[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 1412955, member: 17212"] They were just drafting one another Mike. At those speeds, the draft can suck you into the back of the bike you are drafting. They are coming up from behind at several miles an hour faster than the guys they are drafting and pulling out to pass just seconds before running into the back of the bike. If the guy in front is also drafting the guy in front of him, then the weaving starts. They don't want to get too far away from the bike in front when they pass or they will lose the effects of the draft. Drafting is an art. When you come up behind another bike and get into their draft, everything gets real quiet and your fairing will start to buffet. When that happens, you either have to be ready to back the throttle off and let the bike in front tow you or use the draft and your extra speed to pass the guy in front. On the last lap, everyone is looking to pass. When you have five or six bikes all shooting for the same spot, things get a little crowded. Makes for exciting racing though. :cool: [/QUOTE]
