He wants to know how not to wreck his train? Maybe using a laser to guide it will help. ;)

sorry, reaction post, the show was "destroyed in seconds" I went on the web site tried to find the vid but no luck.
It was some guy in europe on and F3?? taking and easy turn, rear wheel does a hick up and he slams into a brick wall with a 40ft drop on the other side

I believe he hick-upped the rear and hit a wall. Avoid either maneuver.

I saw that a long time ago, even the guy on the bike didn't know what happened... for some reason his front tire started to wobble in the middle of the turn if I remember right

Looks like the rider might have downshifted while in a turn. Locked up the rear.

Pocket of sand, lost traction my guess.

Looks like a @1995 ZX6e.

Looked like a down shift or he dumped the clutch and lost the rear end to me

Yeah, he coulda saved it. After that twitch of the rear tire he froze up and target-fixated on the wall. He could've kept turning and made the corner.
