A Push-Joe? Say it isn't so. That's some crappy video. Maybe they could post a transcript. ;-)

My buddy ran this today with his bike.

Cal Neske Exhibition Powersports 666 Boulder CO USA 2008 Honda RR 1000 Yes

I didn't get to check it out... [Bang]

[dirtrulz]

Ever since they paved the whole thing it just doesnt really interest me any more. They need to split up the times as pre and post pavement. I really miss watching them drift the corners.

[funkymonkey1111]

that was an unbelievable run

[asmo]

I hate the inane blabbering of announcers at races. Its one of the reasons I stopped watching superbike stuff.. Just shut the hell up, show us some dash cam footage, and if you want to be REALLY awesome put up some cool graphics showing us current gear, rpm, speed, temp and g-force in real time.

"yep... they got my number" as he would say [Beer]

[streetglideok]

Oh hell. I think I got pics of him up in the switchbacks where I worked. I'll go thru them and if I got some I'll post them and/or send them to you if you like.

I looked and I did get pics of him. Cant miss his bike or his outfit,lol.

One of our own(and a good friend of mine), HCR25, crashed his bike pretty hard at the left hander at Picnic Grounds. He was choppered out with non-life threatening injuries. More info can be found here:

Damn... I'm glad he's cool. I've went around the track with him a few times and gave me great advice and help. Really nice guy all around.

Another video inside the car of #208 Redbull. You can catch a glimpse of me just after the 6min mark as he came to my corner.

Cool, the guy who I brought to help me didn't get pics of him in the corner though. Here is some more from that morning. Some I took until things got hopping.

Damn that sucks, he was just at my house last week picking up a gopro to video his run.

Hope he heals quick.

that is amazing. his heartrate at 7:00 is 188bpm. it's just astounding to watch that run.

[USAFGopherMike]

Those announcers are fucking horrible. Couldn't listen to it. How many times could that one guy say the same thing twice?
