I need all the help I can get... I plan to go to an actual kart track soon..

next time you see me at the track, holla at me.. and yeah, false neutrals are a bit nerve racking... glad yours didn't end bad either... and thanks for watching my vids.

honestly, it is easy, but time consuming..

thank you very much, I appreciate it.. What helmet do you currently have?

insta 360 Go3

much appreciated as always

thanks LB

Thanks a lot man... see you next season..

Likewise man.. You doing Road Atlanta next year?

Gtreat band.. Saw them live a few years ago..

id love to ride a bike with all the good electronics. but there is a part of me that's old school and want to properly learn how to ride without them before I move to a new bike with electronics. but thank you, its the thought that counts.

Yep, idk if you also race or do TDs but yeah the fatigue is real, pushing for a 15-lap race is brutal and off-season conditioning is important. This is a good reminder that I need to do a LOT of cardio before spring

@ghosk i race and do trackdays as well, ive only had that issue this past summer during an endurance race, did around a 45 min stint in july in georgia

@@codycreger1968 that's awesome, yeah I'm trying to start ASRA and N2 Endurance next season. To your original point I only strained and ran out of steam like that when I was trying to do too much, hang off too much, push too hard, forget to breath, etc. Coaching def helped me, maybe it can help this guy!

based on how I sounded, I do need to work on my endurance..

5th - 6th? that a Tuesday and Wednesday.. id love to ride down there, but I have to work and probably can't get the time off, I just took time off to attend this race at barber..

Will do for sure..

I won't even call that a save.. it was pure luck lol

​@@smithshotracing Don't downplay it. When shit happens, loose on the bars, light on the pegs, no panic. Those are skills! Good job.

Much appreciated... and yes, im still having a lot of fun.. looking forward to our trackday next year.

I was like, damn, that’s a long comment. But you are 100% correct in everything you just said. Seat times and proper coaching is required. I’m booking a Trackday in two weeks and am currently talking with a coach today to work with me that Trackday. So thank you Randy!!

@@smithshotracing 😜My passion for the craft sometimes comes out in my comments and I get a little "carried away". I'm grateful for the great coaching that I am getting and would love every rider get the same. I say I'm a "noob" but I started track days August of 2021 and have only missed one class since then. Started racing in an "introduction" class we call Super Street in August of 2022. I took the class championship both in 2023 and 2024. Moving up to Novice Amateur class next season. With all that said, I knew nothing when I started and only just barely scratching the surface of the skills needed to get around the track both safe and fast. I would not be anywhere close to where I am without rock solid coaching. It's an investment that pays me back every time I am on the track and the street. Sorry for another long comment but as I said my passion for the craft takes over..... I am hoping I can share at least a little of what I have learned and help someone like I was helped. 😎👊❤🏍🏁

@@peytonhibdon7659 just that down hill right? The entire track takes my breath 😆

You mean Museum Turn? I took my XSR to Barber for the first time a few weeks ago, and that turn was terrifying. I'd never before encountered a turn where I was off the throttle at the apex. Or did you mean T14? Normally that'd be a cautious turn for me but traction control was amazing. This was the first time I'd ever used a TC/ABS equipped bike on the track and it's a game-changer. I had three faster guys trying to pass me out of Charlotte's web then highside right in front/beside me. I may be on a 900cc bike, and it's a triple, and I'm slow through corners, but a 6-axis IMU bike is wicked fast out of slow turns.

It would be turn 7 . 7 b depending upon who is describing the track. Your already a bit discombobulated using the left Rumble strip at the top of the hill. Then directly into the downhill right. Definitely works my head lol😂

All tips are helpful.. that’s probably why I’m gassed after every race.

@@smithshotracing Cardio time!

@@rooneyw2208 trust, I do, do cardio. I just have to do more 😂 my buddy Andy says the same thing to me all the time.

@@smithshotracing I'm going to lace up and do a short 6 mile run just for you.

A buddy of mine told me to “talk to yourself” while spinning laps. Helps with breathing

@@619WISHY 💪🏾thank you.

Not gonna lie… and I DO NOT recommend. But I don’t torque them. I just tighten until I feel they are tight enough. So far it has worked for me.

@@Super-Bike-Joe but the torque specs are in a manual that I have, I just don’t use 😂

Dude.. Thank you for the compliment and the comprehensive comment Lol.. but seriously, thanks and you are more than welcome.. the vid was a lot of work. im glad you enjoyed it.. and the X15 is a solid choice...

you are welcome... and thank you for watching and commenting. the x-15 is a solid choice, it was my favorite before the R10.

I know.. 😩

much appreciated as always man... I love hearing things like this..

it sucks any time of the year..

thank you very much and I am looking forward to seeing what you do on the track.. you have no videos yet, but I just because your second sub.. post some vids..

yo, on the real.. thank you very much. comments like this actually do mean something to me. even though im not getting any money from this RUclips thing, your comment lets me know that its not for nothing..

@@smithshotracing for sure…. Because ppl are scared they’re not sharing their experiences so we think it may not be possible and not even try… Next season I’m full throttle because of you bro…

I did a vid on it, I want to say that I listed the link in the bio of that video.. ruclips.net/video/o925sw0pEec/видео.html

Nice, what colors did you paint yours?

@@smithshotracing honda red

I don't even know where to begin to check them.

@@smithshotracing They are the interlocking teeth in the transmission which connect the gears. Aggressive riding like is done on the track with quick shifts wears them down because often they are expected to handle the torque of the next gear without bein fully engaged. In your case I would first try to adjust your rear-set toe shifter down so your foot has more range of motion in the pull and ensure each shift is fully engaged. Or try switching up to MotoGP style so your literally stomping down into upper gears. I've heard it's cool...I'm just an old dog who can't learn new tricks.

not gonna lie, sometimes I go alone.. and I do understand why that's a bad thing. I had a bad crash a few years and ended up in the hospital overnight...

@@smithshotracing I crashed racing mini Motard once. I broke my finger and had to drive in pain 4 hrs home. . Yea man try to talk someone in to going with you. I am an old dude now and I go Kayaking alone and MTB alone. My son who is in thirties now got married so he can't go racing or hanging out with the old man anymore. And I have been single for decades now. I gotta get some friends. Young bro be careful and take someone to the track with you

@@d.d.sarason8749 will do..

it is a fun but difficult track..

ive never been there before, I might have to check its out.

funny thing, im replacing my clutch plates this week. so I might make a vid about that..

much appreciated Joe

lol thanks man..

Thanks a lot man..

It's slowly getting there... but thank you.

You're right and I need a lot of practice.. Going to the track next week.

@@smithshotracing I need to do the same thing

regular old sunlight, at the right time tho..

@@smithshotracing no the lights in the ceiling

@@christophersnell9331 gotcha.. installed them myself..

for sure... im not trying to crash lol

as old as I am, I still love DBZ... waiting on new episodes of Super. 😑

thank you.. and if we are ever at the track the same time, lets smoke a cigar..

May I ask a question ?? Have you attended any road racing schools?? If so which ones??

@@Super-Bike-Joe ive done Cali Superbike School and Race School Europe.

I never heard of Bad Brains.. I just looked them up and they aren't bad at all. I wish back then I was aware of them to see them. I can tell that Nirvana drew inspiration from them, they sound similar.

How About some DC Go Go. Try some Rare Essence and Backyard.or that Bounce Beat bands TCB. Reaction band

@@d.d.sarason8749 I Like NE Groovers, Junk, All the brothers and sisters of GoGO .. Just showing love to the harDCore scene but love and respect to all the music out of the DMV . #Salute

@@dcrasta Oh yea. I am old enough to remember the Bad Brains. Minor Threat Fugazi ,Scream. . I play a little guitar myself. I used to Skateboard a little. I used to drag Race down at V Street . I road raced at Summit Point ,VIR, Carolina MSP. I raced pocket bikes at Sandy Hook. I used to rid indoor Motard at All sports. I played Basketball and Softball down at Anacostia park. I raced at MD international and Capital raceway. I listen to hard rock,RNB. Soft rock,and more Go Go than you could probably imagine. We even had our own band in SE. I am DC all the way. I have just gotten old man . I am 55 now.

@@dcrasta Yea I just went up to Timonium to watch my buddy flat track. I am putting my flat track bike back out .I used to race Mini Motard and YSR. Up at NJMinigp. I am also planning a Hare Scramble race later this year. I also love all the music that comes out of DMV. I am super biased to DC. I was also in the USMC in the late 80s and early 90s

ran out of my life.. "damn!" lol... but seriously, I am working on it.

Brrrppppp back at you lol

@@JLUnlimited 😂 I won’t consider my self high level at all. I’m still a mid pack novice. As for the music, I plan to mix it up a bit. But understand that most of my viewers are a certain demographic But, what would you suggest?

Dude I have been the only black dude at the track many times in the early 90s. . Now in my late 50s ( I don't race anymore)I have flat tracked and was the brother. I have Supermoto and was the only brother. I still Drag race occasionally but it's always as many brothers as anyone else. I also Kayak and MTB. And was almost always the only brother. And I blast that good Go Go music wherever I go. I am from the Hood in Washington DC.
