It's great to see someone transparent. It would be great to see your trailer setup.

@FloridaMotoTalk 5 месяцев назад

Everyone is always so secretive about the costs, but it's good info to get out. I'll knock out the trailer video here soon! Thanks!

Trailer vid is up, better late than never!

I feel your pain! i never keep track when i go racing for the weekend

@FloridaMotoTalk 4 месяца назад

I didn't keep track of anything until we started making these videos.. The pain is so real now ha

Really good video with the insights. The old racing proverb that "in order to make a little money in racing you need to start with a lot of money," still applies It's been a while since I raced WERA but purchasing a transponder paid off in the long run, it's unfortunate that it's a high upfront cost. Do the non-subscription models still work with WERA?

@FloridaMotoTalk 3 месяца назад

Thanks for the feedback. I should probably go ahead and invest in my own transponder as well. I'm pretty sure you must have the subscription to run them at this point.

If someone in the future views this and the cost scares you. Do the following get a smaller bike to race R3 for example. The tires will last longer and there also cheaper. Secondly start or join an endurance team. Endurance racing per lap cost is the best bang for your buck.

@FloridaMotoTalk 4 месяца назад

Great advice! Thanks for sharing.

@popdatclutch3010 4 месяца назад

This is probably why the r7 is so popular too

The bike

@adensmith8553 4 месяца назад

Might consider supermoto. I road raced for years. The tires are a big expense. Moto slicks last about three rounds. Four races per round. 330 to 500 a set. Might have some tracks closer, too

@FloridaMotoTalk 4 месяца назад

Supermoto is a solid option (dirt bikes too), tire costs are by far the most expensive part of the sport over time. I will never, ever, ever, add up everything I've spent on tires.

@jbohler 5 месяцев назад

no beer? Interested in your trailer set up. Find a buddy split the costs of travel saves a lot.

@FloridaMotoTalk 5 месяцев назад

Can't afford such luxuries as beer haha! Splitting the travel costs would certainly help, I'll consider that for the next round.

Not to hi jinx this comment. But I got a good video of trailer setup/sleeper ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xJbiMoBHlVk.htmlsi=PqTq49z7ACWMcfFN

@jeffo_511 5 месяцев назад

Ya. Def hurts adding it all up. Helps once you get little faster and maybe get some tire support or even just support/discounts on parts.

@FloridaMotoTalk 5 месяцев назад

Anything will help at this point, that's certainly the next step.

I always wanted to road race.i used to be a canyon carver...then i grew up.with traffic and distracted drivers i have no interest to even ride on the road any longer. I sold my bike.06 gsxr750.with work who has time to even do a track day.

@FloridaMotoTalk 4 месяца назад

I feel that! I gave up street riding a couple years ago after many close calls. The track is a safer and controlled environment, and if the worst does happen there is medical staff and an ambulance minutes away. Find some time (and another bike) then get after racing, you'll love it!

@davejohnson607 4 месяца назад

👍.I used to live less than 30 min.from sonoma raceway in no.cal.but moved to Colorado I don't think there is even a track close .
