Mr Brett Baker and team promotion

First time riding with team promotion and all i can say is what a good group of people there. I went down there with 2 friends and met up with Mike B on day 2.

First off the way team promotion handles their business is 1st class. all the people there were very professional and courteous. The members were also the same way. The coaches actually took the time to help you out not just giving you the standard you should do this or that.

Mr Brett Baker is an A+ guy. Funny very FAST extremely knowledgeable and patient. Met him and within the first 2 min you knew he was there to help you with your riding and to make you a better rider no matter what level of riding you are at. Thanks for all your help.

Julie who ended up coaching me couldnt be nicer than she was. She went out of her way to look for me and help me out whenever i needed it. I didnt even have to ask for it. If you are on this forum or read it I couldnt be more thankful. I could go on and on about how good of a rider her and Brett are but i guess thats a given since they are coaches.

Mike thanks for the gifts on sunday you didnt have to do that but it is so much appreciated. Next track day we can do some more riding together.

i for one do plenty of complaining about various things so its a pleasure to write a good this review. Any person looking to ride NJMP and doesnt have a membership i would highly recommend Team Promotion as their club of choice. I have road other clubs but this was my best experience.

Thanks for a great weekend and see you in Pocono in may.

Totally agree Mark. First class all the way.

And no sweat Tee is enroute.

Coach Kevin, Paul and Doc were massively helpful.

Well, guess I can literally say it again to ya Mark - I told you so!!

Known Glenn and TPM for YEARS and they are a super group to ride with and hang with too. Too bad you didnt meet Billy the Lead Instructor and see his abilities too man, cant say I know who Julie is though so must be somewhat new with them - but then again Ive been off the grid for awhile with these old buddies of mine! SV days!

Happy to hear you all had a blast down there and the weather was good for you all as well, which makes things even better! Wait until the days when you ride in TOTAL downpours and then you REALLY learn how much you can trust those tires of yours (Which I am 110% sure they are the Q3s!) LOL.

Wish I was there to watch you guys and hope you used your new little video camera Mark, or did you leave it on the kitchen table again?

I did a track day with Team Promotions back in 2004. I received my race license with them in 04 at Pocono Race way back in the day. Great organization.

Mark, were you in the all white leathers?

My leathers were white black and red. Marc marquez helmet. Was in yellow group day 1 white day 2. I was riding a silver ninja.
PA on may 16 and 17. I bring plenty of food so stop buy for a dog or burger.

Ps did anybody see the new red corvette that was running. Guy was an insane driver.

I did. The stock car sounded ridiculous!

I am at Lightning with Absolute on May 16 & 17 but we'll hook up before season's end!

Thanks for the kind words.It was a great but very busy weekend, and wished I coulod have ridden with all of you more. Avid, you disappeared on me, but I hope we can continue our work in the future.I hope that all of you get out with me again, and paddock close if possible, because a lot is learned in our chairs under the canopy.
Coach Julie is as good as it gets! I asked her to give you a few pointers, and she took you under her wing. Now.......... was it someone here on an R that rode off in the grass coming on to the front straight sunday afternoon? If so, great save at 80 or 90 mph in damp bumpy grass for a good 1/4 mile! There were 4 coaches with our heads twisted around watching hoping you'd save it!
May 9/10/11 whe are at NJMP again, 2 days of Lightning, monday on Thunderbolt. SAt/Sun there is an airshow there with the Thunderbirds, and we are having a hige BBQ. Ride or just hang out, but if near, come on by.

Hers's a little promo vid we did last weekend. Youll see my bald head in the tech garage about :35, my Duc on stands about 1:45 and me waving a rider to pass me (and a group) in a corner while I evaluate him for a bump to the advanced group. Music is by one of our coaches!

See you there if my damn R is here in time.

I'm thinking early-mid may if it ain't here to just pick up an S instead. Really not trying to miss much further into the riding season.

Mark, if you are on FB, go to team promotion sportbike club and give Julie Infurna a shout out, she'd love it. Friend her (and me) while you are at it

If your talking about the last session of the day before the yellow then black flag, that was me lol. The rear brake loved me.

PS - I hope Doc was feeling better.

Lol, NICE save!!!! Must have dirtbike experience
I would have required an underwear change. We were all seriously impressed with you keeping it up and not getting sucked into the tires. Next time we ride we'll discuss the cause of the ride off and how to keep it from happening again, I was right behind you, saw it all.

Yessir. dirtbikes since i was a small kid lol. And thank you I was hoping after art i could meet up with you but Kevin, Doc and Paul kept me on my.toes lol.

Lol, the dirtbike experience showed, both in your save AND the cause, but we'll talk later about that
Just so you know, coach Paul is one of my teammates on the TeamChallenge endurance races on my Pani.
Any of you who were in Red group Saturday may have seen 2 panis laying on their sides with rear wheels still turning in T10. One was mine, the other another member who can chime in if he wants. I'm fine, bike is fine , him and his bike are banged up but fixable. He is a FAST rider. Just saying, sometimes it just happens, even more when you are playing hard, and we were rippin!!!

did you get to watch him though. you could here when he was on and off the gas and he drifted those chicanes. it was impressive.

If you ever do another day with car group, I can get you a ride with one of the fast guys. One of our coaches was probably second fastest out there in a black Vette and was giving rides all day

I didn't. I just felt him move the earth as he came idling past Brett's pit area. I need a stock car!
