trackday - circuit carole - france

[chnordiste]

hi every one.

I post here the video of my last trackday experience (the second) on the "Carole" track.
The "circuit Carole" is a small track (length : 1300 miles /2100 km), exclusively design for motorcycle. It’s located on Paris’ north-East and close to the airport ( you can see planes landing on the video)

This trackday event consist in six sessions of 20mn for each level group. With only one track experience I’m logically in the beginner one.

There some photo

For those who don’t want to see the all 8mn of the video,

there is the summery :

0:53 one complete lap, rear view
2:08 girls on bikes (3 in the beginner section)
3:20 5 subsequent pass
4:39 Ride with yzf-R6 and gsxr 600

6:42 My 2 « offroad » mistake
- first one : I blocked the rear wheel
- seconde : wrong trajectory
7:44 the day in numbers

I dunno, but looks like you are cornering different.
For the right you really lean your body, but for the left you are more "shy".

nice track btw

yes, that's the problem with this track, there are 7 right turn and only 2 left turn (and not the easy one)
thus my right cornering improve much faster than the other

A great example is the slider's conditions after the day. the left one is nearly brand new and the right is out of order.

thx. hopfully I was not really fast, so didn't need to brake.
if you look close to the grass (on the video), you'll see another pilot had gardened the corner just before
(I go along his mark when coming back to the track)

My last trackday was like that. I impoved my skills to turn left...but for the right...
