Level 2 of our Rider Development Programme is typically designed for intermediate group riders who have attended a number of trackdays before or for anyone that has attended level 1 of RDP. It builds on the basic, fundamental principles that we teach in level 1 of RDP. After a recap of level 1, we'll then focus on braking and throttle control.

The afternoon session will introduce you to advanced steering techniques, helping you to turn the bike into the corners faster than ever before.

Typical day

Signing on and safety briefing
When you arrive at the circuit you will be assigned your instructor who will be dedicated to you and two other students exclusively for the day. You'll be fast-tracked through signing on before being escorted to your own garage where you will receive a private briefing covering everything you'll need to know about the day.

This will also give your instructor a chance to find out from you if there are any specific things that you are looking to work on or any goals you're trying to achieve from the course. If you don't know - don't worry. They'll help you identify the areas where you can improve and help you achieve a level of riding that you never thought possible.

Sighting laps
All participants must carry out sighting laps on trackday events. However, with your own instructor to follow, you can be sure that you start the day working on the correct lines.

One to one tuition
Each rider will receive approximately 80 minutes of one to one tuition with an instructor which will be split into four sessions - two 20 minute on circuit instruction sessions and two 20 minute debriefing sessions in the pit lane.

Group classroom sessions
Throughout the day there will be a further three classroom sessions (maximum of three riders per group) covering the techniques outlined below.

Practice sessions
You also have the opportunity to practice what you have learned throughout the day in a further four 20 minute practice sessions on circuit helping you master the disciplines covered in each course.

End of day de-briefing
At the end of the day, your instructor will carry out a de-briefing with you where you will receive an analysis sheet to take away with you detailing how you have progressed throughout the day and areas to work on in the future.

Recap of RDP Level 1 A recap of RDP Level 1 will ensure that you have a solid foundation knowledge of your racing lines, body positioning and overtaking procedures in place before moving onto the fundamental areas in Level 2.
Braking and throttle control In this section of the programme we will look at the correct use of power and the brakes. We'll help you to find the best braking point on the track and progress onto how you use the throttle to balance the bike.
Introduction to advanced steering In introduction to advanced steering we'll focus on how to turn the bike in faster using counter steering and weighting on the pegs. Combine this with correct braking and throttle control and you'll be lapping faster than ever before.
