This ones my new background :-p

Nice exhaust heat in the frame...

Plenty more, but a lot are multiple shots from the same position as you can tell.

I guess nobody watched to the end of the video then? You were really tanking-it. Ooops, looked big- write off? Sorry man.

Wow --- What happened there man? Were you on the gas early? or did it get unsettled just going through the S turns? How fast were you going when the rear slid? Didnt really seem like you countered... Post pics - hope the damage isnt too bad - looks like a new front bumper / radiator ish

That video doesnt show much. I countered, but too late. Its hard to tell whats going on also, due to the wide-angle lens.

Long story short, entered the corner hotter than usual, and trail-braked too hard. Newbie mistake.

Only $4200, half of which is labor. Cheaper than 2thextreme's repairs. Go figure lol. It was mostly cosmetic, minus a busted core support.
