Great stuff. Looks like you had a ball.

Next time you're out there, look through your corners a bit more (check the dude behind you) and you'll be amazed how much smoother you get.

And as for doing shit like that while others are at work, all I have to add is YOU BASTARD!!!!!!!!! :wink:

Cheers

Hey Andi, was that your first time on a track? If it was mate you have done sensationally well. Your a Bee's dick from putting your sliders to use and you'll improve bucket loads when you get used to looking through the corner more.

Yeah, first time. My stomach actually felt sick when we lined up :lol: I'd rather watch races than be in it, thanks... :D

Half of the left slider gone by day's end :D but the right one, ummm nearly fell trying :?. Where in PI is the best to learn putting down the right slider.. I mean 1st corner.. too fast (frightening), Honda.. to tight, MG... downhill ...

Btw. the tip of my boots gone :( cause I only have touring boots (no protection thingy). Already put my toes up. Do you think a "hero knobs" or whatever it is they screw under the pegs will help ?

PI?..right knee down???
Honda is the one to get started on
its constant radius and the right speed to get comfortable
and then
...maybe...MG (lots don't here coz the way the corner is)
but imo, forget Turn1

and your footpegs on the 6 should have hero knobs
underneath..standard! if not, get some!

but guys look at where his eyes are pointing.
does it really matter how far you turn ur head if u still spot the apex and exit?
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
