Yep, we're going to have to work on your hole-shot skillz...you may need to go to Northstar with 84 tonight.BeautifulDisaster wrote:Oh yes I've had a few run ins with outstanding members of society already. Women driver's are the worst. Most guys are sweet and a few actually waved me on (though today one jackass in a Lexus pulled up to me wanting to race, asshat, I didn't bite let him be the jerk). Ultimately, I'm being safe and having so much fun!! <3

Re: Avoiding rolling on throttle when breaking
I'm not that kind of girl! I usually don't get into a pissing contest because it's much more satisfying to stand back and watch people piss all over themselves. Oh! Don just told me what a hole-shot is; definitely will be useful later on for the track!
At my current skill level, out there tonight, I could wave...while sitting in the stands. Maybe drinking a beer. I don't want to hold anyone back.

Re: Avoiding rolling on throttle when breaking
I know it's a late response in regards to gripping the tank, but tank grippers on the tank really help when riding. I used to slide forward quite a bit under hard braking, but the tank grippers eliminated that.
