A slip of the hand on the Lucas Oil Buell cost Hector Sr. in his first round matchup against Jim Underdahl.
“I launched and as I was grabbling the handlebar, I grabbed the clutch lever,” Hector Sr. said. “It was basically like I double-clutched, spun the tire and it was done.”
Underdahl ran a 6.925 at 192.91 mph while Hector Sr. sputtered to a 7.040 at 190.48 mph.
