I was asked (I think it was by @whatislifebro) if I could make a long form video. I wasn't sure what to make it of other than a typical full day at the track.
Before I get into the details of my day I want to say thanks to @fuchslubricantsthailand2031 for letting me try out their premium #Silkolene motor oil for my Yamaha R3. The oil was changed after my 2nd session and I noticed that the motor was smoother and there seemed to be less vibration in hte afternoon.
A few things about this day. This happened to be a day that they changed the track layout at MSP (Motor Sports Park Suwannabhum). They change the track maybe 5 times a year so it was good timing. Since it was a new layout it showed how I was able to improved during the day. It's very clear if you watch the first session and then jump to about 15 minutes into the video.
Also, today I fell twice. It not unusual for me to a one fall every week or two, but two in one day is. After the second fall my Dad said I need to take my head out of my butt or we were going home. He was upset because he always tells me to take it easy the first session because the track might change from the last time (today, even if the layout hadn't changed there was heavy rain the day before that got sand on the track) and also the track layout. He said in the morning you need to always make sure the bike is OK and the body needs to warm up the first session. Also he told me to end the session but I decided on one more lap soooooo there's that :(
The second fall was me trying to use the throttle all the way through a left turn before the long right 260 turn after the straight. My Dad said, good idea but bad place to do that since I immediately need to do a left-right direction change. Both falls were lowsides and long, sliding lowsides at that. My Dad always asks if I'm ok and even though I could tell he was angry I know why he gets on me the way he does sometimes.
After motorcycle practice I ride my bike. The bicycle ride was cut short on this day. Usually I do 2 laps on a large bike lane that goes around the BKK Airport, but it's the rain season in Thailand so today I only got one lap in. It was raining very hard on another part of the bike lane and when it rains it usually dumps down the rain.
That is how most days at the track go. I leave by 8am and usually get home around 7:30 unless it rains. Hope you enjoy the video. If you do or want to see different longer form videos let me know. Oh, and sorry for some of the choppy video. During the day it was very hot (about 36) and my Dad said the camera couldn't handle recording the videos in the heat.
