Yes i know a tight indoor track definitely isnt the best place to get comfortable on the bike again.. Lucky it happened the way it did, didn't hit anybody else and I just put my new atlas on which i now will never ride without. Yes its bad whiskey throttle and no I couldn't pull the clutch in time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Q-CDR4g-UY

Probably lucky you didnt go headfirst through one of those windows. And how strong are those windows by the way? Looks kind of dangerous to me.

I have to be completely honest here. That track was insanely tight and small, and it looks like you only rode a bike once or twice in your life. You need to hit a trail or track that is 20-25ft wide before you are trying to navigate a 10ft wide arenacross-style track.

Looked like if you had kept the bars straight and not landed off the gas you could've ridden it out.

Hope you are alright. Be glad you were on a 125. A 450 (or 500cc two stroke) and you might have whiskey throttled through the glass!

Reminds me of how much I HATED tight indoor arenacross racing. I always held my breath like no tomorrow and felt claustrophobic on those kind of tracks.

I think I'm gonna be more excited after reading the thread first, before watching the video. Solely because instead of anticipating how bad the crash is gonna be, I'm now looking for the "D" class/fake/dumbness of the video. You said it peelout, GoPro should have to evaluate your skills before your camera is compatible with youtube, or Brotocross. I could fully intrust Brotocross to handle that job to 110%.
