bingo, stay out of entrances and exits of turns. Middle of the turn is a better location.

If there's one thing that I've learnt by being around the track, it's that damned near anything can happen. I've seen bikes jump the pit lane wall not once, but twice.

I've been around cars on the track too. Even the idiot drifters, who tear the crap out of the track and surrounding ground, don't do crap like that guy did.

Smooth move, fuckstick. Consider taking the bus from now on.

True - it looks like he did what any inexperienced driver would do: he hit the brakes rather than trying to steer his way out of it.

Cars freak me out trackside, they aren't nearly as predictable as motorcycles are when they are out of control. Cars seem to violate the laws of physics sometimes. It just seems to be, in the motorcycle crowd anyway, they think they are "safe" on the inside of a corner. At the entry and exit (and on a public road with two way traffic, each entry IS an also an exit) nothing should be considered "safe" with cars.

The driver was certainly a toolbag. But, the number of spectators probably didn't help for distractions and show-boating. Add a few photographers with business cards [a la KillBoy] and you have people that are working hard to "get a good shot."

It's why I don't like riding much on the street... and why I wouldn't recommend anyone park where that bike was parked. It wasn't the parked guy's fault anymore than dressing like a hooker makes it the woman's fault for getting raped. But, there are some situations where planning ahead wouldn't get you in trouble in the first place.

I didn't even see brake lights... like he just thought he'd spin out and do a donut or some shit...

I thought I saw a flash as the ass end went around but I could be wrong

sure as hell didn't ht them too hard as the tires didn't lock up... but yeah I think you're right

Yeah, he nailed the brakes.

1) Pontiac owners club? Fail :lol:
2) Photographers thinking they have no effect on people's behavior? Fail :lol:
3) Driver fucking up the corner entry, and then trying to "save face" by adding a little slide to his exit? Fail :lol:

He apparently felt he was coming in too hot and nailed the brakes after entering the turn, thus upsetting the suspension. Then, on exit, he stomped the gas, thus sliding around since his rear end was already lightened by the previous stomping of the brakes.
