Title: hacking's incredible save
Post by: Fast4fun on May 10, 2009, 11:58:41 PM
Two years after highsiding in the same corner, Jamie Hacking made an incredible save. Video on Speedtv:

I have to say that the production of the AMA pro racing on Speed absolutely sucks. It's like watching a high school production. Even the camera's were shaking. But it was worth watching just for the save. I don't think it's in HD either. Thankfully World superbike is still well done.

+1million for WSBK.

am i the only one who heard Scott Russell YAWN during a portion of his commentary????  ridiculous.

c'mon SPEED, let's get some enthusiasm behind your pitchmen!

(also ridiculous that we're watching the race two weeks after it occured...but i digress)

That was fucking incredible, that guy was dragging on  the ground to get leverage to save it.  I had a hardcore save in 13 at R.A., stupid oil has to be slippery.  When has oil helped anybody?

That was a sick save. Amazing really. The consensus seemed to be there was water in the corner since a couple of other guys slid there too, but nothing was found by corner workers later.
