Wayne Rainey:
That day I was off just a little bit. I was struggling, but... I'd been in that situation many times so it wasn't nothing new. It was just an error on my part I just gotten in a little bit to hot, carrying little bit too much corner speed. So I really had to bank the bike over really hard keep it on line and when I just opened the throttle it...it stepped out. It was just an easy... It was an easy crash because it stepped out and I fell off the side of it. I was like sliding with the bike across the track but when I went off the track I hit a curb. It kind of set me up in the air then I landed in the gravel trap it had like speed bumps in it for the F1 cars and at that time that's what we were using in motorcycles. As soon I hit that I started, it set me off so then you know I didn't have any control how I was landing, where I was gonna land

RAINEY But that day I was just off a little bit
00:00:02.518 --> 00:00:04.175
I was struggling
00:00:04.021 --> 00:00:06.074
but I'd been in that situation many times
00:00:06.108 --> 00:00:07.351
So it wasn't nothing new
00:00:07.385 --> 00:00:09.594
It was just an error on my part
00:00:09.629 --> 00:00:11.389
I just got in a little bit too hot
00:00:11.424 --> 00:00:13.219
carrying a little bit too much corner speed
00:00:13.253 --> 00:00:14.772
so I had to really bank the bike over
00:00:14.806 --> 00:00:17.001
really hard to keep it on line
00:00:17.119 --> 00:00:20.998
And uh when I just opened the throttle
00:00:20.916 --> 00:00:22.469
it stepped out
00:00:22.504 --> 00:00:24.575
And it was just an easy
00:00:24.609 --> 00:00:26.542
It was an easy uh crash you know
00:00:26.577 --> 00:00:28.051
I mean 'cause like it stepped out
00:00:28.544 --> 00:00:29.787
and I fell off the side of it
00:00:29.821 --> 00:00:31.962
and I was like sliding with the bike
00:00:31.996 --> 00:00:33.687
across the track
00:00:33.722 --> 00:00:35.724
but when I went off the track I hit a curb
00:00:35.758 --> 00:00:37.007
and it kind of sent me up in the air
00:00:37.105 --> 00:00:39.797
and then I landed in the gravel trap
00:00:39.831 --> 00:00:42.351
and it had speed bumps in it for the F1 cars
00:00:42.386 --> 00:00:43.559
And at that time uh
00:00:43.594 --> 00:00:45.423
that's what we were using in motorcycles
00:00:45.458 --> 00:00:47.563
As soon as I hit that it started setting me off
00:00:47.598 --> 00:00:49.393
so then I you know I didn't have any control
