That makes Shinya Nakano's 200mph crash at Mugello in 2004 seem quite sedate.

That's Jason McVickar. He's been at the salt for at least 10 years. Really Great Guy. He broke his knee cap and had some rash left, but otherwise was fine. Big wake up call, though for everyone who thinks riding a busa or 12 over 200 is "pretty safe". They think that they ran over some debris and cut the rear tire. Lucky it didn't land on him.He was at the Texas Mile last month with Scott Guthrie and rode one of Scott's other blown Busa's a couple times.

My kinda guy! get after it! I took a trip over the bars at 120 on a road track. Thought the same things. "this is gonna leave a mark, F#CK this hurts!!!"
Hopefully I'll be able to afford a few track days next year. $100k in medical bills and 4 months of healing plus rehab kinda slowed this Old Guy abit. Just a lttle bit.
