So, is plowing into someone at the start of a race reason for a Mr. Potato head vote or, is it stalling your bike on the front row and getting plowed?

Both could be in the running, Need more details, have either of these indivduals been involved in this sort of act before?
I managed to hit a wall head first in my VERY FIRST race EVER. Broke my collar bone in 2 spots....I hit the wall by turning about 60 degrees to much exiting the bus stop and running strait into the wall. Seems pretty foolish to me. :lmao: I actually have picture from 2 different angles as well. 8)
everybody has stalled on the start at one point especially at daytona remember Scott Russell . that's why they stagger the grid .i don't think its the third row that gets you i think its five or six rows back when the bikes are really moving.the first couple of races that ran my 748 with the rs transmission i wore the starter out .that's scary stuff as far as turning to much thats why walls and bikes don't mix they can't make tracks safe enough if it can happen it will lucky it was just a collar bone marc
I wonder if we could turn this into some kind of voting opportunity. There's voting on American Idol, and Survivor contestants get to vote. Everyone can sumit their choice for the Potato award and the person with the most votes "wins". Or Guy can give us his top 3 choices, when it's time, and we could vote for our favorite. How does that sound?
Woah now, the Mr. Potato Head Award is a contest whose rules and selection process are at the sole discretion of Mr Potato Head.
We can float some ideas but along with the Distinctive Honor of wearing the coveted Mr. Potato Head patch on his leathers (Thanks Alexa) Guy has the Exclusive Privilege of selecting the next Honorable Mr Potato Head.
So bundle up those ideas and flood Guys mailbox, I'm sure he could use some good ideas. :biggrin:
Exactly Hawk, Mr. Pototo Head his bad self picks the winner........... no voting, but bribes are accepted if I recall!!
By the way Mr. Potato Head Guy, pm me your address as I have something to send you.

BTW, you keepin an eye on Mr Potato Head, Is his catetaker taking good care of him? I haven't had the opportunity to check out your handy work in person yet.
Hey, I have a story for you.... A blonde, a lawyer, and a priest walk into a bar and the bartendar says: "Hey is this a joke?"
Barb, your career as a stand up is over before it began. I could hear the groans from all over the country on that one. ::) :biggrin:

I'm fine. Bike is not. Forks sent to Lithium for inspection.
