milan 070210 ep 7.73 crash.m2ts

On July 2nd 2010 at Milan Dragway dreamryder was on quite possibly a 7.48 run according to short times (4.97 in the 1/8 a new career best) when around the 1000 mark @ 170mph the shinko hookup drag tire broke the bead and came off the rim causing the bike to vilolently shake from side to side, eventually she had to lay the bike down on its side to avoid highsiding as the bike went in her oponents direction. She came out of it with only a fractured hand and separated shoulder thanks to wearing some of the best gear possible: SYED leathers with full backprotector and added padding in all key areas, Arai Helmet and boots, and Suzuki race gloves with kevlar knuckles... bike had slowed down to about 155mph as she crossed the traps for a final ET of 7.73 when she put it down on it's left side.. word of caution to those who use rubber tethers on their safety kills.. this one failed - broke off at clip and bike didnt shut down .. also it was discovered the shinko hookup drag tire did this to three other racers as well. This tire should be avoided till the manufacturer addresses this problem.
