Re: How to deal with wheelspin...


Welcome to highside hill. You're coming out of the slowest corner on the track (3), then accelerating up a hill which loads the rear tire and gives you lots of traction to goose the thing and get your speed back up.

Then you reach the top of the hill and it flattens out into an off camber section which reduces your available traction. Tricky spot for the big bikes. I'd recommend chilling a bit through that area until you get the lay off the land. Especially since there may be smaller bikes behind you that caught up to you in three and are looking to pass you before the bowl.
