You look unreal on this track man, I ride a daytona 675, done a few track days at QR and MP, headed Lakeside for first time on the 19th :) looks like a bit of a step up in difficulty.

[@KR4Z3D666]

Awesome shit bro! I have an 06 GSXR600 track sled. Done 3 track days at Lakeside, been riding a year and cracked out a few 1:12's yesterday :D Crazy that you're doing 1:05 and it looks so smooth!

[@bradwyvill6478]

That's Awesome mate! And the perfect bike for lakeside! Were you in green group? Just keep tapping away bit by bit slow and steady and watch those lap times drop :) I was there on the weekend aswell haha. Was a perfect day for it! I got down to 1:02's ! Was pretty damn happy with that, ill have to make a new video next time I go out :D

@@bradwyvill6478 nah I was still in red group rofl 2nd time riding the bike so wasn't super comfortable with it. Will be going blue group on the 29th though.

[@bradwyvill6478]

@@KR4Z3D666 Honestly, doing 1:12's I wouldn't be surprised if you end up moving yourself to blue group by the end of the day! But that's unreal for your second time riding it! Bloody solid effort. I'll see you out there on the 29th 👌

@@bradwyvill6478 I'm booked in blue group, should be a bit more space to open up

[@toniolll]

How were the r11 tyres? Wanting to get some for the street

[@nickfordham8508]

Thats sick dude. Im yet to do a track day but dont know where to start. Any tips

[@bradwyvill6478]

No real tips hey, just go out in the lower groups initially, learn the track and have fun mate that's what its all about! Best place to go to enjoy riding without all the cops hanging from trees with radars, and random shit on the roads, much more controlled environment! And as you get more confident and learn your lines the speed comes. Plus you meet alot of people and make some mates during it. Warning though its very addictive! After your first day you will probably find yourself buying tyre warmers ect haha

[@SuperAdventureR1301]

@@bradwyvill6478 Do these lower groups allow riders to simply go out and ride at their own pace? Or do you need to be keeping up with a certain time limit. I'd love to do a track day, but i have zero interest in actually racing other riders, i just want a place to open the throttle without fear of a speeding ticket.

@@SuperAdventureR1301 you're exactly right if you're a tad bit slower, people are allowed to safely overtake you on the straights, so there's no pressure
