yeah, I emailed the pro 6 staff just to offer my sympathy. They are really nice people, and although I don't know them very well, I would bet this is like losing a family member to them.

it's a tight group up there, and Pro 6 takes safety very seriously. that has to make it hurt that much more...

got some updated info from a friend of a friend. All it really adds to the story is that the accident occurred approximately half way down the back straight, after Turn 4.

(track map here http://www.calabogiemotorsports.com/display28)

As the name on the map suggests, T4 is "easy," and it's basically WOT through there. The guy who came upon the accident said he came around the bend and saw 4 bikes and 4 bodies laying motionless in the middle of the track :-/

'bogie staff will have riders pull off the track under some red-flag situations to get the ambulance rolling sooner. I have to believe they did that here...
