    pretty good, seperated shoulder and a few other things need to get checked out.

    Bike was on its best past......and at about the 1000' mark the tire broke its bead.

    Found out after that this has happen to 2 other bikes but this time someone got hurt! Not cool!

    Be aware guys.......I would highly recommend anyone that's running the Shinko Hook Up tire to yank it off asap!
    glad she is ok nem what tire pressure was she running?

    i thought she stop racing because of the situation with her daughter, and selling the bike, this is very surprising to here and i pray that all is well. its sad to here that the cause was not dew to rider but tire failure. i hope she has a speedy recovery.

    First and Foremost I wish Eunice well and glad to hear she wasn't seriously injured.
    Dont be so quick to try and cause a panic about tires when these situations are usually caused by much more.
    I have seen slicks come off rims in the burn out. I have seen all manufactures tires blister and chunk if tuneups are off and the tracks are prepped well.
    I have told quite a few racers that when you can push a bead off the rim with your hand and it only takes 6 lbs of air to pop a bead on, it wont take too much to make it come back off.
    It was back in the 80s that most slick users were putting screws in the rims to hold the beads on untill beadlocks became popular. I cant understand why most all the fast bikes dont use beadlocks now.
    There is way too much of a chance of a tire loosing air and comming off the bead than most racers realize with the bikes running the speeds now.

    thanks everyone for the support.. my one daughter got a video of the pass... i've uploaded it to youtube to share..

    i have quit racing regularly and only make test passes for nem on a rare occasion, if i begin to get headaches as last yr we'd stop.. but so far with only havin made 6 passes for him since May I'm doin fine.

    Fri i was about to have a new career best if not for the shinko hookup breakin the bead.. according to my short times itd been a 7.48 pass easy cuz track was hookin and pullin hard.. I had a 3.32 330 time and 4.97 1/8th mile... at the 1000 mark i was at 170mph when bike suddenly started floppin from side to side and eventually i had to put the bike down on it's side when it looked like i was headin into budgell's lane and didn't want to be highsided from it getting more violent or go headon into the cement wall... luckily he was on a killer 7.2 pass and made it out ahead of me enough that i went right behind him at 155mph for a 7.73 ET

    Nem was on a role with his tune Fri provin his bike had what it took to run the numbers only if the tire would have been able to.

    We later found out there are three other pro racers with same situation happenin in 2-3wks of eachother i think this is more than just a coinsidence, the manf needs to look into this b4 the next person gets killed.

    another item to avoid is that rubber tether for the kills... Nem's broke off at the clip to my glove and didn't pull the switch out to shut bike off.. becuz of that the bike continued to run down the rest of the track to hit the cement wall at the second turn off.

    E.
