Never heard that suggestion before but I love it! So frustrating when you pass someone into or out of a corner only to have them fly by you on the straight and then park it again.
Ego, though. I don't see a lot of riders self-regulating themselves in that situation. Wish I could be at every track day, all the time with a crew of coaches helping everyone!!
Best advice we can all keep preaching is to get some good quality instruction, work on the skills and try and get better! there is nothing more exhilarating than hopping on a little bike and railing by everyone, hehehehehe.
