    That happened to me last year at Superbike Showdown.

    I was next to the track picking a bike up and boom another comes down and the tank explodes. I was so excited I finally got to play with fire!

    Not sure if anyone here knows...

    My guess is not really, I've yet to have a high side end well for a bike. I have half of a superbike in my room from high sides. lol
