Double J

The 'Double J' is a racing venue featuring two courses whose start/finish lines face each other and immediately make a tight righthand turn.

On raceday, I forgot my glasses, and resigned myself to a day of fuzzy arms-length vision.

For some strange reason, TWO races were scheduled simultaneously that day - MotoX and Rallycross Trucks - and I had just put those two facts together when a motorcycle rider skidded across the finish line barrelling head-on towards a truck in the opposing race.

There were goggles littering the sidelines but thankfully nobody got hurt.
