Thanks....but it's a waste of my time and would prob only confuse some....the CSS coaches have a clear process and way of delivering it. -

i'll be bowing out of these conversations going forward. Too cliquey. Also too "green" Good luck to all of you! Listen to the coaches!!! -

Are you the soft of hard type?
Spinto replied to faffi's topic in School Questions/General Discussion
i get the same race feel from the Ntechs.....if you can't trust your tires....or feel them....you won't go as fast. Sport touring tires....pilot road 5s.....what are is your race bike? street ride? -
Why Are We Weighting The Outside Peg?
Spinto replied to gogogusgus's topic in Cornering and Techniques
Back to the topic Heading..."Why Are We Weighting The Outside Peg? i use that technique when racing. I use it to accelerate sooner and/or when i change my line. -

hope so.....BArber is a great track. Offers alot for rider training. Elevations, blind corners-ish....great surface too -

ok...just watched this....i wasn't wrong. Terminology is different...how others describe it will be different....not here to argue semantics. -

i 'm reading these posts and i don't know who's speaking. Are you a racer?motorcycle, car?? how much "time in the seat".....not just track days but racing? What real experience do you have and for how long? Without knowing...it's all conjecture. -

thanks Cobie.....my opinions are for track riding.....i wouldn't go that deep into a corner/situation on the street -

That's great!! what bike are you using? 4 days will get you into their way of thinking.

Since you're doing the course at Barber shortly....i'll leave it them to teach you in their words and style that knowingly works. Just one point....Slowing the bike while in ca corner will cause it to fall NOT stand up.....more throttle in a corner will cause the bike to want to stand up!...therefore more steering input required. These guys and gals at CSS know what they're doing....don't assuming anything.....go in with an open and blank mind. My PB laptime at Barber on my r6....1:32 -

Spinto replied to faffi's topic in School Questions/General Discussion
racing regionally i used Dunlop Ntechs...exclusively....hard carcas.....better feel for me. Racing our National series, we were forced to use Pirelli. Soft Carcas....worked well until they let go and you're thrown off the track. -
Why Are We Weighting The Outside Peg?
Spinto replied to gogogusgus's topic in Cornering and Techniques
This is surely stirring the pot!! Not sure if those posting are racers, track day riders, have taken any training with CSS or just enthusiasts. I've done 2 days of the school in California....because i had to to qualify for Code Race. Then i did 2 days of Code Race right after. My experience with weighting pegs....the outside in particular....was with exiting a tight corner and hard on the gas while leaned over. My other experience with the pegs is in a tight chicane where i need to change direction quickly....so i move the bike under me....there isn't enough time to go "touring" on the track! I'm curious how many have actually perfected just getting through the turns cleanly and with proper form? Slow in...Fast out! -
Out of curiosity.....one day school?

Counter steer harder into the corner...or less speed. -
I race in a class where i'm the only Amateur, the others are Pros. when everything is right....which it has been lately....i'll pull 5 -6 lengths on them. So, I'm on an '07 R6. Hold the rpm at 10,000 ..right on the ground...over the tank..btw i weigh 230....and ABUSE the clutch...feed it out and dont let the rpm drop....depending on gearing....short shift if necessary...my 2 cents
