I am about to read it for the second time now and it absolutely rocks.
Awesome footage from last season used to illustrate different techniques, very well written by Andy Ibbot (the guy who coached Thomas Luthi to his world title) and some very interesting input from the GP riders them selves
So all RATS, go get this one, you will not regret it :ayyy: :ayyy: :ayyy:

Ive heard of that book. Its been rated very high in a few top class bike mags and its been talked about in high regard by some GP riders and their coaches. Wouldnt mind storing for you a copy on my pc!

I just purchased a copy of it based on your recommendation. If it's no good you'll be subjected to a lot of bitching and moaning.
Thanks for the recommendation. And for anyone who is interested I bought my copy from amazon. With postage and the conversion to USD it should be about 15 - 20 bucks cheaper than any price I could find on Australian sites.

Ive read TOTW2 several times.
Only glanced at the new book and I have to say I have picked up pointers that I can implement at the track already.

Nah:mad:
I paid $43.28 AUSD.
The thing about Twist, its principles can be applied on the road as well as the track.
From the very little I have seen of this book, it is well and truly aimed at the track rider.
