They did not say much on the broadcast but he was sitting on the start with two to go. Did he crash or was it mechanical? He was riding well, I have been a Windham fan since LaRocco retired.

Thanks

They said he crashed, but, then Short had his big spill. Not sure if they just got them mixed up or if KW crashed at about the same time.

Must have broken that stock suspension.

Off topic but, they never even mentioned that Davi was doubling that big gap into the corner. I saw one other zip code guy doing it too I think.

They showed him do that double. That was the same one Anstie was doing on his 250. Says a lot about Anstie, I imagine.

Real question is was doing that big double faster than not doing it?
I didn't see the race, so I'm asking...

Not to be an a$$ but that is kind of a dumb question. Anytime you can jump once instead of twice it's going to be faster. Others weren't doing it because they felt it was too big a risk of crashing.

Thats not always true... many times doing the double would make you mess up the corner because they couldnt stop for the corner due to the mud. So most of the fast guys didnt hit the double. The time made up, if any at all, was not worth the risk.

Plus this double seemed to really throw them up in the air to clear it not really gaining time on the guy not doubling.

I immediately thought clutch problems.

Off topic, but I read somewhere that Dungey popped a hole in his radiator and when he finished the race he had NO water/coolant left....

He had an early flight to the super bowl so he smoked the clutch? WTF? Not on a Honda! or maybe he did? I kinda like his style. Oh yea, he's almost 40 maybe he just got tired.

The very first guy to jump it was Will Hahn, he used it to get fast qualifying time, then Weimer started jumping it and got fast time back.
