The Master
Racing Course is designed for those of you who want to race competitively or
who are currently racing or attending extreme track days and want personalized
instruction to realize your full potential. The most advanced of all the DRE
courses, each expert instructor oversees a small group of three students
maximum -- you're guaranteed to get one-on-one instruction on the track as well
as in-depth reviews between sessions. Because the Master Racing Course gets to
the heart of extreme racing techniques, participants should already have
attended approximately ten track days.
The Master
Racing Course uses the latest
Ducati Superbike 1199 Panigale S: the bike that sets the most extreme benchmark ever and its arrival represents one of the most historic moments in Ducati’s incredible Superbike history.
You'll be able to ride it as few did before youand safely push your limits like
never before. And just to prove it, data acquisition equipment enables the
retrieval of data from at least one one of your track sessions so your
performance can be evaluated and compared to that of your instructor's.
If you're
ready to get ahead of the competition, the Master Racing Course is ready for
you.
Special on-board tests
As a Master
Racing course participant, you'll take part in a test on a 1199 Panigale specially
fitted with the 2D professional Data Acquisition system. The test will provide
you with detailed rider/bike performance data that can be used to compare
against your instructor's data.
The Data
Acquisition system records a host of information, including throttle valve
opening, engine RPM, vehicle speed, lap time, suspension travel, brake
pressure, tyre temperature and race lines taken.
At the end
of the test, the data will be retrieved from the Data Acquisition system and an
electronic engineer will analyse and review the results with you.
The Master
Racing course is designed for highly experienced motorcyclists who have already
attended a track course, regularly race or attend track days. You will be
divided into groups of three (up to a maximum of 12 riders), with each group
led by an expert instructor. The bike used in this course is the 1198 SP
Superbike.
You will
have 6 on-track practice sessions alternating with theory-based input and
advice. Of the 6 track sessions, 2 will be exclusively reserved for the Master
Racing Course (not shared with the Racing Level II course), allowing you to get
the most of the 1199 Panigale on the track.
The
required gear includes leathers, gloves, boots and a full-face helmet. If you
don't own any of these items, you can hire them when you purchase a course
online (see the 'Clothing requirements' section for complete
details on the required gear).
You must
have a motorcycle licence (without engine displacement restrictions) to
participate in the Master Racing Course.
