[QUOTE="Old Guy, post: 1447797, member: 35438"] I endurance raced a couple of seasons a long, long time ago, and yes, just having the confidence that I could roll into a corner on the track confidently knowing there was nothing in the road, nothing coming from the other direction, yada, yada, made a huge difference. Add that to the fact that I'd made the same corners from the same direction over and over again made hitting the marks much easier. I often don't even use the same lines on the road that I'd have used in that corner if it'd been on a track. On public roads, I'll go into blind corners wide and slower just to get a good look before committing. Nonetheless, I quickly became the fastest guy in our little riding group simply because the days at the track gave me more confidence in my abilities. I didn't go as fast on public roads, but I still went a heck of a lot faster than before the track experience. [/QUOTE]
