Hopefully not a member here
Novice group rider on a ninja 300 hops on a demo liter bike and rides it in middle group. Comes into Palmer T1 probably faster than he ever did before, comes under friends bike, and uses my friends front tire as his marker taking friend out in the process. Friend goes down and separated shoulder. Demo rider high tails it out of there and doesn't even have the nerve to stop by and ask how the guy is. Some people are stupid, suck, and have no guts to at least apologize. I know it's a track related and an accident but have the balls to stop by and apologize.

Wow sorry to hear about your friend. I really believe you need to have more than a license to ride a 1000cc Super sport. Just because you have been riding a smaller bike for a year or two does not mean you can handle nearly 200 HP!

When was this? I thought TTD was the only track day org at Palmer, and they haven't been there in weeks.

Following this on NESR (which i think greg is more active at), Looks like this was at thompson, because i thought the same think Andrew. The guy on the demo bike didnt go down, just caused the other rider to go down. He promptly left right after from what they are saying.
