Just did my first track day at Loudon. Left knee puck got a good work out. My Pilot Sports look like they cought fire (after seeing how well my brothers M1's held up, think I might get a set). This track is a must ride. It is short enough that you get to really learn the ins and outs of the turns. Did a total of 167 track miles and my legs are very sore today. Cant wait to do it again in August.

Sounds like it was Fun as all hell!

and also sounds like your brake side shy... :roll:
It's all the same. both left and right, it's just in your mind...
try something fun and use your left hand to eat with if you're a rightie... that will help in training you to think on your weak side of your thoughtfullness...
With all my injuries and adaptations I've become quite ambidextrious (sp) lol...

serious though... get the equal state of mind and rail them rights! :twisted:

Dont get me wrong, the right side was used but Loudon is mostly a left turn track. Right knee only touches the rumble strip in turn 1a and turn 3. Got it to touch a couple times out of turn 10 also. Nothing compared to the left handers or going into turn 1 or through the Bowl.
