Racer5 - TMP track video

Nice vid. I have to try some different camera angles like that. Here's a vid I took last Thursday. Not sure who #34 was the blew by me heading onto the straight for lap 2. Darned SV... haha

Nice vid... you've mentioned problems finding lines through turn 1, I think you need to cut closer to the white line after the appex on the right hand side (much smoother through there). Most of my video's show this line at turn 1 try it out some time you might like it.
 
Thanks for the tip. Later in the day I started turning in just a bit later so I could stay tight on the turtles just a tad longer and that helped a lot. When I got home I pulled my forks apart and took 1/2 a turn of preload out of the valves as I'm pretty sure I had too much compression damped causing a bit of chatter there also. I'll see how it feels next time out.

Hold on you have too much compression damping or pre-load damping?
 
Compression damping. I pulled out the RaceTech cartridge emulators and adjusted the spring preload on the valve.
These things:

My fork spring pre-load, ie sag adjustment, is correct. I'm still fine tuning the emulator valve.
 
After TMP my tires are pretty clean. Not really telling me much. I'll have to take a closer look and see.
