Looks like Grant Ryley and Jeff Rodrigues are double dip'in on the two wheel side, too.

Re: New Skip Superbike School Website
Copied from the curriculum section:
"and video feedback is used throughout the program to measure and check your progress."
Nice feature. I wonder if the four-wheeled folks are considering this? Of course, if Gerardo's TJR post (circa 2004?) feedback is any indication of interest, maybe not. But I'd love to have video review for lapping and practice as an SBRS option... I learn almost as much of what to do (and not to do) watching my race vids as I do from instructor feedback.

Re: New Skip Superbike School Website
In the plans for a new car that could be configured for school or race series use with or without wings and easily changed engine outputs for school, regional and national series use the cars were to have built in data acquisition and video recording. All you'd do is slide a memory card into the dash and voila'... you'd have video and data of any session you ran that could be reviewed by plugging it into your laptop.
But that was when we had money for nothin' and chicks for free... And even then there wasn't enough money for the new racecar...

Wow... what could have, would have been... I guess I'll shop incessantly for the perfect camera and computer, forget about it, go back to the track and go round and round making the same mistakes over and over again thinking how great it would be to have video feedback to save me money (and risk) and make me a better driver!

Re: New Skip Superbike School Website
Exactly... In the end most of us get paid to leave.
