Misfire

Question for you clever lot.

Lets say you are approaching a hairpin, you are in the top end of 4th and the hairpin for arguments sake is 2nd.

Do you guys Brake and st down or are you some how blipping the throttle on the way down the box?

When I did this at mallory I would brake, somehow let off to clutch in and blip the throttle then re brake but I take it I am doing it all wrong.

In fact I just read that you fast boys use 2 finger braking and blipping.

I'll concentrate on lines first hehe

I take it for now I should just smoothly let out the clutch.

I'm not fast, but that's what I do, two fingers on lever and roll palm back to blip

Now that I have a slipper clutch I drop how many gears I need and just let the clutch out.

No blipping.
