It only takes one stupid move like that to seriously hurt yourself.

....yeah...that's one of our (SoCalTrackday) clients.

In fact, one of our cornerworkers called in and said "I think the guy in the army outfit just went helmet down!" We laughed.

We had NO IDEA that he was being literal.

The guy is a nice guy, ex-sniper (explains the ghilli suit), with the loudest damn GSXR 600 (or any other bike) on the whole track. We joke that if he crashes, we won't be able to find him.

He's pretty fast, usually running very low 2.00's at CVR. Dale, from Racers Edge (and our Michelin guy) is filming. Dale, however, is STUPID fast, and is also available for 1 on 1 instruction.

^True.

Tye + 748 = broken motor
Tye + 749 = broken motor
Tye + 848 = broken bike
Tye + Triumph 675 = broken motor
Tye + KTM dirtbike = broken motor

At least Tye has broken engines and bikes. He's given 'real world' racing his best shot, and that counts for something in my book.

Showing off like that could well have you leaving the track in a bag. Dumb shit.

I guess this explains why he is an "ex-sniper"......he lost his ability to blend in and now he is sticking way out!!

Glad none of his suit tassles never got pulled into the chain!!
