Favorite NHMS corner? LEAST favorite NHMS corner?

[CBR929RE]

Yeeeahhhhhh, no it's not. Not at race pace.

like I'm gonna listen to you, you only do what 17s on an SV

[OreoGaborio]

Yup. And I was using the brakes for 9 back when I was doing 16's, too.

[csmutty]

backing off the throttle and turning in is enough to slow it down.

only thing holding me back from going faster through there is chatter. well that and slowing down too much for 6. but for people around my speed I'm pretty good through 9.

Bull fucking shit. I am braking for T9 and my front still pushes on entry.

Haiii Brett!

[CBR929RE]

you people are easy to get riled up

Make me breakfast!

[CBR929RE]

Make me breakfast!

we'll do that again next year for sure

[Paul_E_D]

See my post about T8. Do that, and you'll be braking hard into T9. If you aren't needing brakes there on a 600, I'm guessing that you are holding steady throttle from 7-9 as opposed to actually getting to the stops and accelerating all that way or else you are rolling off and coasting over the top.

you ECK people are easy to get riled up

Fixed.

..... I even made Oxx shit his pants.

that was a couple years ago. I'm better now.

and I'll thank you to stay out of my tailpipe, I don't go that way.

[SVRACER01]

at the time all i saw was the ponytail so i thought you were a chick.

[marshdrummer]

Love - 9....just tipping it in without braking and hoping it sticks is cool as hell!
Hate - 11....I SUCK at it....which of course blows 11a and 12 for me...

Not a fan of 8. I used to make up a lot of time through there. Since I crashed twice there i've slowed down though. Both times I felt like I was in complete control which makes it hard to get past as I cant find a reason for it. I used to drag my knee too but now I will just skim it every now and then.

theres some bumps/ripples in the pavement through there, so its pretty easy to do something minor in there like roll off the gas a little early, too much bar input, or even transitioning a little early will upset the chassis and cause you to lose the front

[OreoGaborio]

Yup. I've done exactly that on two different occasions. Pretty "interesting" when you feel the front wash out at over 100mph.

I've been having dreams at night of T6.

Go on... any knee down?

[virtualbong]

I would say my favorite is also Turn 6 "The Bowl" but I do enjoy braking late into Turn 9 and pushing through the crowd.

[nhbubba]

Knee what? No idea what that experience would feel like.

There is a kickin' soundtrack. We're talking Kenny Loggins caliber here.

Dreams of the track? Really?

I have a life that extends beyond riding at NHMS that most users on here get to use for less than 17 days a year.

[k_cotter]

jim's too busy dreaming of men named walter holding him tightly at night.

[CDOG1974]

Fav-1 something about the speed and the way the corner flows into 1a and 2 makes that my favorite section.

Least-3 I dislike the bumps.

I'am right there with ya

Last night I dreamed there was a tater tot stuck in my hair. I'll take a dream about the track any day!

[BMMCBR]

I love 9-10. I was afraid of it my first few track days, but now it's become my favorite section of the track.

3 on the other hand is definitely a weakness for me. I'm still pretty afraid of it. Things to work on in the 2013 season!
