[QUOTE="wardy, post: 34341, member: 16710"] Old quote here.....jump for show and corner for dough. course 20 years ago there wasn't free style! anyway if you want to go fast you win and loose with cornering. i always tell my riders i help, to look at a track....count the jumps and then count the corners, no to often do the jumps win. so be faster on the most parts of the track.(corners) now jumps are important but lets face it, you show me a good racer, i will show you a rider that corners well and keeps his speed up. anyone is fast down the straights. another thing to go into this a little bit. your time is made GOING INTO THE CORNER!! most anyone can accelerate out, don't be afraid to let the front end drift into the corner and use your acceleration to "turn" you. THIS isn't sliding violantly but more a controlled arch and pitch. feet on the pegs AS much as possible. but if you put that leg out DO NOT HAVE YOUR KNEE UNDER THE BARS or in front of the bar and always never ever lock you knee! I have to blown out knees from 26 years of racing to prove that theroy. if you look at the pro's in the pics and at the races most of them most of the time keep that knee out of that area, or you can end up with that CTI brace comercial blues. hope i didn't go off the subject to far but cornering is an art form in my mind and it is also what i truley believe is the difference between champions and also rans. wardy ------------------ "don't wake me.......I am working."
