    10 dry, 11 wet.

    10 is hard to explain

    11 was a lowside.

    Highside in 4 as a result of a hamfisted throttle hand.

    Thankfully only lowsides so far.

    12, 6, and 8 wet.

    I was fine in all of them, my bike did not like 6.

    But im not bitter.
    LoL that happened to me twice. I was out in the second session. But ad a 500$ trailer and a $15000 tow vehicle. But you know what, I'll be back next year and do it all again.

    Re: crashes at loudon

    All dry...

    Turn 6 x2
    Turn 1

    Two of those were in back to back practices, tucked the front and come to find out my brake master was holding pressure (broken spring). But I swapped it, parking lot ops checked it, raced, and came in 4th with a very shredded suit and bike.

    Re: crashes at loudon

    My first year t6x3 only one was completely my fault.
    last year t11 all three 100% my fault. see video..10:25...threw it on the ground pretty good. I did win a race the next day though, broken finger and all. Still stretching out the figure. Stupid figure.
    1a cold day, cold tires.

    Re: crashes at loudon

    1 (dry) - Released the front brakes too quickly which jacked the front

    2 (drizzle) - Getting on the power on exit and lowsided

    3 (wet) - Locked the front twice even before tipping in and could not recover

    11a (dry) - Hit the bump just off the apex while on the brakes. Chirped the front and lost it

    Re: crashes at loudon

    T1 rubbing tires
    6 wacky suspension settings and way too high tire pressure AND it wasn't my bike
    1A stupid white line in the cold.
    those were all this year.

    years ago, 2007 I think it was. Highside in the rain way out of 12. I'm talking like 1-2° lean angle.

    Re: crashes at loudon

    T1 - too much lean angle.
    T1A - Don't want to blame it on the white line...but...
    T2 - Rain. First race ever.
    T3 - Front tucked from bar input.
    T4 - Exhaust scraped ground and lifted rear tire...highside.
    T9 - Bar input at the end of T9.
    T12 - Shitty Pilot Power rear tire. Came out from under me.
