It is going to be a fun course.
Hope to see everyone there.

damn, some other BS came up so i cant go.. gosh this crap ticks me off, cant wait till i get my own career and get my own truck and other stuff so i can make all of these. my dad works at the frostproof jail in polk county and they need him to work, but he met the guy who makes rossier exaust and he said he would build one for me so he said he will get either a rossier exaust system or back hipers for me and i can go to practice out at croom over spring break and do two races in april instead of one which that is good but i hate waiting... I NEED A SPONSOR...

swing arm is broken, noise in the engine i need to find, plus i have to split my case to replace my shift shaft...have to take out my engine to do that. Why not go ahead and gusset the frame, get a nice, light weight swing arm, rebuild the engine and bump up the bore so i can run open class and go ahead and get some nice suspension. My bike will be BUILT and i can run it without any major problems (i would hope) arising while i save up for a nice race bike...then one i get that i'll have a back up.
Trust me, its going to kill me not to race, but i want to get all this done now because i know i wont if i rig everything to work for a few more races. And man oh man, if it were to brake during a race, i would probably set it on fire hahaha.
I'll survive, train HARD up to and through september, and tear up B class. Meanwhile, learn how to ride a dirt bike real good and then people can call me bill knight or david balance, whichever.

Great course! Great breakfast!!
I ran out of steam and had a mild heat stroke. It took me two-three hours to recover.
I still feel bad.

I'm very proud of myself!! It was my first race, and I did it on a Banshee!!
Here's a vid of me going thru some deep water by the finish line. The person in front of me was going thru the rocks to avoid the water, which is what most everyone was doing. I was like, "Ah, screw it!" "I can make it!" From what I hear, a few people got stuck there. To hear the people cheering when I went thru it, felt awesome!! Thanks, everyone.
I had a great time!! I'm paying for it today, and probably tomorrow, and the next day, but it was fun!

Good job everyone, Brian I hope you're feeling better, I saw you at first looking good, but then I knew there was something bothering you, it was hot !!!
Good job "Bandida" I know how that first race feels like, but I loved it that time, and everytime I race.
I took some pics and you can see them in this gallery, I have a hard time trying to get them in this site.

Another DNF for me
. I dont understand why my rag wont finish a race this year. I was running pretty good until my bike starting cutting out on my 4th lap and it finally died and wouldnt restart. I'm still so pizzed that its sitting in the trailer dirty and I dont know whats wrong with it yet. I dont know who won yet but I'm assuming Ken did if he kept up his pace and didnt have any problems, he was running strong.

Matt, that sucks it broke down. I kept waiting for the rest of the class to start passing me at any time. Brian Vis saw you catching up to me at one point. Said he went to another part to course to see if you made the pass but you never went by. He went looking for you but didn't find you.
My quad just died, like the kill switch got pulled at about the 4 mile mark on the last lap. Kenneth blew by as I was trying to see what went wrong. Hit the starter and it fired right back up, It was too late, he was cruising, I couldn't even catch up to his dust.
That's racing for ya! What a blast!!
Congrats getting 1st place, Kenneth!!
