this is the same 85ftr and believe it or not i came up about 2ft short myself Shocked
look at the peak of the ramp, how uneven it was. the usual track maintenance man was out of town so it was the roughest ive ever seen it.

all in all it was a good day! no wrecks and no broken quads! we thought it was gonna rain so we got a late start and me being sick didnt help any. yall know that aint gonna stop me, might slow me down, but not stop me. it was cloudy most of the day and breezy. only 5 quads all day so we were able to cut the track short if we got tired. my oldest son jeff had a good first day but he was disappointed with his self because he wanted to go big like his old man. i told him that with practice he will get there.
thanks for checking out our day of fun and i cant wait till our group ride to Waldo MX .

Nice pic's Shawn. Glad to see Jeff trying out the track thing. he is a fast rider, and like his dad he has a screw loose in the head for the big air. So give it time and he will be right there with ya...

-Keep the rubber side down

(oh ya what was that the guy riding that's heading to Nationals... a yammy... not a HAHAHonda)

what was that kid's name on the  yfz? Dreth, you should race Rd.2 of the nationals at gatorback, I bet you could hold your own in prod. B. Only three more weeks until I'm back riding, I'll meet you out at thundercross one day...

Why not mount the dang thing were it was intended to be mounted (on the frame somewhere)  surely you didnt expect it to stay very long on plastic.

I will answer that one for Dreth, the reason He didn't mount it were it was supose to, was because he just bought a steering stablizer, so the rezi, and the stablizer don't fit in the same spot.

The guy on the YFZ was Josh Williams, and one of the fastest guys in Florida , I just hope he got his shocks working better, he's not had the bike long and is just getting it dialed in, but when he does look out he is going to be tough to beat. And guys the table that dreth is talking about is 85ft. it used to be 90 and takes alot of speed to get over, nice pics dreth.

that was josh and he was real fast. he did get his elkas and was working on dialing them in. thanks for backing me up on the 85ft table , i measured every jump on the track myself with a 100ft tape measure.
