hmm...he could have gone to left side and avoid hitting him

 

umm hence the "target fixation" title

 

good example of target fixation

I wouldn't say so, just looks like he made a mistake and tried to go right, then just kept going further right as the bike and rider came at him until he ran out of room.

It's a good example to stick to your line or tighten it up if a rider goes down in front of you because they're going to slide to the outside.

 

just curious: can anybody explain what caused that rider to eat **** like that? that's something i would like to prevent if i can.

 

looked like powerslide + throttle chop to me

highside

Agreed... the trailing rider should have known to stay inside.

It happens with our new racers (in cages) where they go where the empty track is before everything works itself out and end up being where it all ends us.

good point - but it *could* be a target fixation, i'll say a combination of both.

 

why: I would say cold tyres and trying to keep up with riders that had a few laps to get the rubber warmed up

how would you know this? Rubber doesn't take a few laps to get warmed, can be done in less than a lap but it didn't seem like these guys did a lap

whats up with the guy that got hit? he live?

 

ya i agree it wasn't target fixation. He went to the outside to avoid the guy, but the guy kept going wide, and eventually they hit.

Hopefully both were ok
