This was far from my first track day. The only variable that changed was my pace picked up as I was trying to keep up with a faster group of riders. Throttle was neautral, so that doesn't seems like the issue. The evidence points to the tire letting go, so it seems logical that I need better tires to increase the margin for error.Xiong675;217519 wrote: When i crashed my first trackday, tried to blame the tires also. I was looking for something to blame besides me; it didn't get me anywhere. Once i understood that it was my fault for not performing and got back out there with a clearer head, i was able to progress much better. Like Greg said, leave the past be. Chasing it won't get you no where unless it was clearly something wrong with the bike.
Goodluck to ya.
Leave the past be! Never. Mistakes are the most valuable learning one can do. You really know what not to do. It immediately points out you weak spot. There is no guess on where you need to improve when it comes to a mistake. You have an immediate chance to improve where you need it the most. It would be one thing if I was guess. I have a video with the camera mounted to the tail section. I can see body position and hear the engine. The evidence is pretty clear.
I'm really surprised no one wants to say that there are limits to lower performing tires. Eventually, you need better equipment. I could probably work on skills, but getting better tires is a much faster, easier way of not crashing. In the end, not crashing is the goal.
