Track usage is only for enthusiastic population who can afford full riding gear and at least a bike capable of doing triple digit speeds & proper stopping capabilities because no one will ride a bike on an International F-1/ Moto GP approved circuit below the speed limitsOriginally posted by Samarth 619 View Post
well said, keeping the price aside, its a privilege just to let us on an International level track.Originally posted by Satellite.kid View PostBiker of the Year -2013

With just 6 public track days in a YEAR, I doubt how this will be economically viable. A day's session will see around 9-9.5 lacs. For 6 days, this adds up to 54-57lac. I doubt such a small amount would be enough for the upkeep of a F1 standard racetrack. In that amount, they also have to pay the salaries of marshalls / safety car etc.
More track days would ensure better utilization of the facility, profitability and more rubber laid out on the track
. Extra rubber = extra grip for everyone so that can never be bad.
Advice is a form of nostalgia.
Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

Similarly there will be media events every now and then so BIC is actually making decent money out there. Not to forget the profit they recieve from F1 every year.Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.Comment

More rubber laid on the track? AFAIK F1, MotoGp and WSBK hate it when a track has been used for any other purpose. It makes the track dirty. I don't think these bikes and especially cars will be of any help to the track per se. On the other hand a bad crash might damage the track. Something you wouldn't want to happen before a race.Originally posted by antz.bin View PostMore track days would ensure better utilization of the facility, profitability and more rubber laid out on the track.

About the cost, yes it wont keep out all the idiots, but it is a step in the correct direction.Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!

true, the cost for bikers should be less and there should be more trackdays available for public. that way we will have to pay less and have more options for dates and track owner can also earn more.Originally posted by antz.bin View PostWith just 6 public track days in a YEAR, I doubt how this will be economically viable.

i differ on the rubber part though, too less and too much rubber -- both are bad.Comment
