Unfortunately it was too wet to do this on my level 2 day at Silverstone. I was gutted as I really wanted to do this for all the reasons above. Bloody British weather

Hi everyone, I recently read an article by Andy Ibbot about knowing the limit of traction and what it feels like. My question is how do I get this level of feeling without falling off? The only time I've known about being over the limit of traction is when the rear of my bike slid out in the rain because I'd gassed it too much out of a turn (on the road). Because I didn't mess with the throttle I was OK, but I'd rather not repeat it! So, can I get this level of feeling? or have a strategy to find the traction levels?

I've recently done a track day and was picked up for "Powering round the corners". I was told not to get on the throttle until I hit the apex of the corner otherwise I would could highside. This has me confused as I thought it was best to get on the gas as soon as possible. If I was near to highsiding then could I simply be applying too much throttle? When I tip the bike in should I apply a small amount of throttle and then increase this very gradually through the turn?

Thanks Kevin. I guess I'll just have to go through the levels

Hi, I've been trying to practice getting my body into the correct position for a turn. From what I have read I should shift my weight to the inside of the turn and lock into the tank with my outside knee. I really struggle with this! Unless I'm wrong I thought most my weight should be on the outside peg. But this feels really wrong and I find I have some weight on the inside. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? or do I just need to wait for level 4 I've done CSS level 1 and will do level 2 next year. But this is really bugging me! Any pointers would be appreciated.
