Lost focus heading the straight at PMP. I fixated on his bike and not where I was and missed brake point.javascriptl('http://videos.streetfire.net/video/6b6067cf-f00e-4f82-a5cc-9941014704b5.htm');

what's the point? did you hit the guy or just run off?
just run off. Like it said just lost focus nothing bad happened.
Little different animal...that straight at PMP, huh? I know some of the "top" guys are hitting 180+ on that straight. The littlest distraction can turn into bad news quick. Looks like you did a good job just taking the run-off.

Let's see if this link works... Streetfire video links can be a little touchy sometimes
Ya, just use the 'link' button in the post edit window, globe with a chain link over it
That video he posted of Jason Pridmore, had him hitting 182mph on the straight. I would imagine all of the equipment used on Pridmore's bike is accurate to give the speed, braking and other readings.

"So live your life so the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their views, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide."
"Finish today what others won't, so you can achieve tomorrow what others can't."

I haven't seen the video, so I'm going off of experience with racing and practicing at PMP and with several fellow MRA racers who are/were considered in the "top" class. I have no doubt that they are achieving close to those speeds, but my initial reaction of the 180+ speed was of speculation. I know that I can hit just above 140 on the speed-o before I hit the brakes for trun one. My speedometer is not accurate, (about 10mph off, and that is slightly better than the Japanese bikes), and I don't see why theres are accurate as well. Yes, those bikes are alot more powerfull than mine, and the "top" racers have bigger balls than I going into turn one. I'm not arguing about the insane speeds that they are pulling, just the accuracy of the 180+ mph speeds that are indicated.
Maybe I am out of it
