    I was behind him and I pushed him.. Shhhh don't tell any one.. LOL


    If you look at the vid closely you will see that he was caring a very steep lean angle and his body was up right almost leaning up.. Too much lean angle for the body position and speed. Thats my 2ยข

    The boy has balls and once he learns to get off the bike he's going to be fast!

    Take a look!..

    Roy is actually caring a lower lean angle then I am and Im going much faster thru the corner!! But his body is on the other side of the bike!

    Cameras on the track kick ass!! this is a great lesson in getting off the bike

    Agreed. Granted cold tires can cause you to crash, many times riders blame the crash on tires when a better body position could have prevented the mishap. But that's why we do track days so we can learn these things and become better riders. Better to have this happen on the track than on the street with cars, curbs, etc. that can permanently hurt you.

    roy sorry about your mishap, that's definitely a what the hell moment. Bill is right though, you're fast but need to get off the seat more. I noticed that when I was behind you.

    By the way, thanks for uploading this video, i'm on camera for almost 4 minutes, lol
