But hold on you said your hitting turn 6 in 5th gear? idk that seems fast for that turn unless its not really depicted right on the map.
Dont gague it by what gear he is in, different bikes can be in different gears in a given turn.

I think tony said he just taps the brakes going into 6 and thats it I need to work my way up to that a bit more.

T-bolt is a mix of everything for the most part its big and fast to reward the bigger HP bikes but also has its technical areas, that long right and the left after it are kinda tricky and it seems there are different lines through there. Some of the stuff in that race video was similar to what we were taught/shown and some was different.

What I think you will find interesting is going from a fast street guy to a track guy is theres a ton of stuff you dont know and will have a lot of room to improve as you learn different things in a controled environment.

And if ya keep it up I promise to stuff yer ass in a turn as a welcome to the track
