I had a crash T3 Loudon. Red flag came out. I picked the bike up, got it started and made it back for the restart. Graham told me someone puked oil and i was the first one thru. Having faith in the corner workers addressing the issue i was even more determined to KICK SOME ASS! I crushed my PB of 1:19.5 October the previous season to a 1:17.1 the next season in April.
Determination, drive and focus played a big factor in my result.
Oh... and a hole in my exhaust producing a different exhaust note thinking it was Jurgen. It was not him . I was just racing myself.

So, after doing my first day at Canaan, yeah that's not a track you can do by feel alone, corners are too blind. I really should have done the school instead of racer practice.
I don't have the skillz of Oreo or Paul and even I'll tell you that Canaan is not for feelers!
There are at least 3 blinds and the one that dumps you on the straight is a lot of fun! Pick your marker, turn in straight at the guard rail and twist hard! If you did it right, the guard rail disappears.
Yes track walk is very helpful at Canaan.

I'm fortunate in that I have a high crash to miles ratio.
Faster, faster, faster until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death
I assume its a process, your fear full sub conscious has to be convinced that its ok
Should take some time and maybe extra focus
I was out west this summer and day 1 was tentative day 7 throttle steering the switchbacks
The calculus of hate
It is not that I should win it is that you should lose
It is not that I succeed it is that you fail
It is not that I should live it is that you should die
You riding dirt yet or what?
If you hit your head hard enough you won't have any cobwebs to worry about. It's like the crash never happened!
