Whew, glad to hear the guy will be ok. Typical biker.. "how's the bike?"... typical racer.. "how were my lap times?"

Glad he's doing ok. I've run off turn one a couple times. That's a fast corner entry. Plenty of room off track but it's really bumpy and rutted.

I've run off in 1 a couple times and lowsided there once, it's NOT fun. Glad he's ok, and I totally understand wanting to know lap times. I ran my PB and promptly lowsided in T1, when I got back into the pits everybody who walked up to me and asked if I was ok got the answer of "I broke a 1:30!"
Oh and when you're racing and someone goes down the first thought is "I hope he's ok" which is immediately followed by "hey, I just moved up one!"

I went down in T1 at JGP while leading Chaz and Len. They do hot pick-ups in one, so I was sitting on my bike by the berm waiting to get picked up and they both went past me, and waved. That's why Len is a proud member of TVR!
