This is a pretty cool video of a dude running a 600 in a hw race at Summit. Sounds like he gets down to first gear in t1? Is that a slipper clutch revving like that?

I was there and reconized a few guys he was passing, most of them were 750's and 600 machines.

T1 he was down shifting to 2nd and that was his rear wheel hopping making that sound. That is what happens when us fast guys just down shift and don't blip the throttle.

Thats sick! My favorite part was the draft at 6:19, then just about side by side...then wait for it...wait for it...wait for it...other guy brakes then hes hard on the brakes(6:28) and had the inside line. Perfect execution.
