    I don't know about you guys, but the thing that bothers me most with the kink is the dip in the middle of it. Going through a turn at full tilt in 5th gear while fully leaned over I can handle. Doing it with my suspension bottoming out because it is so soft to handle the rest of the bumps makes me back off a bit.

    :stupid:
    After crashing there, and seeing two other guys do the same (Telly Steimel and Doug Duane) I think the kink should be the first thing re-paved. Luckily all three of us walked away. The bikes weren't so lucky!

    That would be the aforementioned giant pothole that used to be there.

    Apparently, they just paved over it.

    I remember Frank Trombino blew a dunlop slick going through the kink and that was pretty damn nasty looking! but that was a tire issue.Rueben crashed the endurance bike at the kink in 04(downshifted one too many gears I think)he got hurt then also but he did not make it to the tire wall that time.

    Seriously though, Lee is an awesome guy and i agree with his points 110% Nelson is an awesome track for motorcycles but is in desperate need of improvements. I think I hit some of the same holes, bumps, whoop d doos, etc as I did in 89 at the 24 hr there!!
