Race schools?

[OB_Ambush]

Hey everybody, I'm fairly new to this extreme fast stuff, my last bike was a 600. I consider myself a fairly good rider but i want to be very good at hanging these turns. Does anyone know of a school or a track that i could learn how to be a better rider. BTW i live in San Francisco, CA. Northern Cal.

I took California Superbike School, it was awesome, I'm a 100% better rider now! They have classes in Willow springs and at Laguna seca. BTW I used their bike Kaw zx6r

I took the DP Safety School at Laguna Seca (they teach at lots of tracks and were recomended to me by three different people). Overall, I thought it was poorly run and I would not recommend it (except for all the free run track time).

I have heard nothing but positive comments about Calif Superbike School. Also agree that you should use their bike - frees your mind when pushing the turns (no pretty Busa fairing at risk)

Laguna Seca is a great track except for the darn air you get 3/4 down the straight while youre setting up for turn 2. I kept getting headshakes and had to keep it under 120. Also, most of the riders at LS thought Sears point was too tight a track to have any fun and greatly preferred LS.

I also took the Keith Code school this past spring. It was outstanding! I'd recommend it to anyone.

Here is a start, most are all over but a few still remain. Some are close, and some are not so close to you.

In addition you can go to www.northernlight.com and search for "motorcycle school" and get 215,000 hits.
