TTP is still existent. We just converted to an actual race club with a board of directors instead of the old format, which was a business entity.
TTP is now TTRC , which stands for Twisted Track Racing Club.
We have a race date at RFR August 3rd (Saturday) this season. We are running a bracket race format so to speak. Meaning no more engine displacements for categories. We are running a 1,2,3 bracket format, 1 being the fastest time bracket and 3 being the slowest time bracket. What this means is you are gridded with riders of your experience and lap times. So for example if you are running a R6 with a lap time of 2:49 on C course, and you have a rider on a GSXR1000 running a similar lap time, then we grid you in that lap time bracket. This format is now based on rider skills rather than bike cc size.
This club is based off riders who are interested in a bit more of a race format but yet not the full experience of AFM. It basically gets your feet wet for racing. It helps you decide if you would rather do this with our club from time to time or if you would rather commit and go to the AFM. Big Budget difference between the two.
This season we have a 1 day event and it is a race& bbq. We race Saturday and we have the track past 5pm for a bbq for everyone that afternoon. Cost to race this event is $200 dollars.
We will also be holding a $79 dollar track day with an option for lap timers if you desire (cost an additional $20) that Saturday in which any rider can ride. It is an open format, so no A,B or C groups. Open riding from 9am-12pm. That's 3 hours of unlimited riding, which is more than you get during a full 1 day track day. After 12p, riders can feel free to hang out for the races and the bbq. Races begin at 1pm.
