This IS an AMA/ATVA sanctioned event and proof of membership is required.
 :)
This will be a neat event for sure! All new land for FTR. New type of atmosphere for sure.
Remember there is no pit riding where we camp. This area will be seperate and all FTR rules apply. The other parts of the property are not part of FTR and what you do there is your own business(FUN)!
This event is hosted by SouthWest Florida Trail Riders. They are a very small club and travel very far to prepare this course. They have, what I consider, a master trail maker working on this trail. Should be an exciting weekend!

Can't wait one closer than 5 hours away! Sweet!

Okay boys and girls. I am  :'( the blues right now because todays race was postponed. It has been rescheduled giving us back-to-back-to-back weekends of racing (weather permitting LOL)

This event is still a go and from what I've heard it will be a very awesome course. Some of you rode SOME of the property and you have to admit, that was fun.
So hold to your hats, the Pearce family is making it known that they are the premier off-roading site in the state of Florida. Having SWFTR make the course and show them how to make a woods race happen, is just another way of proving they want quality. This weekend event, if you ask me, is one of the biggest things to happen for off-roading in a long time.

4X4 mudding.
Motocross practice/race with cash payout
FTR quad scramble race
Sunday woods riding on race course
Live music
Camping all weekend-Motor coach friendly
Helicopter landing area

Lets git it on!

finally a place to land my helicopter!!! LOL YEA I WISH!!!

sounds like the whole season is going to be a great place to race. Hope not to miss any... if the $$$ holds out!!!

GREAT!!!! not too far away. Can't wait this will be my first race. I will be entering with a friend of mine 30+C category I think is what we will enter.

$30.00 each for the addmission unless you are there Sat only $10.00 each...that's ok unless you are like several in the FTR....have a wife and kids.....gets to be a bit pricey......just my 2 cents....remember 'WE" are doing this for fun and "WE" should not have to be helping pay for concerts or 100% pay backs for other events that are there the same weekend


The Outlaws will be there but I just wanted to bring this point up with people that have kids ...like YeeeHaww Benton and others

I agree that $10 a person is a bit excessive for someone who has there whole family there just to watch. I know the Pearce family is doing a great thing for our sport, but I think they need to come up with a better system of charging at the gate for the FTR racers.

I agree with this price jump thing. It will be harder for families and spectators. I am willing to bet this small fee will cause many to stay home and miss the fun. Funny what some will or will not spend money on.
FTR events are not usually a money making venture, but L-Cross provides this kind of thing for a living. Most of you already know that. Most of you also know that places to ride are dwindling to nothing in the Southern part of the state. Up until a few weekends a go, SWFTR was not going to have any place to host an event if it were not for L-Cross accepting FTR in to host an event.
This should worry all of you.
Developement is changing the landscape of Florida so severely, so quickly, the government has not kept up the recreational aspect of this growth for off-roaders. There idea of keeping up is to shut down completely for fear of legal liabilities. bla-bla-bla. I could keep going...

Very True Brian.....20.00 dollars are not going to break us (outlaws) but a man bring his whole family might not come and that is not so good...we need EVERYONE hopefully that'll be the only price jump for everyone this year

I hope so to, Outlaw.
I have my friends I ride with who usually bring their whole family of 9. Not this time.

   so  let me  get  this  right !!!  if i arrive  on fri night  araound  10 pm  the gate fee  is $30 per person?  or  10$ each....

http://www.atvflorida.com/forum/index.php/topic,27977.0.html

I'm hoping only $10.00... but read for yourself...says Sat. only $10.00... don't know if that means "not Friday night" L'Cross needs to clarify that forsure

Please refer to you FTR flyer as this is a FTR event.

http://floridatrailriders.org/flyer/08_season/SWFTR_QS_102007.pdf (http://floridatrailriders.org/flyer/08_season/SWFTR_QS_102007.pdf)

"Gate Fee $10 per person -
Good all weekend
Gates open Friday"

that is from the flyer.

Looks like, according to the flyer, that the $10 cover the whole weekend. I'm only going for the Sat. race though and even if I had to pay $10 extra for my wife it would help if my kids were free.  With 3 race weekends in a row it is going to be tuff for the family man to make them all.

I am planning on attending my 1st event with another rider (1st timer as well) just wanted to make sure i am not forgetting anything.

Entry Fees: $50
Gate Fee $10 per person (Good all weekend)
Spark Arrestors are required (I have it)
96db MAX sound limit (Unknown)
Tether switch
FTR transponders $20.

How about numbers?
Also how can I find out if i am under the 96db MAX sound limit?
(I have the Yoshimura TRS Carbon Fiber Full Exhaust System)

anything else a 1st timer should know?

Alright for a first timer, the memberships are what kill ya the most. 

Probably just a typo but for the first Fee you have entry fee.
Should be FTR membership=$50

Dont forget this is an AMA/ATVA sanctioned event too, so your gonna have to sign up for that too.  Should be like $50

Racing is expensive but well worth the fun!

Okay,
For a first timer,
Join FTR $50
http://floridatrailriders.org/welcome.htm (http://floridatrailriders.org/welcome.htm)

Join ATVA (the ATV part of AMA) $39
http://www.atvaonline.com/ (http://www.atvaonline.com/)

This event $50
Gate fee $10 per person
Transponder $20
                                             = $169

You keep the transponder and the memberships are good until middle of next year.
Go to the home page and read the rulebook and that will answer most all questions.

As for numbers, I bet if you sent in the membership form to FTR now, you could have a number assigned to you before the race. If you wait, just bring some paper plates I guess. You sure wouldn't be the first one to do so  :P hehehe
Your pipe can be tested at any stereo shop if you want a real accurate reading. The guys and gals doing the testing are not out to break anybodys hairy beanbags over this sound thing. If it is loud, you can bet there will be trouble for you and they will break out the meter. They know what is acceptable and what needs to be tested. Fresh packing and the spark arrestor should do the trick.
*tip*If they can stick the stick through the pipe, you fail the SA test. Try to keep them quiet.

Other really important things to remember;
bring a hydration pack like a Camel Bak
fluids are a must!!
Don't try and be a hero your first time out. The race is NOT won in the first turn. Just try to finish. THAT will be a challenge.  ;)
Move out of the way if a faster rider comes up on you. They are probably not even in your class.
Most importantly!!! If I pass you, block like crazy!!  :D :D :D :D :D

"Move out of the way if a faster rider comes up on you. They are probably not even in your class.
Most importantly!!! If I pass you, block like crazy"!!     

Only you Brian!!!! LOL ViO

LOL!! Hey, I need all the help I can get! hehehe  :P

Thanks for all the info. See you all there!!!

Is it me, or has time slowed down?  :-\
6 more days!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOO  HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

               ;D  10 seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    see you  on the line  boys !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Outlaws will be there....after working all day on the quad to see HOW much damage was done after getting bucked off by a damn tree yesterday at Chipley...Funny how that tree wasn't there at practice or the 1st lap......was great up until then....out front and pull away...then I seen dust from the group in ft of me and new I was catch'em....just as I caught a glipse of'em Bam ...tree jumped right out in ft of me... :banghead.gif...

Tip of the hat to the TTR for making an Endoro Cross section...that was a great section...you could go throught it or take the longer high road around it...anfway it was fun....

A 1st....A 2nd... and a last....

Are we there yet ?

I am, but they wont let me in the gate.
  I hope to finish this one.

Hey Matt !!!, I'm sure you will finish this one, I just hope I can finish in front of you lol

 ;D
The weather is going to be cooler this weekend. I know, low 80's instead of 100. The nights have been in the 60's nice camping weather. We are very excited about this event. Look forward to meeting all of you.There are food vendors in the park serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Mark and Patti Pearce

Can i sign up online friday before the race on both the FTR and AMA and be ready for Sat? or will it not be in the system yet? the bike is ready to go (with the exception of numbers) I can't wait looking forward to my 1st race.

are most poeple sticking around for the whole weekend? i see they (LCROSS) are having a couple of races on Sunday.

If your not signed up, you need to do it all on Saturday morning. That would be the easiest and most hassle free way. I will bne there all weekend. We will be arrin\ving friday evening abou 8pm or 9pm.

Hope we don't get rained out again with the storms this weekend

YEAH...WE DON'T NEED ANYMORE RAIN OUTS

Before anyone starts traveling for the race, they may want to check out for rain postponement:

http://www.floridatrailriders.org/ftr_forums/showthread.php?t=1635&page=3

That is for the WW Quad Scramble up here in Jax...WE can not handle ANYMORE rain on the property "AT ALL"....all of the tech. and tight stuff was in low lying hardwood and cypress heads and that is at least 65% of the course....amazing what "9" inches will do for a course...RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway just washed the truck....trailer is loaded up...all gassed up ...dogs ready to go...just waiting for the wife and son to get here at around 4 and we'll be on our way down..

keep and EYE on up dates on the WW QS#3...if I was a betting man I would say It's 70% not going to happen....got heavy rain last night here at the beach but do not know if they got or how much last night out there...We'll be out at the property Sunday when we get back from Okeechobee...I'll keep everyone posted and ask the one in charge to make a decision early so everyone can make plans for next weekend....Wayne

Dang I can't keep my weekends straight...ignore my last post

know what you mean B-I-T-S...at least is a RRRRAAACCCEEE weekend...yeeehaaaw

giddy-up

    lets  hope is not a wash out .   its raining  here in wpb!   bring  lots  tear offs..  mud mud mud!!!! :o

got the tear offs.....bad scene up here....raining like a double cunted cow pissing on a flat rock and more to come...lot of rain with this front coming through :'(

The rain won't hurt ya' Just make sure to bring some clean clothes for after the race -hehehehe
This property is pretty high. Can't say dry, cause I see the dust is getting knocked down right now. At least thats how I see it. I am switching to the senior class and I don't care if it's muddy or not. Like that would keep me from trying to win a trophy!!





Do they have last place trophies?  :P Oh yeah, I got one last race because there were only two of us!!  >:D

  sweet  lets race !!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ready to leave   yeeeeehaaaaaaaaawwwww !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D

No dust today.

 he he   that was crazy !!  i'am  still  pulling mud from my eyelids !!  ;D

GOT WET Today but no dust

My eyes were welded shut this morning.

My eyes took a beating yesterday and are welded shut. Roll off goggles worked great for about 1/2 a lap. Then they became a necklace.
Crappy start, skies were relentless with rain. Then I think it rained even harder. I could get little to no traction after the first lap. Actually no traction at the last little part of the first lap!
I hit a stump and ALMOST flipped, but somehow rode it out. I don't know who was behind me on the 250r, but they saw the whole thing.  :P
I finally had to quit after three laps. I figured it was best to live to fight another day.
I am so glad the race happened no matter what.
That Sandy Ostrike and crew from SWFTR sure know who to throw and event. Mother nature is out of they're control. I won a helmet at the raffle and I never win anything  ;D
Did anyone stay to see the results?

     my eyes  were shut solid too    this morning !!  thanks  to  #12A   for pulling me out of that huge rut  that swallowed  my quad !!  otherwise  i would of still been there.   had a good start 4th  but  my gogles   were  good only  for 5min .  then  i was  blind  just like  everybody else.  what a race !!

I think 3 laps is ALL that anybody did Brian...RJ has your plague...2nd place I think....

you want to talk about blind...goggles done...then went the eye glasses...then crap in the eyes and with it being so dark in the trees, could not read (SEE) the orange markers...I had a hell'va time in the woods part of the track..should have quit but then again that's not me

It was all good...didn't get stuck but about 10 times...thrown off the bike 3 times...but I did finish 3 laps and a 3rd

3-3-3-10...should of played the lottery last night


Oh yea..If you have not heard..The WW RANCH Quad Scramble has been cancelled....as Forest Gump would say "AGAIN"...Land owner does not want it to happen till later in the spring and the word I have heard....key here is just here say and not FACT...is that we are going to find another property and possibly have is the COOL month of January...just hear say at this point...We RCDR at going to have this race come hell :F or high water..well maybe not high water :banghead.gif

I did 4 laps, good enough for 3rd in +30 B open.  I have never changed positions so many times in one race.  I saw a lot of course cutting though, could have been honest mistakes considering the visability. Its frustrating though to pass someone and then come up behind them again. Karma will get them.

1st off i would like to say thanks to Frank (TRX450R_Racer) and his group for taking my friend and I in and helping us out. mudnuri is was great meeting you as well.

Now to the race!!!! For my 1st race I the best time out there. the +30C class finished right before the rain started only major obstacles I encountered besides the course itself was the cows out there there LOL. The rain was not an issue at all for our group in fact the conditions were great. Only MAJOR problem i had was with my &^$^%$ Kill Switch. My engine kept turning off and i didn't figure out problem till the last lap. I even had to get towed to get the bike started. Learned my lesson on buying cheap parts!!!!!

Other than that it was a blast and i will going to as many races as i can.

Now the +30B class you guys got race right from the start!!! and it only got worse. I was standing by the fence watching you guys go by and it seamed to be at full throttle and doing everything you can not to get stuck in the mud. I could just wonder what it must of been in the the woods.

I just cleaned everything and looked my quad over. Took in some water in the airbox. Can't figure how that happened  ;)
It was nice to see everyone and meet so many new people. It was nice to meet you too TRX470r. Frank &Frank are really good people and did a good thing getting you to try these out. They are a lot of fun.
I think Paul L won the 30+B class.
I left before scores were posted and didn't know how I finished. I can only assume Shawn Platt won the Senior class. He is fast but spun out early. I led for a while and he caught me and passed. I tried like all heck to keep up, but was not getting any traction.
Did Taylor Kiser win the AA class?
Hey Southern outlaw! Is RJ okay? He found the same bump twice. Thanks for grabbing the plaque. I'll see you in Myakka!

OK now I am hooked!!! I will be out of town for for the 11/3 race in Myakka but will do my best to make QS #5 11/17 in Venice, FL. I will make sure to bye a good Kill Switch and a Damper this time around.

I feel your pain outlaw. You and your son Darren were a great help to me in my first race. When we arrived at the track my quad had only been out of the truck for maybe 2 minutes and you guys  were already turning wrenches on it trying to help me me get everything just right. Anyway,  it was painfull to  see you there on the side of the trail w/a busted front end! Sorry I couldn't make it to Okeechobee, but I will definately see you in Jacksonville! ( I'm finally finished licking my wounds!) Hope you guys blew it up at Okeechobee!

Some People had a shortcut on the track because I had to keep passing the same people over and over again. And I don't think it was on accident. All in All was alot of fun.

So I wasnt the only one had that problem.

I was one of the people that did cut the course. It wasn't intentional. Somehow I must have been going the wrong way. I realized it later the evening when I talked with some people that said they past me more than once. I don't look at the score board so I wasn't aware of it until that night when it was too late to do anything about it. I called the FTR business office and spoke with Bonnie George to have myself DQed. I apologize to everyone, I wouldn't try to do that. I'm there for the good times and good people. See you all in 2 weeks.

TRX450R RACER

That was Big of you to step up and say something you have my utmost respect, I know There were other riders that were doing it intentional or not, just frustrating to have to eat dirt from the same riders over and over. My thought if it was by accident why fight me so hard to let me by again. I can think of one in particular and he was on a suzuki I past him no less then 3 times. I can honestly say I only seen you once and you were in a tight section up against some tree's.

Thanks.

 I was stuck one time and someone came up behind me and said "how did I get behind you again." I was like "I don't know I'm just riding." I guess the shortcut looked like it was the course. Like I said I do it for the whole experience not the piece of wood.

I think that everyone that was in the last race was just thankful to be done with it...I know I could not keep my glasses from fogging up and pulled them down on my nose and then I really couldn't see for sure then...I know on the last lap I when right instead of left and ran part of th the course over...less all be thankful that no one got hurt and the funnel cloud did not touch down at the camp sites or anywhere for that matter...

way to Taylor Kiser...5 laps...you da man :T

Same problem I were glasses and can't see far away without them. I was riding blind.

Thank God other people saw this.  I thought I was losing my mind...I know I had the lead on the first lap.  Yay for once!  Half way through the first lap I passed three guys that never passed me so I don't know how they got in front of me. (a suzuki, a 250r and a honda) then again on the second lap I had to pass all of these same guys.
Thanks for stepping up #25B, obviously there was somewhere in the course that was not marked right.  I took my time on the third lap and saw where the course was being cut...the course took a hard left but looked like it went straight through the bushes.  Had fun racing with you at the begining of the second lap. Also, I'm very sorry for running over your legs when you were stuck on the log.  My goggles were dirty, the mud was black & your pants were black. I couldn't see anything! Sorry!  
Hopefully the other people will step up like you have.   Wish I could have finished all 4 laps.  That is what happens when you don't run an airbox lid and it rains 4 inches in 2 hours.  Found out the hard way that Yamahas don't like water.  
I'll get you next time Paul!

I have to give you A & B riders credit.  I don't know how long I would have stuck it out in that rain...

We had a great time and some great racing in our family.  My 8 yr old did his first XC race.  He was always too nervous to be in front of the crowd of people at the last race, but finally overcame his fear.  He place 7th in superpeewee b.  Spun out in the last lap and lost a spot.  Prior to that he was running 6th...He said he was nervous to pass the 2 people in front of him as they had a hard time maintaining there line.  I was proud of him for playing it safe and not going beyond his comfort level.  There was some great racing and a lot of competition in that class...we're looking forward to the next one.

My 4 year old came in 2nd in peewee B.  He's one of those no-fear I'm not gonna let off the gas for anything kids...He had a blast.  Pretty soon he'll be ready for more power.

I came in 2nd in Beginner 400-open.  I was definitely stronger this race than the last one (although the course was much easier).  It feels great to see yourself get a little better each race.  We look forward to the rest of the season, and hope to get to meet more of you throughout the year.

Good job Backinthesaddle....keep your kids racing and introduce them to there competators...

Parents like you and Jimmy Benton with his 4 boys is what makes this country what it is...a great place to live...

you'll find out here that there are a lot of good down home folk and we all just happen to enjoy the same thing for fun...I KNOW I HAVE

keep your kids racing

That's cool. I know you didn't run me over on purpose. I couldn't see to good either.

See everyone in 2 weeks.

So if Iam behind someone and they get stuck, lets say in the tight woods section. Can I cut threw the bushes just to get around him? I was behind someone when they got stuck and the only way to get around him was to cut across the bushes or wait for him to get going again. Was it ok to go around him or should i have waited for him to get going again?

Yes, it's OK to go arond a bottle neck. Just not to cut out a good chunk of the track

Remember that you must still go through any double green arrows and can get disqualied if you don't stay within 20 feet of any orange arrow.  I believe the only exception to this is if this is a big log jam and officials are telling you to go somewhere else. 

On a side note....I cleaned our quads yesterday like every Sunday after a race...went more in depth today...I thought I clean the radiator good but today I found out it was almost completely clogged....took it out...washed and blowed out alot of dirt, seed and stems...also going to change ALL fluid levels in everything.. best to be safe and spend a few bucks then spending a hell of a lot later...even had a trace of water in the axle housing...

take care of your quad and it'll take care of you

Good tip Outlaw!
People, this is no joke. Make sure you take the time to clean your machines really good. It is the beggining of the season and you want your quad to last as long as it can. Some simple, sometimes not and sometimes time consuming, maintanece will ensure your wallet doesn't take too much of a beating as the season goes along. Each course will offer up a different kind of beating. Ask Jimmy Benton what water does to your quad without tearing it down? It will leave you stranded hoping to have a friend like Southern Outlaw to loan his racer.
Which by the way was really cool of you all to hook Jimmy up like that.
As for course cutting, well, I really don't think it was intentional for most. You must realize that the rain really changed how things work. Usually the course workers sweep and check for breaks and fix. This was unusual.
TRX450 that was really cool of you to do that. I am wondering how the heck I took 2nd when I know for a fact I was passed by Shawn Platt. And he wasn't the winner. I led for a lap or two I don't know. I do know I could hardly see and I don't wear glasses. You glasses guys are nutz!!  :N
 :P :P :P
Frank I'm sorry I ran you over too!
 :P :P :P :P

As I was cleaning my bike yesterday and thinking what a beating it took. I thought.........if someone told me to go out and try to destroy a bike, short of just crashing it into a wall how could you have been any harder on it than at that race?
  Cant wait till the next one.

I was also having starter problems and took the air hose and blowed it out and seems to be working fine now....you got 2 weeks for the next one so please take a little time to take care of your equiptment...we need EVERYONE at the next quad scramble....this deal is gonna be huge before it is all said and done....

be sure to get "YOUR" ballots out there for Brian Morris B4 Dec 1st...we need a good rep in FTR for the Quads!!!!

That ain't no lie Chillin

Thank you for the kind words Wayne. I will try my hardest to do the best I can.

Also make sure you take off the brake calipers. They are packed with mud and grass.

Yea TRX...the sand and water killed mine...I'm just going to go ahead and replace all of them....dirt and water was in all the electrical connections....you have 2 weeks just go ahead and give your quad a GOOD once over!!!!!!


No problem Brian...I know you'll represent us well

First of all I'd like to thank Darren of Southern Outlaw Team for loaning me his quad. Takes onehelluva guy to loan his race bike in good conditions much less in those conditions!!!!!!! Take note on the maintenance tips .. I rode the Jacksonville race course last Sunday to check the water level. Evidently if you ride in water you need to clean bearings or it will lead to certain failure leaving you without a race ride unless you are lucky enough to know someone like Darren.
   Seconly anyone that finished or even did 2 laps Sat afternoon is a true racer. I like adverse conditions and even wanted some rain.. that was a little much. Still had a great time.
    The worst part was the course cutters. TRX450, that was me that asked how you got in front of me. Classic answere " I don't know!!". I apoligize for assuming you were simply a cheater. Takes a big man to step up and admit that kind of mistake. You have now gained alot of respect from me and several others I have talked to by admitting that. We need more like you. Can't wait to shake your hand at the next one!! I don't know if it did any good but I spoke to Dan and Amanda today to see if rather than DQ'ing you if they can put you in last place or dock a lap or something to salvage some points for you. Hopefully you can count this as a drop but at year end a few points may help. The good news is since it is after protest period  you may not be able to DQ yourself. They are finding out what to do. I can't see penalizing you with no points for an honest mistake.
  As for the ones that cut EVERY lap you are a bunch of no good sorry peices of whammy. You know that if the same people are passing you every lap you are doing something wrong. This is not beginner class, we have all been doing this a couple years now. I know of one person that I passed 3 times that never passed me and made me earn it every time. He also stood there when they posted the scores while me and several others talked about this # quad cutting. Never spoke up and said anything. Didn't realize who it was till sunday morning when I saw them loading their quad or I would have called him a cheater to his face.
     I'm going to leave this alone now but cheaters beware I am in this for fun, and I don't mind losing legitimately. I don't like being cheated!!!!!!! I will leave this weekend behind me and race everyone clean. If the people that cut every lap EVER cut and get in front of me you will be yard sailed!!!!!!!!!!!
   Thanks for letting me vent and I'll see everyone in 2 weeks.
   YEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I pulled enough grass off my quad to start a new lawn. I will have to have Lawn Man MX come mow it for me LOL! Raphael you looked like you had fun!
I had curtains accross the front of my quad. :P
 I pulled the plastics and wheels off. Calipers, too. Nasty stuff. My brand spanking new brakes, well they look pretty good hehehe
Jimmy, I think I have one of your Green chairs.

Yall want a good tip. If it looks like a monsoon is coming break your quad in practice and borrow one to race in the rain!!!!!!! If your real lucky they will flip it twice while they are on it and can't blame you for bent or broken parts!!!!!!!!! Just kidding I felt guilty racing someone elses quad in that mess and quit after 3 laps. Southern let me know what needs replacing and I'll get it on it's way. Again I appreciate the ride.
     Not sure about the chair but consider it rent for the roof over my wifes head.

The day before the race I was thinking about dust . . . was I wrong ? ? ? talking about breaks, there are no break pads left on the rear caliper and I'll have to look on the front ones, during the race I thought my clutch was slipping, I tested today and everything looks just fine, may be a good mud tires or a paddle tires would of made the difference.

Congrats on Paul L. for the win, great job men, and Frank B.(TRX450) good call on admitting your mistake, and for the ones that were cheating, we are all having fun,  you guys don't want to see some one mad at you just for playing dome, lets play fare and keep having fun, like Jimmy said the ones racing this class are no beginners and I'll say are no kids eather.

Two weeks and we'll be at QS #3 oh yeah

JB...this is Wayne....Darrin said something last night that you might not get your bike back together for the next race?...If not let me know and we'll bring the tank (Forman) down for you to race or you can race the Raptor and I'll race the tank or or the same thing we did this past weekend...whatever it takes to help out a team mate...

remember if you don't have the time to fix it let me know and I'll come get it and fix it...."WE NEED THE POINTS....TEAM OUTLAW"

I'm starting to realize that not making it to Okeechobee last weekend may have been for the best. Sounds like everybody got run over by someone else! You guys would have had me laid up like Gerrard after Monday nights game. LOL
