I say yes as long as one of the bikes behind him don't hit him!

I think he has the best line if there is a right hand turn ahead....of course I have a twisted sense of firstturns.  Great shot...I hope he made it.

I think he's setting up early for the inside line in upcoming r-h turn and pulling off the classic block pass manuever at the same time.Learned it from Chad Reed:D

CZ and Yamaha #72v are about to tangle. CZ goes down and then gets run over.

Ernie,
  I thought the Kinetic Energy (mv2/2) would help get past the Yamaha with just his right leg hurting for a while?  You are the Engineer.

Ron,  Just guessing but everybody else is pretty much going straight and seems to be the "right" thing to do.  Poor CZ rider is sliding sideways with rear wheel spinning ... goin' down?

He just chopped the gas, his outside elbows is down and his inside foot is still on the peg.
He just realized its all over, he's going down.
I don't think anyone will hit him though.

Look under the bike, dirt being kicked up, probably from his right foot, not the front tire. It may be a last ditch effort for a foot dab, and he pulls it out!!!!

Well, if he would have been riding a Penton he wouldn't be in that position.  LOL  And he would have been so far out in front, he could have gone down and gotten up and still would have been in the lead!
