Believe me guys, I'm going to do everything I can to help my teammate, 99buellx1 , get back on the track!! He was starting to make some serious inroads on coming to grips with racing this bike and far exceded his weekend goals earlier in the day.
craig, some fiberglass repair, a new windscreen, another fairing stay(from Erik Buell Racing)and you'll be back on track. glad you werent hurt much. the first time i quit circulating on the track after falling down was the worst for my wife as well. she was white like a ghost when she tentatively inched back to the pits to find me and the bike relatively fine. she did sit by my hospital bed for 5 days one time when i got broke up in a 1 vehicle street accident 12 years ago so i can kind of understand where her reference point is. GET BACK ON AND GO!!!! tim
damn Craig. it looks like the bike was going to stand up on it's own til you rolled into it. looks like a fast crash. lucky to be as fit as you are. hang in there and jump back in. do you know what you did to upset it?(tuck the front) you have to learn from it. best wishes, tim

Yeah, that's a tough place to pass, he ran a bit deep trying to outbrake me. What you can barely see is that there is already an expert bike out in the grass right there too.
Got the bike all rebuilt. Damage ended up being: - forks - front wheel - front and rear axles - front brake master cylinder - clutch master cylinder - front fairing stay - upper and lower bodywork - helmet - suit
Was able to fix any other items that were minor damaged.
