Muffler taken off, 12 bar welded onto the frame but was rockin a hand-brake on their. Mikah Crumley came out on something else early in the day but was riding Tony D's ZX9 at the end of the day. Apparently the guys from Scooter Trash and DV8 had wrecked their bikes the day before and two guys in the crowd came forward and donated their bikes for the day. HOLY ****, these guys had ridden their bikes out and donated them to these guys for the day. i thought the riders would treat these 2 bikes especially carefully. But one of the guys ended up totalling one of the donated CBR900s and the guy who'd donated it had to get a lift home!!!

Then the bike went down hard!!!! And the dude just stood up and walked away from it all. He is a very lucky man, no matter what his name is or what team he rides for... the whole crowd thought he was DONE!!!!!!!

I'm riding a 04 cbr 1000, Tony-D is on a streetfighter zx-9, Nick Hill is riding a 929, Ryan Cramer and Ronnie Hurst are on a gsxr 1000, Micah is on the zx-9 also. The cbr 1000 has way too much power to stunt, I got a 14-55 gear setup which is real touchy, bike has no bar or handbrake on it. Ronnie and I left for lunch and Ryan and Micah were riding, Micah asked if he could ride the Cbr 1000 and I told him watch out, dont crash cause the thing will put you on your back, when me and Ronnie got back Micah had Kyle woods the 1000 and snapped the cast subframe in half along with breaking both pegs on the left side, caught on video the rear tire was a foot off the ground when he was at 12, note to Micah, dont clutch up a 170hp bike like one that has 100! Dustin Apgar blew up the 929 in the first show, Also the tranny on one of the 929's blew up so Nick Hill was left without a bike in the first event, we now got him a 954 to ride which he is setting up right now. A dude from the crowd donated his 93 900rr for Dustin to ride, midway thru his second run he loops out a spreader-heel clicker at 70+, when the bike came down he pinned the throttle and did 2 360 burnouts going 50+ then spit him off the bike, it is hands down the most spectacular crash I ever seen all on tape from multliple angles.The Aussie guy was kinda bummed as it was his main form of transportation, I think he got over it when Dustin signed and gave him his LBZ pants that were torn up from the crash. Also while Micah was doing the woods impersanation, Ryan tried to brake the world record 2 hours off the plane and flipped the gsxr 1000 and pretty much totalled it out and got some decent road rash, he was sidelined for the 1st event also and is now working on fixing the 1000 or getting another bike, note to Ryan get some sleep before trying to go 2000ft! We are on the road now headed to Sydney, the first show went great, the crowd loved every minute. Here's the results

1st Darius-usa
2nd Tony-D-usa
3rd Rob Jones- aus
4th Micah Crumley usa
