Question The Bus Stop at Pacific Raceways
I'm starting to run lower and lower in the minute 30's running 1:38 right now and have been dropping my times at an ever increasing rate but through all the turns i can tell how to improve and what i need to do its just doing it that im working on but the bus stop i have no clue about how to improve... any racers have suggestions for taking it faster?

Ok seriously though. When you start going smoother around the track you will want to be going through the BS in 2nd Gear. Treat it like any other corner.

Read my bikes "I ride". Remove foot from mouth
Now to the info. I take it close to the cone on the entrance, shoot through the middle and the tip over and go around the paving strip like it is a true corner. That being said obviously under true race conditions you might have to adjust to take somebody on the inside on the brakes . But a track day that line should get you around just fine.

It's actually the combo of riding a Honda & Ducati. That makes you stupid and gay. Riding a Honda & Suzuki combo makes you smart and sexy.

I'd bet that any of the DRZ owners in this thread could hand you your ass in the corners....

I'm with you on those damn DRZs and their owners.


BTW, GP, I forgot to ask you today if I could ride your DRZ. I should have brought the 4Runner, lol.
