Man was that a short fun place..Thanks Luis we (RCDR) did our best with what we had with only 80 acres...and was it FAST...Taylor came by me pinned (as always) only a 1/2 mile in...
I bet he is as fast as his dad said "HE" was!! LOL
... I made a joke!!..OK back to the race...
anyway me being in the LAST row of the 3:30 race (and slow) I get to see
ALOT of the front runners come by so it is sort of a treat...well yesterday I got a double treat....got to point to all up through most of the +30 B class "FREIGHT TRAIN" which way to go by me then I thought I could go fast again...well that was a MISTAKE!!!!!! going to fast into a double green (2 HUGE ass pine trees..yea the ones I insisted we double and go through) my raptor said "Dude what the hell..I ain't hitting the tree) so it politely throwed me off...thanks for the guy's who stopped to see if I was ok...I loved the commits of 2 guy's that was supposed to be there watching the double green...."leave here for 5 minutes and all the action happens"...."well I damn shore whadden ain't gonna give'm a replay"..so I finished that lap #3 I think and I was DONE!!!... I changed with help from my wonderful wife, which told me to lie down a little bit...hell no I want to see THE RACE...+30 B class so I took my medication got on the foreman an man you guy's was STILL turning and burning..I wish I was 20 years younger....
Jimmy Benton ...you are so missing out!!!!!
as the race was over we all gathered under one of the BIG OAKS and resounded about the race..Luis, Paul, Ken...the exhausted pleasure gleeming from each of your faces...Brian, face all dirty, snot running out your nose just knowing that you left nothing on the track except your ALL!!!!!!!
I know the gas crunch has hit us all and we all fell the pain but thanks to
ALL 97 RIDERS that was able to make it and would like to thank Jeremy and his brothers at AMP EXTREME for providing us with a piece of property to have this 3 time rescheduled event..
