Default Riding Euro GP style track for first time...

My neighbor races a YZ250 and has since he was a kid. He has some friends that won a full day at Eddieville MX track for him and 30 friends. So, we are heading there at 4 in the morning this Saturday. It is a 6.5 mile Euro GP track and sounds like we are in for some epic riding - I'm going to be one zombied out freak by the end of that sweaty day. My adrenaline is already kicking into high gear and we haven't even packed yet. D'oh!!!

Any advice that I shouldn't go without? Especially when it comes to jumping. I've been doing some small stuff and some moderate jumps going down, but haven't spent anytime on big air like a track will inspire. I plan to just take the jumps at what speed feels right, but the scary part is that the adrenaline is already flowing.

I cleaned my air filter. Everything else has been maintained recently.

I plan to bring lots of dry clothes. Gonna get some peel-off's for the goggles.

That's the track in Goldendale, Washington where they are doing one of the WORCS races.
Barleymon, you're going to have a blast!

Man, you guys are just putting me over the top. I already couldn't concentrate, but now all I do is drool and daydream. I will definitely post a weekend summary and make it as colorful as possible. We are taking our video camera, too, so we'll see just how good the wifey is with the cam - if she is good enough I will figure out how to make it available for everybody. I gotta go home now and drink this adrenaline out of my system - a sort of cleansing. It's the only way I will get the work done tonight to prepare for the weekend.
