Hey Peanut,
 Glad your alright. I tucked my front in turn 5. No warning just BAM!!! I'm nursing bruised ribs, and stiff neck. Weired the way it happened,maybe somthing on track, maybe me. Get well soon-3 weeks till RR.

OUCH!  Glad to hear you're all right!

Hope Lizzi will be okay, too.
CCS AM 815... or was that 158?

Wow i know how you feel.  i made a move to go under someone and couldn't quite make it, so i was hard on the brakes so i wouldn't clip them.  (ryan patterson i think.) there's some rumors out there that i got tapped a bit 1st but i don't know that's true.  either way it was a racing incident. unfortunately for me the guy behind motorcrossed over me, that's where most of my injuies came from.  i've been told he had nowhere to go.  anyway i don't think it was anything on the track in my case, it was just my fault it seems.

heal up quick.  (this is keith right?)

glad your alright peanut. no one likes to see a fellow racer get hurt.. i had a good get off at the last summit event in t10. i ended up blasting my ribs really bad. no breaks, but couldnt sleep or breathe deep for over a week.  when it happened i couldnt breathe at all, but i did regain my wind.  when i go through t10 now it feels like there are 8 million bumps in that turn just waiting for me to run over. ;)

i also hope the lady that was air lifted is alright. we were all out looking for her kids after they made the announcement.

Most of my friends call me Kevin, on a good day ::)
 Breathing is overated .I'm waiting for Steve to send me film of my mishap to determine what I did wrong.
 We both had onboard camera's.

Whew...just minor flesh wounds, Ned...

Hey Kim,
 Those were the same ribs I landed on in Supercamp. The only good thing is I'm not laughing as much ;D ;D

We can fix that!!! :D ;D

Guess those ribs have been thoroughly "tenderized".

Yup Dave interesting how those can't be called minor but I guess your prospective changes in this sport.  Considering what could have been and what unfortunately has happened to some others recently, these are minor no doubt about it.

I haven't seen your name anywhere lately, are you going to race Barber?

Sorry about that Kevin.   :-[

Did you use the Blurred Vision guys, I heard their vids are excellent.

LOL...minor...yeah, it's all about perspective.

Barber?  In October.  Raced Daytona and won a couple races with AHRMA.  Missed some stuff early in the year because of a family issue, and I'm making a little return to AMA this year.  Spectators are more important to my generation of funds for pediatric cancer research, so more AMA races will help.

I've been here and there for schools.

Peanut,
 Yes. They put cameras all over my bike . Recorded everything. I even forgot to turn it off,so I got the ride back to the paddock too. Steve used his own camera. I'll let you know how it turns out.
