Ferkin great.
I will try and upload one of the sessions. Didn't manage to get rid of the chicken strips but after watching the vids there are a couple of shots where | am following somebody round the bends at the same speed but they have their knee down. Guess I must just be rubbish........(no, don't agree)

No kneedown, on a trackday. That's like heresy. Give up trying!

Woo, so I take it you didn't bin it!? Thats great news. Just look at the Ape and me, knee down has little to do with speed, more just wether you are hanging off or not. But if you are not hanging off, then your bike is leaning more so technically you should have getton rid of those strips more easily!

Glad you had fun, lets see all these videos then!

Technically speaking if you hang off more you can go faster around corners, that's what the kneedown is all about. Bike is more upright = more grip = faster. I do it purely to make sparks as they're pretty.
