    Thanks for the input! I'm a total Nick and Ken information junkie, which is why I am on the extreme outside of the bus stop and T1. I can hear them yelling at me everytime I'm not using all of the track :bounce:, which is why I had to ask haha, sometimes it gets foggy up there :der:... Kind of cool to hear that JD follows a similar principle. I can't wait to go back and ride around again!!

    lol.. yea, its hard to stick it in your mind to hold it wide open on the first part because its really blind, i was waiting until i could see over that then doing it, even then i still picked up some time in that spot. I think my buddy dave said he was scared to watch me go through there from the paddock :fear:

    I had a close one going through that sweeper. I attempted to pull an outside pass and after wheelying off of that first ledge and then hitting a tar strip with both tires that slid me about a foot or two from the outside grass. Needless to say I stood it up and didn't make the pass and then directly pitted in to clean my shorts.

    Watched my buddy do the same thing... Watching was bad enough because I seen him go off track but then you loose sight of them as they go behind the hills... Needless to say he made it back on the track and pitted... As he was pulling into our pit; I pulled out a clean pair of boxers and waived them at him.. almost dropped the bike from laughter!:lmao:

    This was not edited by me. Also it cancels out for me saving that crash.
