This school was my first track day back in '97, and I have been looking forward to going back as my skills have advanced. Kinda glad I missed this one.

A good friend of mine was shortly behind the accident described here. He had been lobbying for me and r1crusher to come down for this event, but it wasn't feasible. Sad to hear of this. Again we are reminded thst the sport we love so much comes with risk. But life is not safe no matter what game you play. Godspeed to the fallen riders. Glad my friend is ok. Had he been one corner ahead, he would have had a front row seat. Or worse perhaps.
