Well.....At least it was a low side dismount....much better for the rider.

My hat's off to those UK FJ club racers. They are a special breed, to be able to muscle a large FJ thru a race course and doing so competitively.

Glad he was okay.  Oh, and what a bitchin radiator set-up in the headlight!  Seems on the small side - bit it must obviously work (due to the RAM air I would imagine)

Happy to see his nice exhaust survived...

Yeah. It was kind of scary to see an FJ being tossed through the air and appreciate how big they are.
