moto89 0 #8 April 11, 2007 Nice pictures bud. I really want to get back into racing, but after my bad get off last season I'm not sure I can afford it... Here's my last race... Coming down the longest straight on the track I threw a rod, dumping every drop of oil right onto the rear tire. I dipped into the next corner at about 120mph and before I even had a chance to relize I was sliding. As my luck would be, it was a banked corner, so both the bike and I flew off the top of the banking around 70mph. I did my best impression of something resembling a sit/backfly and cleared about 50 feet of weeds and dirt maybe getting 6 or so feet high, landing on piece of another track. The bike on the other hand wasn't quite so gracefull. It caught the dirt a few times tumbling end over end about the same distance I flew. Needless to say pretty effing torn up. Less talking, more flying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fozz 0 #9 April 11, 2007 Ouch!!! well I know too well whats its like. I pitched it in t 6 at Laguna in 94 15 months,plate and 8 screws later I walk fine then in 98 lost the front in 14 at T-hill shattered rt collar bone and again plate 8 screws later its fine.

moto89 0 #10 April 12, 2007 I'm kinda trading racing for jumping too, only a little more abruptly..... Laguna is an amazing track, very technical. 6 definitely isn't the best place to go off there.Less talking, more flying. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
