I wish, looks like next time I see Becky will be at CFest in the summer you heading down for that?

Hope a Daytona event comes soon looking forward to that ride.
Unfortunately, I have an event here at home the same weekend as CFest...so can't make it... Hoping that someday one of the two events gets moved off that second weekend of July so I can attend!

I'll keep looking for a Daytona event!

This is neither — a nuisance at worst.
Agreed. I think this will only be an issue with sticky track tires, a bit of a "dirty" track, and high speeds. YMMV.
