about how much do trackdays run syn?? and what is required like full suit, and what kinds of prerequisites are there? or is it worth just having a cheap track weapon?

SMMR (pahrump track) runs about 195/day depending on provider.
LVMS is about the same. Although on the 17-18th you can run both days for 300 or 165 for one day.


One providers requirements.. Fastrack (http://www.fastrackriders.com/faq.html#8)

It would be nice to have a dedicated track bike, but I do enjoy taking my baby out there and let her do what she was born to do.
