    Looks like fun!

    PPIR isn't my favorite track, but it is fun.

    Yeah, I'd like to go to High Plains, but they won't let me on until I get an aftermarket roll bar, which is $1200 plus install.

    That's one advantage to 2 wheels.

    Change out the coolant for non-glycol coolant, unplug the lights, put on some safety gear, and off you go!

    Nice...

    If only it were that easy.

    Why do you have to unplug the lights?

    Fair. YT has a wealth of good info. That guys vids are pretty good.

    I have been told that it is to eliminate distractions on the track. No headlights and no brake/tail lights, so that people are paying attention to what the other riders are doing, not what their lights indicate (brake lights without actually braking being a prime example).

    Beyond that, because the Safety Tech guys say I have to...

    That was going to be my guess, especially the braking part.
