Well...I see what you're saying about the tires...I do pretty much trust em....so didn't mean to actually throw that out there like'hey you guys...don't depend on grip'...ya..it may have sounded like that...I didn't mean it like that.But you did mention off camber and all.That corner is fairly well 'angled'...UNTIL..the very end.just before it starts to straighten out.If you're not lined up and in the pocket when it does that,you will run wide.Which is what I did.For whatever reason.Had I been moving slower...perhaps the posted limit,whatever distracted me MAY have been moot.I probably will never know.But I am gonna do as ya said....sometime ahead.Drive up there(or ride again) and actually stop and look at it....see exactly what's up with that thing.It never DOES feel quite right ending that radius.I don't know what it is really,but it tightens very fast at a certain point.Yet it LOOKS very normal when taking it.I've ridden it many times.It's a series of "s's"....ending with that exit.So you enter above...at say...55,60...lean in...make the first couple of turns,then it ends with that last left hander.But by then your speed has increased...so it's quite decieving really.I forget that damn thing tightens up almost everytime I go on that one road there.This time I paid for forgetting.I've made that turn plenty of times....
I saw that vid....that's some wicked shit right there.Can't imagine missing a turn at 170.....geez.
I still don't know if I got pinned under my bike or what(I suspect I was).I had fuel all over my clothes...I know that.And I don't know how long I was laying there either...quite a while before anyone showed up.You would have thought ONE of those cars would have noticed SOMETHING as I went by...ya know?
