If you crash or any part of your bike touches the ground (except for your tires) YOU MUST HAVE YOUR BIKE RE-INSPECTED BY A STAFF MEMBER BEFORE GOING BACK OUT ON THE TRACK. If you have an at-fault crash twice in one day you will not be allowed to ride any more that day. If a staff member approaches you due to erratic lines or to discuss issues with your riding listen to what they are telling you. Any instance of not respecting a staff member will result in you being asked to leave the event.
You should bring the basic tools you need to prep your bike for the track. This includes wrenches, screwdrivers, painter's tape (for covering glass and plastics) and other tools. Keep a close eye on tire air pressure. Too much air or not enough air in a tire can be a disaster! If you aren't sure what pressures to run, go and see the tire vendor at the event. That person will be able to answer almost any tire-related questions you might have.
Stay hydrated! Even in cool weather you will sweat profusely when riding in a leather suit on a racetrack! Keep an eye on your pit area and those around you. Don't leave valuables laying around while you are out riding.
Most of all, ride your ride. Don't fall into the trap of keeping up with a buddy or trying to improve your riding ability too quickly. If your mind or body tells you something listen to it! If you aren't comfortable at any time, come back to your pit, find a staff member, and work out a solution. If something happens on track that makes you uncomfortable let an instructor or staff member know - don't take matters into your own hands.
