So I brought 3 guys to NJMP all from 13-20hrs away. On Sunday someone with either a green bike or green helmet ran into my buddy on his Black R6 at the fish hook and sent him to the wall.
His season is now over and he is likely to be out of work for a few weeks (fractured vertibre and cracked ribs).
1) This is A group, there is NO reason to be out of control at a trackday in this group. Anyone that has gotten the bump to A presumably knows how to ride.
2) If the unfortunate happens, which I understand we all take risks out everytime we throw a leg over our bike. Have the balls to at least come by and appologize and make sure the rider you just took out is ok.
I'm not sure which pisses me off more, the fact he got hit, or the fact the guy never came by. There is no way he didn't know he made contact.
The reason we know it was a green bike or helmet (or had green on it) is because there was paint transfer to my buddies helmet.
This was the session after lunch on Sunday...Black R6 #11 in A group.
Not sure what it is about Thunderbolt, but that it invites close passing, and trading paint, but I can tell you while I love the track, I'm not sure we will be making a return trip with the race mentality that seems to be prevelant there.
