This one is of a launch crash at the line. Randle (222 on Sanbombers quad) is only one quad away at the line on this one.

Wow!
Was that the same guy that seemed to have toubles on all the launches? Seemed like in many of those videos there is a guy that was feering into the other lanes on the launch.
IMO, at some point the organizers should red-flag a guy if he has more than a few dangerous launches. These guys have a lot of $$$ in their quads and don't deserve to have someone crash into them.

That is the same guy that was trying to hit Ruben flores(RubDUbracing) when they were racing, and then he would bump the bike that ruben was on when trying to get to the starting lne..OF course they are not going to DQ him he is a KENZ jockey but the funny thing is he dont even know how close he was from getting pelted in back of the head by Rubens fam.. I heard they dont get along and havent for a while now..

An observation, take a look at where the guy lines up, he put himself in two ruts that turn LEFT! No wonder he ran into the guy next to him. For everyones safety maybe they should do some starting line "grooming" between rounds?

I noticed that to. I don't know how these bikes are set up but my bike is so light in the front on launch that the fronts don't do much to steer me. It is almost like he popped loose a rear bead or something. There was little warning and it looked like it pivoted on the left rear wheel.
It sure looks like it followed that rut though doesn't it? When ever I line up, I pay close attention to the ruts and how deep they look and so forth. I wouldn't want to line up with a deep rut heading off to the side like that.
