try it like hte MSF exercise, thrown a marker and the ground and use that as your stopping point. and try stopping as quickly and safely as you can.
my guess is that most people here and in general do alot more street miles then track.
and i tell my students practice practice practice, don't make the emergancy your practice.

How is it my ring and pinky are in the way? First, they are linked together in my Spidi gloves. I then have the choice of two or four only. My brake lever doesn't got to the grip - not even close, even with a fist full. So, how is it my fingers are "in the way"? Your brakes need some work if your lever goes to the grip enough to pinch your fingers...
It's difficult to practice a panic moment, or even an unpredictable stop. You can't possibly do it with a marker that you know exists. The best way would be to have someone else out on a course with you initiating a stop through a signal.
