From a press release issued by NESBA:
Wyomissing, PA (February 8, 2005)-This year the Northeast Sportbike Association (NESBA) will host 111 track days at premier racetracks across the country. New to the schedule are dates at Autobahn Country Club, Joliet, IL; Calabogie Motorsports Park, Calabogie, ON; and Club Motorsports, Tamworth, NH.
NESBA also initiated a brand new track day–Advanced-only days. The days, specifically for Advanced or expert riders only, are a test bed for other single/double class days in a response to requests by club members for more track time per day. NESBA is starting with three Advanced-only days and if all goes well, will start to incorporate more single/double class dates in late 2005 or 2006. In order to participate in the Advanced-only days, riders must be in NESBA’s Advanced riding class or hold an expert road racing license. Participants get an open track all day long.
