Post by: CCS_106 on August 18, 2003, 06:04:54 AM
Congradulations to CCS am 454 Florida rider Greg Melka for making the Crash Page in Road Racing World.  As a regular poster to this board I am giving him an award!  

The what happens when the fast moving object meets the rolling chicane award!  Hey Greg your famous now!

Very cool pics...Although I'm sure it wasn't too cool at the time!  This is right up there with Purk's highside pic.  Congrats, I guess  ;D!

Hope you are ok!

 I wonder if 253 knew how close to clobbered he was? Noble job for not taking him with you.

253 Jorge Rodriguez is fast.. i was trying to make a pass for the lead in heavy wt supersport on my 600 and he shut the door.. rubbed his rear tire for some time and yes, did all i could to not take both of us out. Hardly a bruise believe it or not.. could not have asked for a less pain for such a spectacular crash..
Thanks for the cudos Dave.. i think ;D
