Do you have any advice on methods for consistency?


 

 

Achieving consistency in bracket racing involves establishing a routine and sticking to it. Here is some advice we recommend.

  • Establish a Routine:

    • Consistency begins with a well-defined routine. From the moment you roll up for your burnout, try to duplicate your staging process as closely as possible for every pass.

    • Include specific actions like putting the visor down, positioning your feet when rolling into stage, and bringing up the RPMs.

  • Watch the Tree Consistently:

    • Riders may have different preferences for watching the tree. Some watch all the bulbs come down, while others focus on a specific bulb.

    • Regardless of your style, strive to watch the tree consistently every time.

  • Factor in Launch RPMs, Shift Points, and Body Position:

    • Launch RPMs, shift points, and body position are crucial factors influencing consistency.

    • Determine the optimal settings and positions that work for you, and make sure to replicate them consistently.

  • Develop a Comfortable Routine:

    • Establish a routine that not only contributes to consistency but also makes you comfortable on the bike.

    • Repeat the routine consistently to create a sense of familiarity and confidence.

  • Avoid Second-Guessing:

    • Once you have a routine down pat, you won't second-guess yourself. This allows you to focus on the critical aspects of racing rather than worrying about minor details.

    • Avoid situations where you might question whether you've done something essential before staging.

  • Stay Calm in Unusual Situations:

    • In the event that your routine is thrown off due to unexpected circumstances, stay calm.

    • Instead of panicking, make any necessary decisions calmly and move forward with your run.

  • Learn and Adapt:

    • Consistency is a learning process. Figure out what works best for you, and be open to adapting your routine based on your experiences.

    • Understand that consistency might vary between different motorcycles.

  • Repeat Successful Practices:

    • Emphasize the importance of repetition. Aim to do the same thing every pass, focusing on good, smooth, and straight passes while maintaining proper body position and hitting shift points.

  • Develop Bike Comfort:

    • Ensure your bike is set up to be comfortable for you. Comfort plays a significant role in achieving consistency.

    • Make necessary adjustments to your bike to suit your preferences and riding style.

  • Maintain Consistency During Races:

    • Develop a routine early on and maintain consistency during eliminations. Use the same tire pressures, fuel type, launch RPMs, body position, burnout approach, and roll-in during staging.

  • Limit Changes During a Race:

    • Unless absolutely necessary, avoid making significant changes in the middle of a race. Stick to what has worked for you during testing and time runs.


  • Be Mindful of Rituals:

    • While not mentioned explicitly, be aware of any rituals or routines that contribute to your mental preparation. Consistency extends beyond physical actions to include mental readiness.

Remember, the key to consistency is creating a routine that works for you, sticking with it, and making adjustments based on what you learn during your racing experiences.
