Yes actually I am planning on that before the next race weekend. I am going to practice them either tomorrow or saturday with a buddy. If that doesn't help one of my teammates said he would go to the strip with me.

They really are terrible, like embarrassingly bad.

It's funny to think back in intermediate group in track days when you thought you were moving quickly, and you would think your rear tire was moving around. That shit is laughable now!

Yea it's tough and I'd imagine much worse on a bike like an R6 than anything I've ever run. Then you have to remember that you've done so much to the bike since last season. I wouldn't get down on myself too hard, Bro. I sounds like to me that you're doing great and that you'll be a permanent fixture on the podium if you can get this aspect down.

I dunno bro... From my perspective your first start ever was amazingly awesome. C'mon... post the pic

Asside from your launches you looked fantastic out there. You're gonna do well, w/o a doubt. You've come a long way since that first track day, it's been fun watching you progress.
