I was going to stay out of this but I got pissed off when someone bastardized my picture post by calling the kid a dumb****. The whole thing was an accident. It is not like the kid intentionally ran into you. I know you are pissed that you were hit, but I was standing right there when it happened. The guy on the honda tried to stop but couldn't, and there was nowhere to go. That is when the accident happened. Everyone can play the blame game till the next stunt show, but its not going to replace the bikes or heal the injuries. I can understand you wanting to let off some frustaration, but it isn't going to change things. Now if the same thing happens again with the same person then by all means ream him a new one, but until then cut the kid a little slack. Like I said I was standing right there, and as far as the kid being out of control in the picture, you were both flying around that was right after the contact was made.

Here's how I see it... yea it was an accident, but an accident that could've been totally avoided...He could have waited his turn like everybody else but instead he was impatient... now not only has he hurt himself and destroyed his bike but also injured some else and destroyed their bike too... It sux cause J.C.'s hurt he's gotta fix his bike and it's gonna come out of his pocket and he wasn't even the one at fault... someone wrecked into him

I also agree on the whole split practices

 

The F4i was right in front of me when J.C. started down. I could tell what J.C was doing and going to do. When the F4i started going J.C. was by the middle entrance getting set to do the circle. I don't know why F4i started his run but he should have waited.
If the kid was new to events then he should have watched to see how riders use the lanes.
This is a hard lesson learned and it shows how disorganized these events get. Split practice for Pro's and Amatuers is a must and a riders meeting before anyone gets on the track.
This isn't the first time this as happened. I remember at the first stunt frenzy when someone nailed Ant-Mirror Image from behind when he was doing an endo during warm up.
