and now.... THE INFAMOUS SILVER SURFER CRASH!!!!
Fast left kink @ VIR SOUTH July 2009
(a little background)
In the rain, Big Jim (Thunder Ace) comes over & says: Watch the puddle starting at the apex in the kink. What did I do?? RUN right through it!! Back tire is trying to pass front tire but instead of high siding me, bike lays on right side. I'm stuck on left peg of bike caught onto my suit while sliding & spinning down the hill. As told to me later, the bike is leaving a 40ft trail of sparks. I was very happy I had the tank protectors on my '07 R6. That could have possibly been a fatal crash as the protectors were ground all the way through & had scrapes on the tank. The bike & I FINALLY stop & I hop off bike, land on my feet & signal to the corner worker that bike is in middle of track. I step to the side of track, wave off a couple of riders & a CR then grab bike & pull it off track.
As I ride in the rear of crash truck, CR Greg Ahrens (sp?)(Shaggy) runs over screaming "YOU'RE THE MAN!!! YOU'RE THE F-N MAN!!! That was the most awesome crash I've ever seen!!!" I'm looking at him like WTF is wrong with him?!!!? :dunno::dunno:
I found out later that people watching from pit area right across crash location didn't see me still on the bike. My suit & the bike were the same color. Once I hopped off the bike, I was told someone watching shouted: There he is!!!! :wow::wow:
I was told people were screaming & clapping when they finally saw me. Craziest crash for me for sure.
