[Figure 1] This data is for two separate riders at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch in Pahrump, NV, coming off the track’s back straight. Notice the more experienced rider (bottom blue trace) closes the throttle abruptly, while the opposing rider (bottom red trace) gradually shuts the throttle just after the 9000 feet mark. The benefit for the more experienced rider is that he can transition to the brakes exponentially quicker. The top traces show speed for each rider.
