    Dave...I must share.
    I used to think dirt was for planting corn.
    I mean, why the HE-YELL would anyone want to drive a motorcycle on the dirt when there is perfectly good, nice, black, sticky pavement available?
    Then, you get out there and the bike starts sliding around and your pretty much in a panic about it.
    BUT...then you learn how to control it.


    ...and it is damned near a spiritual experience.

    YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!
    RESPECT THE 'SPIN!

    Haha that's what it looks like and the one thing I know I can't safely learn on the track is sliding all around.

    I'm seriously looking into it just have to figure out the logistics and schedule.

    Would the cornerspin school be helpful for someone with an extensive motocross background? Or is it just an introduction to bike control, sliding around on the dirt or gravel, without having to do it on a sportbike?

    It is still very helpful.
    In addition to the sliding there are various discussions about chassis dynamics and weight transfer. Besides being helpful in road racing, these lessons can be applied to flat track, supermoto, even everyday street riding.

    It seems like the more you learn...you realize there is more to BE learned.

    Give it a try, you will NOT be disappointed.
