I'm no pro by far, but who really is? Riding styles vary, depending on rider size, condition, and level of skill. Some people have that natural ability. I personally, have taken various riding instructional programs. You can spend anywhere from $50-$2500 for motorcycle schools. I attended my first Ridesmart trackday March 29,2009 then did TWS on April 4th. I found that for a reasonable $120 I recieved complementary food night before trackday/school and next day lunch also. Plus the level 1 and 2 school is free with trackday expense. Then there is a level 3 Ty Howard Race School class available for $50 extra. That's a bargain. Ty holds almost all the track records in Texas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. The school made me feel like I was part of the family. I've even managed to bring my lap times down 5-8 seconds from March till now. They even had Erion Honda's Shae Forchek at Eagles Canyon doing instruction. Family, food, education, fun and you get to ride and be taught by racing professionals. Another thing, I told Dave of Ridesmart a few little critisms and at the next event he added some of my helpful suggestions which made things work a little better and safer for everyone at the event. They also post videos on youtube so you can get a sample of the motorcycle school in action to see for free. Go to youtube/user/ridesmart1 and check out over 100 free educational videos and the fast, smooth line around the tracks. You owe it to yourself, hone your skills. Next time your at a Ridesmart event stop by and give me some feedback at my pit area. I'm Ricky #464 of "Killer Bee Racing" squad. You won't be able to miss my truck/trailer rig. Pop in, later.

Ah, you're the Ricky Bobby I've heard about. Is it something special about MSR-H, or are you slow everywhere?

What's up? I'm not slow, just average. I've only been on the track a short time and I'm determined to become a faster, more competitive rider. I really enjoy company of other riders and make most out of each event. Everybody is great! I always welcome constructive critism, especially positive ones. Hope ya'll come by introduce yourselves in person if you see me at an event or race. Ricky464

Both. If I don't beat him in the races, I'm going to plug his fuel vent when no one is looking. :keke: Of course plugging his vent line after the race probably won't help me beat him, so I'm still working on the logistics of it all.
