I'm always nervous when I see guys standing around with their backs to running machinery. Especially machinery that moves as fast as race cars can.

I move machines all around the country and am astonished at the number of people that will walk/stand under 30 or 40 tons hanging off a crane.

As close as he was to that, he would have likely still got clipped but maybe not so hard.

Back in the day I saw a Harley drag bike slam into the Christmas tree at old Fremont. The Harley guys were scary seemed like they always had a high speed wobble or out of control at the start. Hope hes okay.

I'd like to say " unbelievable " , because that sound so much more dramatic than " happens all the time ".
But this does happen a lot.
When all it takes to go 170 m.p.h is the 4500 bucks it takes to buy a fair used Gixxer , all bets are off.

We have had a bunch of rice rocket racers start showing up at my local track every Saturday for the past two months. So far three of them have wrecked their bikes. Speed, young age and inexperience spell disaster.
