In the Total Control book, Lee Parks says: "your outside arm is relaxed and not fighting for control with your inside arm, and you're looking through the turn to the exit point while keeping your head perpendicular to the road. Your inside foot is tucked up and out of the way. Your inside arm is doing all the steering. And your centerline is to the inside of the bike's centerline."

Looks like you nailed all of them.

Thanks guys.
I know i need to tuck more on the straight, but I didn't have the balls to go all out, never even used 6th, so it really wasn't slowing me down.
I did get all the way behind the windscreen a few laps. It's cool like a complete void of wind.

I learned early to get my feet up and out of the way... i drug toe slider before knee slider
