Was our first visit to HPT, I think we were able to hunt down the angles. All photos should be posted by Wednesday at the latest, more than likely by tomorrow night.
In the meantime here's some teasers.

Who is that #1 plate getting crossed up with Ron Hix?
I think his name is mark Nudelman...(sp?)
Great shots as always! Great to see you're back in the game.
Wooohooo....I made the teasers. Now I'm "somebody". :biggrin:
Yeah that is Mark Nudelman. He knew he got in there too hot and lost the front. He apologized and everything is cool. I don't hold any hard feelings toward Mark. Stuff like this happens in racing. We all make mistakes. I'm just glad I was not injured. And of course, it just sucks that I have to rebuild that bike after it took me so long to get it setup to go racing.

Wait till you see the whole crash....I think it was the first time I put the 8.5 frames per second to work!

You are such a tease !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad both you guys were OK after that. It looks a little like the Cardenas accident at Fontana.
Impressive job on your part Ron for stepping up to EX and placing well!

See ya at Blackhawk! :thumb:
Outstanding job guys. Gonna have to get all of them I think.
Just got myne from Gron4 yesterday.. process was smooth and easy. Awesome pics guys!
Good series of crash pictures even though I wish it wasn't me. Ron was truly a gentleman considering that I took him out. He even came up to me the next day at the riders meeting to talk. I am really glad that neither one of us was hurt!
Looking at the first picture it looks like I may have glanced the white line which would explain why the front washed so quickly. I was actually going slower that I normally did into that corner knowing that I was going to have to cut it sharply. Either way it was certainly my mistake.
I learned from another thread that Ron just advanced to expert. I think that this was a great move on his part and that he will do very well.
Nude
Mark Nudelman
TrackAddix!
+1 for both racers and how they handled this. I saw Nude in the pits after the accident and he was truly torn up about the incident. Mark's very much a "stand up" :thumb: guy and a clean racer so it was totally surprising to all of us pitted around the TrackAddix guys to hear of the incident. Glad both of the guys walked away okay - especially seeing the air Ron got.
That being said, what an awesome set of pics!! It would be a surprise if RRW doesn't pick these up for the Crash Page. Great job guys!
Man awesome pictures! I'm definitely going to buy a couple! So many good ones...
