That looked pretty high speed.  Glad you're OK.

What happened, almost looked like a high side, but it looks too early in the turn for that to happen.

Damn Dustin,

I didn't even know you went down at RA.
Definitely a high side, but the dayglow bike just ahead of you went wide 1st...oil down?

Glad your ok man.

For some reason, the guy in front of me checked way up and I was in full boil, I got hard on the brakes, ass end came way up stunter style....  All was good until the ass end decided to pivot way around to my left side and when I let it down it slammed me down on the high side....    I finished the race without a windscreen or shield on my helmet....  I had nowhere to hide, the wind at 180 down the straight was murder.  I was just hoping no bugs or rocks got me.  I got in, had a hole down to the tendons exposed on my elbow...  Changing tires for my race in 20min, my old lady was yelling at me to go to the doctor and skip it...  Not me.    Race first, Doctor second. 


Dustin :ahhh:
