I was running the intermediate group. I was running the high end of the group and was only getting passed by instructors that second day. I am not quite sure if I brake late enough and get on the gas hard enough post-apex to be running in the advanced group just yet, but I think I might try it next time.

Hope yours does CEO! I'm with Progressive, and they don't. Is that all mud on the frame, or did it get scuffed/bent?
Because no timing is allowed at these events it is considered an instructional/safety school. The insurance companies are bound to cover you there.

The frame is mostly dirty but I'll know more once it's cleaned off and GMD computrack measures it. My gut feeling is that everything is mostly straight.

She was fine and her bike was fine

Yeah I know it wasn't her fault or anything... I would have expected her to be a little cooler to me afterwards in the garage than she was though. I went over a couple times to be like hey are you ok and wow your bike came out great. In her defense, I don't really think she understands what happened behind her there. I sort of told her what went down and she was just kinda like 'oh, i feel so bad about your bike'... but that was it. Oh well...

Yeah... are you running tank sliders? I wouldn't ride a late model r6 over 15mph without em. Buy those shits.

I know you put a lot of mods into that, pretty sure you just put on rearsets, levers and handlebars last season right? If anything you learned you should be sticking to the more advanced track days I guess? Not that this type of thing couldn't have happened at a motogp event but seems less likely.
The bike is probably totaled but I think the engine/frame/forks/swingarm/subframe are mostly ok. I think I'm going to end up keeping it.

I didn't have rearsets, they might have helped here since my frame slider snapped off.

And yeah, I think I'll be bumping to advanced in the very near future.

The bike flipped at the very last moment and that's what squashed the can, but not much other damage is on the right side besides the lower fairing. I think the can squashing probably screwed up the exhaust flap valve too... looks like a full system is in order.

Coolant was leaking everywhere and I'm pretty sure it wasn't a hose... so I probably need a radiator or at least some radiator repair.

Footpeg, pretty much all of the plastics, new handlebar (thank you woodcraft clipons), pazzo slutch lever is scratched up but seems to work, barend, frame slider, headlight is completely toast... that may mean the fairing stay is done as well. There's probably more... but it's mostly cosmetic.

That's Gino, one of the instructors, helping me get my shit together so we could clear the track. Great guy, a class act, and felt real bad for me. She was back by her bike getting it started so she could go ride it a more...

But yeah, my initial thing was to stand up and make sure my bike didn't plow into that girl, which was my main goal.

I found another photo kind of like what you're talking about... Although she seemed to be like "hey this is funy we crashed i hope that guy got photos!!!!" and I'm more like "FUCK THE WORLD"...

Probably doing about 75-80 coming out of the bowl hard on the gas at that point.

No... and I'm really fucking pissed about it. I bet it would have been awesome.

Basically the recorder's rechargeable battery didn't quite last the entire first day.... so the second day I planned to recharge it during lunch. But then I decided I was going to leave a couple sessions early to get organized for my big trip, so I didn't bother recharging it. It died in the middle of the session in which the accident occurred. I'm fuckin' mad about it still. Would have been sick footage.
