Thats the plan Jon. Thanks very much for your comment :) at least 1 person has found it useful then haha

Thankyou :)

Awesome! Best of luck with it and take it easy

Thanks Brian! I hope you get nicer weather too 🤣 Best of luck mate, give it some pasty! ✊✊✊

Nice one, thanks very much 👍

Your very welcome

Glad you found it useful! I will be there myself :)

First round back after a year off Tom. On a thou I’ve never ridden 🤣. Definitely need as many tips as I can get Mate.

@@danieladams136 haha! I haven’t ridden the GSXR too much so not a dissimilar boat. Let’s just pray for decent weather 🤞

Tommys vids have probably saved me a lot of leather and paint as well, good luck out t here 👍

haha thankyou! your the second person to ask today. I suspect something fishy going on! haha I will do a croft one first most probably. They take so much time to do. Cadwell would be good for the views but I didn't go particularly well there this year.

Have fun! Take it easy

Thanx i'll try 👍 best wishes and good luck@@TommyFielding

@@cabbage681 thankyou :)

No problem mate! I hope you have a good day 👌

Hi I found Tommy's footage really helpful as well. Ive got a bright orange Fireblade, come say hello if you spot me 😊

Nice one bud! Thanks very much for the comment and I hope it helps you out :)

Wicked mate! Glad you had a good day. I know people have been complaining about noise there, is it quite strict now?

@@TommyFielding yes mate I had to put a baffle from a 600 ninja in my 911 blade, road legal pipe and lost a few HP so I've ordered an Akra baffle in the hope it won't affect the bike as much next time

@@cabbage681 it’s a pain in the arse but we gota do it if we want TD’s to stay. End up with 3ft long silencers 😅

@@TommyFielding and a pillow strapped to the end lol, hopefully get to shake your hand one day dude, thanx again for all the great advice:-)

@@cabbage681 probably mate yeah! 😂 defo come and say hello if you find yourself at a no limits race meeting 👍

Yeah mate we had a wee bit of damage to deal with on friday 🤣 did you have a good weekend?

@@TommyFielding yes, our team won the club 1000 endurance race but I am not racing this year

Ah well done! How come your not racing?

@@TommyFielding money money money, inflation got me lol ..my Mortgage bloody went up by £560 mate Totally destroyed my budget .. love your videos mate, keep it up

@@ChasingTenths i didn’t think I would be racing this year tbh mate! It’s getting daft, fingers crossed my engine sticks together 🤞hopefully catch up with you at some point

Thanks for the comment! Pretty sure I take it in 3rd and then go back to 2nd before turning right. I have a blipper so take the gears at my leisure to keep the bike stable

Sorry for the slow reply! I dont seem to get notifications sometimes. Thanks for the comment!

Wicked! Are you planning a trackday there? Road tyres are nothing in comparison to a set of wets on a more consistent surface. One problem with the road is all the tarmac is different and usually covered in crap/ fluids meaning it’s impossible to know how much grip is available. If it’s any consolation I ride like an absolute fairy on my road bike when it’s wet 🤣

Yep just sorting my van with MOT and then i'm hopefully going to make the evening session for beginners on April 28 👍 @@TommyFielding

@@cabbage681 good luck :)

Cheers dude, I'm all booked up for Snetterton on the 29th 🤣 All the best for this season 👍 @@TommyFielding

@@cabbage681 thanks mate, have fun! :)?

I could have done with it as well! 🤣 are you doing teesside? I’m there next weekend.

@@TommyFielding no, I’m going to do no limits for the first half of the year as can’t do many more due to holidays and stag do’s getting in the way, so the plan is to get out on the pit bike as the calendar works better. Might come up and have a look at Teesside and see how it works and pick a few peoples brains though 👍🏼

@@matracing ok buddy, well have fun. Maybe see you there 😎

It’s always just a case of taking little bits at a time. Snetterton is quite low grip but feels fine when the weather is ok. I think getting under 2m on a trackday will be difficult due to traffic etc but best of luck with it. Let me know how you get on :)

@@TommyFielding well mate i managed a 2m02, thanks for the video learned alot.

@@baznap thats amazing! Well done mate. Not hanging around at that kind of place 😎

Did you manage it yet, ive only ridden it once as a novice and I guestimated it took me abought a very long time🤣🤣hope your still having fun, Best wishes👍

@cabbage681 I started racing this year and snett was out first track. I managed a 2m01. And bagged a best of 3rd place in No Limits 1000cc Newcomers. So I have unfinished business. The video really helped though so study it for the best lines and you'll soon knock off several seconds. Good luck. 👍

1:59 on a trackday is effing fast mate! Won’t find many people doing those sort of times I wouldn’t have thought. But your right, getting into the flow, ideally with a tow makes the lap time come so much easier!

Hey! Thanks for the comment, glad you found the video useful. I think i’m guilty of not really picking reference points other than my brake markers for the big stops 😅 I’m on a 1000 this year so new braking markers will be required!

Nice! Rather be there in August than round 1 in March! 🥶 Just take it easy and have fun

Glad you found it useful! What tyres are you running? On SC1 slick or supercorsa I would go 36f 25r on the warmers

@@TommyFielding ill be using Michelin power GP

@@TommyFielding are those pressures after removing the tire warmers?

@@boomboom7207 those pressures are on the tyre warmer however I have no idea how the michelin is constructed so can’t say. Best to ask tyre support

@@TommyFielding will do thank you very much

I certainly am, will be doing all the no limits rounds if everything goes to plan. Are you?

@@TommyFielding yes mate can’t wait to be there now lol 😂 I’ll come see you

@@ROBOCOP2487 I'm excited but another couple of weeks won't do my hand / wirst any harm :D see you there mate!

Hi, thanks for the comment, sorry for the slow response. Turn 3 is a bit tricky, try not to panic about your approach speed. You can brake into here but try not to change the pitch of the bike. Nice wide entry and just let her roll in, this will scrub off speed as you move in on the apex which is a good chunk of the way around. I use 3rd but I would imagine it's a 2nd gear corner on a big bike, the extra engine brake will help slow down the bike too!

@@TommyFielding Well I went in hot, 2nd lap. Cold day. Tipped in on the brakes, got halfway across the track, released the brake, front let go, next thing I’m sliding across the grass watching the bike bouncing along, praying it doesn’t flip over😂. Both ok apart from the usual clipon, peg, gear selector.

@@jaykay1168 bloody hell mate, glad your ok. Is this the only corner you fall off at?

@@TommyFielding And run off.

Hey! Sorry for the slow reply.....sometimes I don't get notifications. A lot of the speed is gained on corner exit and getting your bum back on the seat to really tuck in. This bike isn't a stock engine and makes 131.5bhp at the tyre. There are quite a lot of modifications over a standard bike but fairly run of the mill for a race bike. I would imagine I have around 15bhp more, 10 of those probably come from supporting mods such as a full titanium system, light generator,kit bell mouths and a tune. The other small percentage comes from a bit of head work and properly dialling in the cams. Glad you enjoyed the video, please consider subscribing :) Thanks

Hi, i use 15:45 at snett, and yes 6th on back straight 👍 15:45 is a good starting point for most tracks I would say

Hi, thanks for the comment! Yeah I will get around to it eventually. I do have onboards from cadwell, plenty of 1m32 laps as well 😁

Just get yourself out in the novice group, take it easy and enjoy yourself. Good your doing some research here though so you actually know what way the track goes.

@@TommyFielding yeah I’ll keep watching so I know what to expect. Thanks man

@@jameswilson7498 no worries, enjoy! Smash that subscribe button 😉

2016 13S It could be a 2008 and it would perform the same

Sorry for the V slow reply. I’m pretty sure it says at the beginning of the video?

My gearing could be totally different to whoever is watching the video

no problem! It's not my favourite either, practice makes perfect though :)

@@TommyFielding how many track days do you do a year ? Ever thought about coaching 🙄😂

@@MrAlexMoto 🤣 haha people have asked me this before. I don’t really do trackdays to be honest, did one at Oulton 2 weeks ago but only because I haven’t been there much and not since 2021. I would advise getting your own onboard camera and then studying your own footage, really helps me

@@TommyFielding fair enough I guess people just get in your way at your pace 😂. I need to work on better body position I think but camera still good idea thanks 🤙.

@@MrAlexMoto my body position isn’t the raciest either, some people look twice as fast as me in the pitlane! I guess there is no wrong body position, just the bike has to be set up different depending on how you ride it. Not doing trackdays comes down to budget really, use the money to go racing so not a lot left for trackdays unless it’s really necessary
