How To Nail Turn One at Sydney Motorsport Park

How do you take Turn One at SMSP? This How To for cars and bikes will help make it even easier - and perhaps less scary. Perhaps....
Our resident SMSP Track Days and Ride Days experts Mike Navybox and Wayne Clarke talk us through the super-fast Turn 1.

I loved turn 1, but ran off there one day. Scared the hell out of me. A novice on a much faster bike than mine went up the inside, freaked out and slammed his brakes on in front of me. I was already lent in and had to sit up and straighten or hit his arse and crash. I hit the grass going very fast. But I stayed on by just touching the breaks intermittently and pulled up just before the kitty litter. Great relief. Scary. Riding slower bikes at a track day is about the only danger out of your control.

Very helpful video thanks guys Any chance of doing one with a car that has to brake before turn one?

[@259559ful]

In that case I would take the same line as the motorbikes but do all my braking in a straight line

I always thought turn 1 was fine. I reckon turn 6 is scarier
