    Why? Did he crash in the pits with his racebike sliding under a canopy and then try to play it off like it was nothing? I thought you were the only one to do that so far.

    Cold or worn tires you still messed up. There was no other bike involved so that leaves the blame, if you want to assign any, all on you and your right wrist. Yes it's extremely rare for you to make such a mistake, but ignoring that it happened doesn't make sense. I didn't and won't assign blame, you did crash and it was on the warm-up lap, pretty much just the basic facts of the situation. If you'd asked in person I'd tell you the same thing. The only reason I brought it up was because it wouldn't have made sense to ignore your crash in this discussion especially the point I was making to Ben.

    Also - in case you don't remember - I was there and know you're fine. Went past you right after the medics checked you out and talked to you later so you can quit the no one worried about me crap too :p

    You're absolutely correct! I was definitely the one to blame, but I would never grab a handful of throttle on a warm lap with worn tires. Unfortunately, rode the tires beyond the point in which they could handle at that point. The tire slid out, and I didn't catch it in time. It was very unexpected because I didn't give any throttle for more than a balance. Boom I hit my head. Thank you for checking on me, I do appreciate it.:up:
    However, I didn't think it was very kind for the other party to make it to sound as if I were an ignorant heavy handed racer, that makes stupid decisions. :down: I made a mistake, and yes I got hurt, but I take responsible riding very seriously, not only for my own safety, but mainly for those next to me.

    I'm talking to whom ever "vcr12 pit crew". If you are him, then yes that is my reply.
    An unsolicited boasting about your riding, while putting others down is... uhh... well, not acceptable. If you're part of a good professional team, then act like it.
    My remark about crashing less, is a defense to my non-"stupid"-like riding.
    I'm sure, who ever you are, you have a good team, and have been very successful in racing. Just don't put others down without expecting a reply.
    Getting into a pissing match, isn't my thing. So, there's my piece.
