^ is right, his has something mystical

and John I don't agree with you about the track. IMO I'm there to expand my experience and comfortably find my current limit .. not contest with any other people there or try to accomplish more. Besides If I crash there it would be better than trying to accomplish the same thing on a public road and crashing 99.99999% of the time, as long as another rider doesn't get involved in my crash ya know.

I would say a lot of crashes are due to people trying to hard when they aren't doing it right, I mean at the track you have sooo much more available concentration as to what YOU and only you are doing.

well yeah, but i do dumb shit from time to time when motorsports and my friends are involved.

i'm crashing... i expect it. where on the street i can remind myself not to push because it doesn't matter, since crashing means dying. but at the track its like the going fast is the reason for going. well its not, but you know what i mean. it costs alot of money and time to go up there and just cruise around. once the newness wore off. i'd ball myshit up doing something stupid.

true story, keep trying to get that one corner faster and faster, just see if you can get a knee down, then finally whoooops, it slips and your done. I could def see how you ought to be prepared to crash.

Its gotta be more of a sub concious thing. i dont go around thinking about wrecking but when i do feel like im going to something kicks in. self preservation? i dunno but its in that sub-concious part of my brain always.
