Default Target goals w/16th notes and sextuplets

HELP!!!!!!!!!

OK, I've been religiously practicing with my trusty GNX4's drum machine and my Binder from Hell for a while now, and I've seen better results than I thought was possible honestly.

Now, I'm continually working on my technique for speed, clarity, definition, and note tone....

My short-term goal is to play along with the solo to Bark at the Moon, one of Jake E Lee's finer moments on record.

I have the beginning part very close to being nailed down up to the ending flurry of sextuplets....I'm nowhere close (for Chuck lol!) about 40 BPM's away.

What is a good realistic tempo for a classic rock/80's metal kinda player??

I've came up with this:

16th notes: 180 BPM
sextuplets: 135 BPM (that is FLYING!!)

Also, for Kevin, can you post a good exercise/workout specifically for sextuplets, please

The previous picking exercise I posted I've worked up to about 125 cleanly both ascending and decending through the 5 shapes and I do each shape for 5-minutes each with a small break between them.

Thanks in advance...
