Hey, you didn't know the track. What'd expect, instant race dude? I guess you can take more risks on the track in a race cage, but until you know the track, only a stupid guy is going to push the envelope on a motor when he doesn't know the turns.

The racer dudes have names for every turn, they know them so well. Yeah, they go by number, but they often even name them.

redline - have you done a lot of trackdays at this point?

... and those guys telling you to Shift! Shift! - I say B.S. !!! At least according to Jason Pridmore, who told us to keep it in 2nd (at Thill) around the whole track. He said you'll learn more about throttle control with the revs up high because the throttle is extremely sensitive in the high revs (no kidding!)

and your crash - the revs were low, I guess the lean angle of the bike + too much throttle roll on at that point = spinup!

Yeah, here is a rider that is also a teacher.
