Group2 at Snetterton this week... Advice?
Discussion
Hi All - thought I'd start a topic on track day riding as I'm at Snetterton on Wed.
I think I'm getting fairly quick this year but obviously there's always room for improvement and learning which is half the fun.
With regards to cornering, I try to maintain a neutral throttle - just wondering what your thoughts are with regards to throttle control before the apex?
In addition, there's a point at Snetterton where there's a quick left / right. I always try and not pressure the bars when moving from one side of the bike to the other but somehow never manage it and end up unsettling the bike - any thoughts or advice appreciated?
Last point – I try and complete all of my braking before I turn the bike but I’ve read about riders trailing the brake into the corner. Is this wise on road tyres?
Thanks all.. Rob.
