Lowside Full series of Pics (many pics, slow loading)
Thanks goes out to Jack of www.sliderphoto.com He owns these the rights to these pictures, and NOT me!
While the low side was 100% my fault
let me explain what happened when I pushed the bike past traxxion.
First Pic. shows you how I entered the turn.
No brakes, full lean
The front end was bottomed out.
Because I was on the stops, I am guessing I never felt the bike push.
I have saved a drifting front end many of times, but I may have been out of my mindset at that time and I defenantly never felt the bike push on me....
Look at the black line I am leaving with the front tire at this point!!!!
At this point I have given up an saving it...
And Yes, up to this point I thought I could
Dumb thing to do...
Get away from any bike crashing...
I was pissed I had crashed, and I knew the damages the pea gravel was about to do. I opted to save the bike at risk to myself.
If I had not held on, the bike what have started a barrel roll.
Lucky from me it did and the bike would be okay

Wow, you were holdin' on to that like it was a bull in a rodeo! I would've pushed that thing away the moment I was slidin' on the pavement. ****** bike parts are cheaper than medical bills.

after crashing that time Xian gaave up racing for the rest of the weekend.... and after crashing twice and having a little growth problem he managed to not break any thing on eather of the two bikes or himself ... prolly the worst thing he did was give himself a mild concussion and twist his ankle (which he made worse by trying to carry a tool box)

Those pics are killer! I'll get to do that the next race weekend at Blackhawk. I found me a R6 for a good deal. All set up and a clean title so i can get my image riding up to Ryan's level.

And Dan, be realistic, there will be NO competition between me on an R6 and you on your 7. Unless you wanna play "Hopefully i can still see his tailsection!"
