd recommend their trackdays to anyone. Spokane is coming up next... Up to 3 days of riding on the track. It should be a blast. I'm there.

From: George Mulligan

Truly a great learning experience; thanx to you .Keith, Dan, Scott, Dave, and the very tall, very very slender younger guy( name escapes me). See you guys soon .

From: Tom

I learned more in that one day than I ever thought possible.

From: Rachel-the fire fighter

...did Seattle with Reg Pridmore and like PSSR much better.

From: email

...it's such a nice atmosphere at the PSSR days and everybody helps you. And I really see that a Track Day helps with the riding skills (although I'm aweful slow), but it's about learning!.

From: Dale Johnson

The PSSR experience, support and camaraderie among the senior racers more than anything helped push me toward my decision to start racing. TJ, Bill Cismar, Alan, Tom, David Salmi, were all patient with the millions of questions and offered tons of information to us wannabes.

All those guys were great leaders. They help give a great impression to the organization. I'm really looking forward to Thunderhill, and the new season which won't come fast enough...

From: Jim Tremblay

I just wanted to thank You, Dan, Al, Tom and all the people responsible for providing two excellent track days. Thunderhill was without a doubt the best track event that I have had the pleasure of attending. Your organization is professional, efficient and welcoming. The quality and quantity of track time was great, and what a venue!

And if that isn't enough, three hot laps on the back of Oliver's bike sure won't be forgotten.

There is just one suggestion. The tech stickers should be printed on the same sticker stock as the number plates. The current tech stickers sure are hard to remove without solvents.

Thanks again and I'll see you next year for another great trip to Thunderhill as well as other tracks.

From: Mark Davey

On behalf of our Canadian clan, thank's so much again for all the hard work you folks have done this year . We really enjoy the events, this year was awesome !!!!!

I'll have to get to T. Hill next year. Looking forward to '07 !!

Take good care. from all B.C.S.R.A. members.

From: Paul & Carel Marbry

Thanks for the help on track day. We enjoyed it thoroughly. It was Carels first track experience and my second and we are looking forward to next year. The organization was great the instructors were very helpful and the atmosphere professional and safe. We hope it was a success for PSSR and everyone made it home safely. See you in 2007.
