i just posted up another video... from nov. 21 as for CMP "flowing" it doesnt lol its just a very technical track, you gotta really try hard to make CMP flow. im still trying to learn to carry more corner speed through its tight low speed corners. this was my first time back on this track in almost a year and a half. towards the end of the day i started to make it "flow" a bit, but by the time i started to get back in the groove the day was over.(but then again so were the tires, heck the left side of my ntec had no siping from the begining lol, i want another shot with some fresh tires!!) if you've never been before.... get ready to learn how to brake lol
yes i use the clutch to upshift. its alot easier on the transmission and smoother. as soon as i get my quick shifter hooked up i wont have to bother with it anymore! if you wanna do clutchless upshifts get a quick shifter.
Maybe you should read this article. http://www.sportrider.com/riding_tips/146_0704_clutchless_upshifting/index.html
yea i've seen it before, ...personal preference i guess. i've always just used the clutch, plus ive almost always had a quickshifter on my all of my race bikes, so i never really had to worry about it. Quickshifter, done.
