Heavyweight Superbike - 5th Place


Sunday the 4th:
SuperTwins - 3rd Place

Ran my best lap on the final lap of my final race Sunday.

I was very happy with that as my goal was to run a mid 40.

And my season ender:


Low side in turn 4 at Blackhawk Farms.
Bike went over the outside curbing and caught some air, did a couple cartwheels and landed hard.

I was running in second at the time, and feeling good, front just pushed after I tipped it in, I tried to hold it, but couldn't.

Believe me guys, I'm going to do everything I can to help my teammate, 99buellx1 , get back on the track!!
He was starting to make some serious inroads on coming to grips with racing this bike and far exceded his weekend goals earlier in the day.

craig,
some fiberglass repair, a new windscreen, another fairing stay(from Erik Buell Racing)and you'll be back on track. glad you werent hurt much. the first time i quit circulating on the track after falling down was the worst for my wife as well. she was white like a ghost when she tentatively inched back to the pits to find me and the bike relatively fine. she did sit by my hospital bed for 5 days one time when i got broke up in a 1 vehicle street accident 12 years ago so i can kind of understand where her reference point is. GET BACK ON AND GO!!!!

Thanks Tim.
I had been feeling pretty good that day, had turned a 1:18, and was figuring out where to pick up some more speed.



Crash series from Gron4 photography is up on their site, check it out, starts on page 2.

damn Craig. it looks like the bike was going to stand up on it's own til you rolled into it. looks like a fast crash. lucky to be as fit as you are. hang in there and jump back in. do you know what you did to upset it?(tuck the front)
you have to learn from it.
best wishes,
tim

Looks like the guy behind you had his own pucker moment when overtook on the last turn of the first lap.

Yeah, that's a tough place to pass, he ran a bit deep trying to outbrake me.
What you can barely see is that there is already an expert bike out in the grass right there too.

Got the bike all rebuilt.
Damage ended up being:
- forks
- front wheel
- front and rear axles
- front brake master cylinder
- clutch master cylinder
- front fairing stay
- upper and lower bodywork
- helmet
- suit


Was able to fix any other items that were minor damaged.
