I think it is $499.for both days not sure how much for one.I know it sounds like alot but you would spend that or more for a race weekend & only get about 30 laps.Two track days at mosport & you would get enough track time that your arms could not hold the bars anymore. Probably about 100 laps or better a day.

Mosport is about 4km long with varying elevations,mostly long sweeping turns, with an S bend, hairpin,& very high speeds.(it will scare the hell out of you) This is a world class track that should be experienced.I think the Ducati track day is the end of June. They do three speed levels.(slow medium fast)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm not ready for that yet... I like the short, slow and flat track for now!

Well I think I'm gonna have to make one day for sure.. the word terrifying excites me a little.. walms don't let me be the only one present. How about a day in the slow class?

Actually, a guy like me would be off putting that money towards lessons to be honest.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm not ready for that yet... I like the short, slow and flat track for now! What a load or cr..... You drive harder and faster on those west end road rides. I attended the Ducati weekend events several times in the mid 2000's. In my opinion it was the best club event going. They must be very low on attendance to be allowing other bikes. Brad is correct about the track. There is no comparison to others. Truly word class. Several of the guys have been on the Mosport track on their triples and I don't think its fair to call it scary. I think it's the only track where you can go for top speed if your into pushing top gear all the way. Calibogie has more blind corners and reducing radious corners that can shock you a bit if you didn't see them coming. Mosport lapping is far supeirior to the other tracks and should cost more considering what it is. Sorry to hear that Dave is backing down on the vintage days.

Yes I agree completely Jim....Walms you'd have a blast on Mosport! You can run up Andretti straight as fast as you want in relative safety, just grab some brake and ease into the corner on the first few passes. Drew has some video on YouTube of him on the Mongrel. I don't think he'd ever run any track before let alone Mosport when he did it....he really enjoyed it.

Great video, a tank mounted cam is the way to go! Gotta admit, life is short!
