Hi guys,
So after tailing Justin for a few laps fair stuck under his rear bumper Nascar style (not touching of course) I have a severe complaint about the amount of brake I had to ride to achieve it.
Any tips?
1. I have been told in the past that running half throttle at full rpm will kill the engine
2. Getting out of the draft, but that then slows us both down and blocks the track.
What to do?

Allan, just in case you are reading this and are offended this is not meant to be taken seriously.

I'm tipping that the safety is a pretty big concern at over 180kph with nothing around you. Getting bumped is not the most comfortable feeling at that speed.

It was pretty fun in stock Honda in the USA.

I got a bump coming onto the straight at Lakeside and without a big correction would have been in the fence.

Bumping through/in/out of corners is a different story.

To clarify, It is illegal under CAMS rules not "Phillip Island"
You may "draught" but you may not make contact........pushing.
