I'm signed up to take the Level 1 school at Mid-Ohio on 8/4. This will be my first time riding at a track and I'm planning on bringing my own bike. I was wondering what kind of prep (set-up) I need to do to my bike ahead of time. I don't mean set-up in terms of suspension or anything, but things like removing mirrors, taping off head lights and tail lights, safety wiring oil filter etc...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Also, I was wondering other opinions on bringing your own bike. My main motivation was to keep the cost down, and I also thought it would be nice to learn more about the limits of my own machine. On the other hand, I'm wondering how much the track riding for the level 1 session will burn up my tires. The cost of tires, in addition to the risk of doing some damage to my bike might outweigh the extra $200.
