reality check.

Whenever I read that kind of stuff, it makes me rethink my riding. Now racing gives me an outlet to do all my crazy stuff. Anyone with the urge to go fast and crazy should take trackdays or race.

This is also a good one.

If you only knew how dangerous it is... Shit running out in front of you.. Debris in the road.. Uneven roads... Things that you don't even think about in a car can cause you some serious hurt on a bike...

It's not for everybody.. If you can handle those risks.. Go for it.. I had a pretty serious get off.. But, I love it.. The risk is worth the rush to me.. You may or may not be the same... Really hard to tell..

I know a lot of people who ride track only. I have been considering it, since I am converting my R6 to a race bike and using my CB for transportation. The track is great. No unexpected hazards will be sitting in the next turn (unless the guy in front of you has his engine blow and crashes, causing several others to crash on his oil/debris (WSBK reference)).

God Damn!:( I just read the whole thing. Reminded me of the e-mail thread about the paralyzed after a bad race accident. There for the grace of god....

thats pretty sad what happened to her, i had the same thing happen to me . 89 caddy with an 18 yr old chick didnt see me , 20 freakin feet from the intersetion , well thank god all i have is some scars and nightmares { if i was goinn 5 miles faster/ if i didnt lay the bike down / if i didnt have my bucket on /WILL MY DAUGHTER HAVE A FATHER ANYMORE ? } ITS SCARY but life is to short to sit there and wonder what if , 2 months later i got a new tl and havent stopped smiling since
