				I was trying to remember who it was that scraped his elbows on a 600. I think it's Jason O'halloran. Take a peek.

				The view point and compresion of the photo is subjective, knee may be down but elbow could still be a long way off. Speed is also a point of contention, tis far easier to reach this angle of lean at a low speed than high.
Quite a bloody good picture though, would be proud if it was me pictured here.

Believe me...this guy scrapes his elbows regularly. I have not only seen photos of him doing it, but I have also been both in the box seat (behind him at a practice day) and seen him do it from trackside!!!
