Justin Buckelew, of the Motoworldracing.com/Suzuki team, had a scary looking crash while leading one of Saturday afternoon's preliminary heats. Buckelew came up a little short over a quad jump, and came off the bike, which flew into the grandstand area. Luckily, no one was injured, but Buckelew's bike was dinged up. His mechanics replaced a radiator and other bent parts, and then he went out and qualified for the evening's program via the last chance qualifier.
Rich's Response: Huh?! Another top Pro comes up a little short.
Nothing wrong with the tracks...must be another guy that doesn't know how to
ride! Come on...who are we trying to kid? Let's design some tracks, so we
don't lose a large percentage of our top riders.
