got clotheslined in my race run, and was told no re-run, apparently course tape across the trail isnt their problem

appologize for the talking afterwards, i dont have an editing program to cut it
i love all the blank stares you got at the bottom ...lolll

also, assuming you have windows you should have windows movie maker on your comp which is simple and effective for editing.

First wash out was my fault, wheelied out of the corner but didnt turn enough so i kind of leaned down and the front didnt follow, that was my fault. As far as editing, it is a .mov, and movie maker does not accept those, i used to have vegas until i got EP banned.

Blank stares are disbelief that i was 10 seconds off the first place time

you can argue, but... you fell, on a forty second course its over any way. even if you did get a re run in reality your cheating your self. not saying that if you were to only hit the tape and not fall you shouldn't get a re run. im also not trying to say you cheated in any way. im just saying the tape didnt really effect your run since you fell any way.

again i hope i make it CLEAR im not hating, just stating my $.02

i see it as, i got a 53 (with decimals) 2nd place was a 50 (with decimals) I assume the tape took 3 (personally i think more) seconds, thas good for 2nd place. you class ran faster than mine, everybody except jon fell.

(and to add to that, i hit the tape at 35 seconds (using 18 secs as the start, and 53 as the tape) i had 2 corners left, id say i can get the drop into the halfpipe and the step up-step down in 15 seconds, personally i think id get it in 10 but thats neither here nor there. I will admit that diablo did take all the tape down after my run (which was good) and my friends that saw my run held it for a few others before it was decided to remove it.


Not boycotting diablo and will continue to race there, want to make that clear, sucks, but no real hard feelings. I am sure if i was able to show them the video that day everything would have been taken care of
