Did you hit the Air Fence at Blackhawk Farms Raceway?  Racing or track day.

Please contact Tom at Blackahwk Farms,tmenke@blackhawkfarms.com, he'd like to set you up for an interview about it's safety.

Thanks in advance from Tom!!!

I have not had the pleasure... damnit!

[Super Dave]

Me either.

What about if you didn't hit the airfence, but it would have been much better if you had? I remember seeing Jeff K. hit the bare tires in front of me in turn 4 and it looked like it hurt a whole lot! I am glad they have air fence there now!

[xb9racer]

Same here. I missed the air fence by that much this year!

[weggieman]

well damnit.......aim better!

[HAWK]

how does that go again, look where you want to go.... oh wait, never mind.

Me either.  

Dave, you don't hit airfences...you avoid them all together!  Wasn't it you who I saw on the other side of the wall in T1 at Topeka? (not that I recall there actually being an airfence at that spot)

[Super Dave]

Yeah, I kind of ride tracks to mitigate risk.  Some long stories about Topeka, but there was an opportunity to use the faster T1/T2 and reduce risk...

I crashed in Turn Alpha, yes.  Threw Jason's bike over the wall.  My approach to the corner saved me, and I was off my regular line.  So, I do feel lucky.  I went over the wall to get the bike going.  I did get it running down there fifteen feet below the track surface, but it took a truck to get it up and out to Jason for the rest of the weekend.  Race was going so well before then.  Kind of embarrassing.

Sorry Bernie, a dwarf and a midget at the same time doesn't really qualify as a 3-way.
