Bad tires... He probably didn't have replacements, so he rode until he... well, crashed. WOOPS. At least it wasn't that bad.

Omg! I have to agree with tye. His tires were either toast or set up wrong. That and he was trying to hard to pass, and missing the apex on a few turns.

Ask anyone who rides there alot where a majority of the crashes happen, good ole' T8. If ever given the opportunity, walk the course and pay attention to the T8 area.

The first moment yes, the second moment he ran off the track making a crappy pass, no one to blame but yourself on that.

The final one, if it wasnt spent tires, I'd guess it happened within the first two laps.

i don't feel soooo bad about my PB there now (1:30)
That's more of an Intermediate time

...and yeah, turn 8 is pretty scarred up.
I havent ridden it clockwise yet, but looking forward to hitting it in reverse sometime soon!
