Will it be your first time using a twist throttle? If so, we can creep around together, it's hard to get used to, this will be my second time on the twist.

The actualy jumping part isn't hard, but you REALY REALLY need to watch yourself while entering turns, a lot of times the braking bumps will cause you to blip the throttle, then send you for a fun ride over the berm

It should take a good few laps to get the hang of, but once you're used to it, you'll be railing turns, and back to normal in no time.

dreth · April 14, 2005, 09:00:33 PM
