New action shots. LRRS weekend #6

A few of my friends had cameras at the track last weekend during the races & were snapping pics of all my racin buddies. Figured I'd share some galleries.

Good jump off the line, no wheelies here.

Drag race to turn 1 behind fast girl Cynthia Bisagne, #720

Turning into turn 3 just ahead if my friend Scott (824) and teammate David (484).

mid-corner T3. Good shot of the new, but not quite totally finished paint job.

And as a finale.... Here's a link to my buddy Dan's crash sequence.

Hit the double arrows a few times to get the whole thing. He came into the braking zone directly behind a slower rider (#262) and didn't expect him to get on the brakes as hard & as early as he did... so he had to get on the binders as hard as he could to avoid stuffing his front tire in the guy's exhaust pipe.... The first picture was taken moments after he lifted the rear wheel about a foot off the ground. First it swung around to the right, then it came back down, snapped to the left and that's when my buddy started snapping pics.

Had the bike pitched him to the right & away from the grass, it's likely neither of us would have had a good day after that... He was relatively unhurt in the crash & was able to race the next day after sourcing out a new front end he borrowed from his teammate.
