Here is Don R. pondering the error of his way. He has just fallen victim to NPRs turn 4. This is the slowest turn on the track and most novice riders choose it to crash on. My theory is that due to the turn's slowness, people feel confident enough to push their limits, leading to more crashes in the same place. Fortunately, Don wasn't hurt too badly and his crash bill was about $150. This was for a rt. handlebar, rt handlebar switch and a rear brake pedal. I shudder to think what the same wreck on his Duc. would have cost.
