Ouch...03 R1 got on the gas too soon

 with cold tires and the camera man followed him off the track

Yeah, and that target fixation will get you every time.

This is why you always have to remember your Keith Code on the track. Don't waste your $10 watching someone else crash.

Cold tires is the key word.

Looks like it might have been the 1st lap by the grouping of the riders and there speed

gah! Why'd the camera guy follow him off? ? ? ? ?

strange the guy followed him off the track,

Great crash! And he was lucking enough to flip into the grass for a soft landing, too!

k.. I had to watch that again. I gotta say, if I was the camera guy I might have done the same thing.

If I was swinging through a right turn, feeling the momentum pulling me left and at 60-70mph I saw >THIS< right in front of me, the grassy spot may have been the best option at the time. Who knows which way that thrashing stallion could have jumped!

+1. I watched it again and agree. With only a second to respond I would have gone for the grass.

Rear tire broke loose and he chopped the throttle instead of riding it out.....high-side every time.
