Dave is still on his holidays and the final stop is in California. He's got an entry for the AFM club races at Laguna Seca and a borrowed s1000rr to tackle the Famous GP venue.
With no test day, Dave is straight into the action. Will he poo his pants at the Corkscrew? Only one way to find out, join us for the adventure.
Dave also looks around the paddock and gets a close up look at the Light Fighter electric race bike!

Many thanks to Carter's at the Track for letting Dave join their garage, and all their help throughout the weekend

Use to say same thing in MX racing... " if you load ur own bike and drive home it was a good day".......very true regardless of how racing went

1st, I apologize in advance about the lengthy comment. I just came across your channel a day or 2 ago. I've already watched a few your videos like the one at the 2022 Isle of Mann, the 2022 Baja, and now this one. I love your enthusiasm, the knowledge that you share, and the pure joy that you can see on your face when you just get off the track. Especially when you've had a good go around and improved your time. I also wanted to say thank you for your statement about the loss of your friend Davy Morgan at the Isle of Mann, my condolences. I truly appreciated not just what was said but how you said it. You could see your pain and the hurt caused by the loss of a fellow competitor and companion. After you expressed your grief, you could visually see you pick yourself up to convey what was coming next. I was impressed because you portrayed so clearly the gravity of how strongly you felt about what you about to say. You sat up straighter, pulled your soldiers back, your eyes cleared up, and your voice became firmer and more direct as you started talking about the personal choice, understanding of the risk, and ultimately the decision to accept any possible outcome that you and all the other riders make. I think that your whole message was spot on and is the perfect example that should be shared with anybody that feels they need to be some sort of "champion for life crusader" that tries to argue for the cancellation of the Isle of Mann and other similar events. Sir, once again I express my condolences for your loss and I thank you for the work that you put into your content & for the message that you convey with it.....................RIP Davy Morgan & all others that have lost their lives in the pursuit of the perfect line.

woaw DAVE AND CO.,what a great race trip you did there,wasn't expecting such tour after the TT and the manx-classic TT. laguna seca-mazda raceway is really an old school iconic racetrack .every motorcycle racing star has an history with the cork screw ready to screw you if you miss the approach lol.dont know how you did with your bikes VS noise rules,laguna is very srict on this these days. ........your channel is turning into a captivating channel covering very large, considering you guys are born into this NI road racing environnement. your work is truely amazing.

Of all the racetracks in the world, Laguna Seca is near, if not at, the top of my list of dream track days. The exact order of The Ring, Spa, Le Mans and Laguna Seca varies depending on what I'm imagining riding/driving.

Good circuit Laguna Seca though not quite as white knuckle as when the original turn 2 was a left hand kink ( with a very solid bank about 2 feet away ) followed by a straight connecting to the current turn 5. Turns 1 & 2 then were pretty much the quickest in US motorsport. Glad you had a good time Dave. Perhaps try Road Atlanta at some point ?

Hah ! Such a small world. Found your video due to you working on an old Ducati, which I also do right now and then you ride with Dave Thomas and the Carters Crew I see often at track as a San Francisco local. 1:35 for the first visit is very respectable ! Well done mate and glad to see you had a lot of fun :D
