I guess the question would be answered if everyone who doesn't use it, removed their rear brake pedal at TA4....

Purely in the interest of science

Laptime with then without?

Volunteers???

Am I being daft now???


I volunteer, I don't use it on the track at all.

I only use it for slow u-turns to balance the bike and smooth out the throttle and when I'm at traffic lights or a hill start etc.
