How to break through the barrier?

[johan]

I've found my Mychron3 data logger very valuable. It removes a lot of the guess work trying to figure out where you are inconsistent and such.

[Sidewinder]

Its quite relevant no matter how fast you are or how long you've been riding.

but what if you have to teach the teachers?

Change the music you listen to before track time.

I am not bullshitting about this either. I have met 3 racers so far that have used this - and cut time.

I did it once for one of my loops - I pushed things a whole lot quicker and harder.

There was also a rumour that this is why the stig had classical - as it slowed him down a bit through the top gear track which only gives good times for consistency.

What I like to do (may sound stupid - but then hey - that's me), is to massively over inflate my tyres, and have my suspension set on rock solid. This lets me slide everywhere all the time. This is the fastest way for me to learn how to control slides and learn what happens at full speed and also in the event of a near disaster!! It very quickly hones your skills!

Wow - this is exactly how I like to ride!!! SCARY someone thinks like me

I know that this won't sound popular, but my advice is to NOT start racing on a Superbike!
Start racing on a small bike (400, 450, 250 Proddy [best in my book]) and learn to ride the nuts off it.
Then move to bigger bikes that require more skill, knowledge, experience.

Like the Oirishman once said, "Well, if you want to get to there, Oi wouldn't be staartin from here".

Unless you're Keith Code, I dont see much chance of that happening.

Brian Bernard is the man, his own results and the results of his riders will prove this, he's available to coach you and it will be a great investment.

Motocross!

Had to get rid of the RM cause I kept scaring myself silly on it hahaa.

Was great for fitness and getting used to having the bike moving under ya though.
