Crow… Go with Clarke Technical Studies and a metronome. Set it at 100bps and learn to play all of the Study 1 and 2 exercises. When they are proficient, move up 5-10bps and do it again… before long your fingers will be flying! A pretty cool trick that one of my teachers gave me, (that he says he got from his lessons with Bobby Shew) is to learn to play the exercises with your left hand also, this trains both sides of your brain and subsequently makes playing with your right had easier! Good luck.
