Yes. The street group gets some extra instruction prior to the first time out on the track. This year there were only 11 people in the street group and 8 control riders available. At any time during the day you can ask any of the control riders (or any of the advanced riders which ups the control rider number possibility to about 30) to follow, lead or coach so you pretty much have your own instructor whenever you want.

There was so many great riders that took the time to explain things and show us the way around the track. Some that made a big difference to me: RedRider, for1only, Jetbdude (he ALWAYS looks cool ), Kawboy69, bwhip, FrenchieR6, oh yeah, and some SQUID in black leathers on a silver 1KRR ! Thanks to you all, and the many others I have not yet mentioned.

those 2 bikes were a freakin riot. I was dying when DaveF was going down the straight on the 125 slapping the tail like a jockey trying to get it to go faster.
