Ooops... My 1st time at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway. Was trying to take a wide line but misjudged. I actually didn't think I was in trouble until you hear me chop the throttle. At the last second I stood the bike up and luckily rode it out.
that looked like turn 4 huh? dont sweat it dude, i did the same my first time there (turn 2). thank micki when you see him (the owner of the track ) for spraying the dirt out there with soil stabilizer. its the stuff they spray to harden the soft sand out there . made the difference in riding out and tipping the front. it scarey when you see the asphalt coming to an end aint it.LOL, at least you recognized it and stood it up just in time, next time dont slow down so much, gas it and it WILL TURN
@milicabg011 Thx for the comments. It was turn 3 going clockwise. Yea Chuckwalla is a great track and probably one of the safest around. I know I'm suppose to stay on the gas but I just can't seem to force myself to not chop the throttle when I see the edge of the track fast approaching. I knew I was WAY off line in this situation so I'm not so sure I could of made the turn even if I committed 100%. I plan to be out there next weekend. Hopefully I keep it on the track this time :)

@odiewan67 Ha, since they put all that time into making the nice big runoff areas I thought I would try one out :)
