Just thought this may help some people............................



Rickey Gadson’s Sportbike Dragracing School


www.rickeygadson.net

Date ~ October 15-17th, 2008
Location ~ Cayuga, ON (Toronto Motorsports Park)


Basic 2 Day Class ~ $700 (students must bring their own Motorcycle)
This is our basic class for riders with little to no drag racing experience.
Day 1 - Starts in the classroom with a PowerPoint presentation going over safety, safety equipment, the bike and its controls. From there we proceed to the racetrack to learn the tracks staging system as well as the timing system.
Now its time for students to suit up and begin their drag racing experience starting from the burnout box to the starting line, and depending on individual comfort and ability we'll start learning how to "60 foot the motorcycle" (launch).
Day 2 – Starts with the classroom-reviewing day 1 instructions, and discussing any issues or concerns. Then back to the track to advance from where each individual left off. By early to mid afternoon we will be making full track runs. At the completion of the class riders who advance to full throttle runs will receive a certificate of completion, which will be recognized by the AMA US Drag, racing series (Prostar) as a means of getting an ET license. All 9-second runs can be used to complete riders NHRA ET licensing. Digital Video DVD's and photos will be available for purchase to remember your experience.

Advance 1 Day Class ~ $650 (students must bring their own Motorcycle)
Advanced classes are for people with racetrack experience or riders who have been completed Rickey's school.
The advanced classes will teach you the mental side of drag racing. We'll teach you thinks like, how to break down your time slips incremental numbers and see where you need improvement. How to improve your reaction time, deep staging, shallow staging, rolling the beams, the secret to dial ins for bracket racers, tricking your opponent, track temps, tire temps. Rickey will also teach you how read the barometer, altitude and humidity affect your bikes performance, and how to correct for it. How to use a power commander when tuning at the track.
