ATV Florida Forum

Saturday, November 3rd, Thunderbowl Speedway will be having a TT money race. This will be an outlaw race and will not be AMA or ATVA sanctioned.

There are several pro and pro/am riders from the TT nationals coming down for this race. There are also several riders coming for all of our other regular classes such as Vets, Youth, Intermediate, Pee Wee, etc. There may be some additional classes added as well.   

There will be two Open/Pro classes. OPEN and PRO PRODUCTION. Both classes will pay out, but the Open class will have at at least $1,000.00 to pay out.
The Open/Pro Classes will cost $50.00 per class to enter, and will have 80% payback in both classes.

There will be another Adult Mini Quad race.

There will be at least one knobby tire class.

There may be and additional Flat Track money race as well, stay tuned. 

There will be no points for the Thunderbowl Maximum TT Series at this race. The points race will be re-scheduled.   

There will be two Open/Pro classes. OPEN and PRO PRODUCTION. Both classes will pay out, but the Open class will have at at least $1,000.00 to pay out.
The Open/Pro Classes will cost $50.00 per class to enter, and will have 80% payback in both classes.


 Maybe I am not reading this right. Is it 1,000 pay out for the open class or is it 80% pay back. I might have to try this one out.

Any update on having a flattrack race at this event?

I've had several questions, so here's a few details for clarification.

The ONLY TT classes that will pay out are the OPEN and PRO PRODUCTION classes. These classes cost $50.00 each to enter. The payout for both classes will go from 1st through 3rd place. 
The payout is based on entries. The OPEN class will have at least $1000.00 to payout, regardless of how many entries there are. If there a large number of entries in the OPEN class, then the payout will increase. The PRO PRODUCTION class will be a straight 80% payout, based on the entry fees.
 
Definitions:
OPEN CLASS- Any bike, any frame, any motor.
PRO PRODUCTION- 4 stroke only, engines not to exceed 450cc, factory frame with production motor. No Hybrids, big bores, prototypes, 2 strokes, etc. This class is for the 450's.   


We will have ALL the normal TT classes also, as well as some new/different ones depending on turnout. All other TT classes are $25.00 per class, and are for trophies only, no money. There are NO points for the tracks points series.

Racing times will be posted tonight. We will be starting earlier than normal to keep from being there all night.

RACE TIMES!

Gates Open @11am

Practice @ 1pm

Racing @ 3pm

Sounds like fun! I'll definately be there to watch :)

I hope everyone is eating their wheatties. I think these boys from NC are going to bring somethin for us. Better get ready.

How many laps will there be in the Open Pro class?I heard 20 lap feature is this correct?

The Open and Pro Production classes will be longer than a normal race. Actual lap number has not been determined yet.

How about we make a money youth class i would pay more money to have a pay back for one of the kids that are running in the class.

What are the normal laps for the race.  I will be in the knobby class.  Also my son will be on a stock ltz250 running in the knobby class will he run with the larger bikes if no smaller bikes show up or will he be in the kids flat track quads?

There are supposed to be some pretty good youth riders coming.

We'll have to see what the turnout is.  I would much rather see your son with kids his own age on a bike that size.

When he did the flat track at Eastbay they put him with the kids that were set up for flat track.  Anyhow we will be there this Saturday providing that it does not rain.

That sounds good in the youth class to have some more turnout i am really hoping to come to this one. :)

i have a crf450 do i have to run in the open class or do t my experience i can run in one of the classes for a 450.

If you want to race one of the money classes, then the CRF450 hybrid will be an OPEN class bike.
If you just want to race, you can run the hybrid in whatever other classes you fit in.

The day before the race- Friday, 11/2/07, there will be open practice. The times and costs are the same as normal Sunday open practices.

That would be the youth class brady was speaking of.

i hope you boys know we coming down    to open a big can of whoop butt in the pro class and the youth class   ;)

knk   you boys riding yam      after we leave the yam will be for sale and you boys will go buy some hondas ;D

lets dont forget about the youth riders we need some 50cc and 70cc riders and we do not have any women riders coming sorry

You mean peewee right?
Youth rider bigger bikes than those... :)

Yes, he means Pee Wee's

 No women riders? We heard the whole bunch from up around there was women riders..... ;)

how much is it to get into the gate and for a regular class?

the race fees willdouble after this week end when nc takes all that fl money ;D ;D ;D ;D

so what is the price going to be this weekend??

I guess we will ride the YFZ's for ya. Because I know you don't want nun of our Hond's So we will leave them in the trailer.

When is everyone planning on heading down from NC?

It is $7.00 per person at the gate.
Regular classes are $25.00 per class.

sneeky peek racing and vickory motorsports is leaving on thursday and a few more will be down on thursday some will roll in on friday and some on sat morining

i guess since yall going to ride the yam we decided that we would just bring down our 4x4 hondas now dont get upset  :'(

I am going to put all those bikes on the trailer with that suz, suz. Daddy coming to take your money ladies.

hair color helps you win      i guess yours is pink because thats what most little girls like   but when you see this ladies leave the line i hope you have plenty of color in your hair because you going to need it

what is weather looking like for the weekend   the high and the low  because us nc people dont have much money so we are going to sleep in tents and wash with baby wipes and my brother is a marine and he give me a bunch of mre meals so i guess thats what we will eat ;D ;D

I smell keyboard racers..    ::)

Man you were suppose to be our secret weapon, Thats why I did not mention you before

Well, I wasn't referring to you.... so thanks... and no I cant Quad race until December...
Its hard to be a racer and run the entire SFTL organization.....
Oh and dont forget I whooped you at the AMA race..  ;)

Because there wasnt enough people in the Vets class, remember... thats why we lowered the age from 35-33 was to get more people in that class so there would be a class.
One thing people seem not to understand is I was often a field filler. Keep in mind, I raced novice, Interm, and Vets at one time or another back when the fields werent as big as they are now (during the same season).. Open class has ALWAYS had enough bikes, no need for me to fill in there. I was never racing for "the points" but rather to have a racing organization, which we have never had before.
I seem to get picked on for trying to start classes for people to race in. (go figure).
I would have liked to have made more of the AMA series races but they were weekday races...
AND HOLD UP!!! DIDNT YOU RUN VETS TOO?...  :-\

Dave is planning on making the money race, I have to replace the head studs this week.....

Dang Wayne!
 Whats up with the hostility? I was just talking not getting rude... Time for me to grow up? Like the comment you made to me on the SFTL banquet stage last year? Or when we found out you were Tbowls little spy by you being a SFTL official then PMing other track managers league info...??  Or maybe when you would call me asking me to give you boy points he didnt deserve!  I have no clue what I have ever done to you to talk to me like that but it will be the last.

"US" got a mouse in your pocket?


1, Bullsh1T

2, We will "talk" next race.  Guarantee, if I had something to say to your face I damn sure will. Bet your ass on it.  At least you dont deny being a snitch and giving up league info.. Did you know that got us kicked out of Tbowl at one point? Im sure your fellow racers will like to know that. I knew you were a piece of crap but I was out voted. looks like I was right...  What a back stabber.... ;)


3, Well talk about that too and if you want to do more than talk... Im game for that too...

Now im done internet battling, we can talk at the track, or you can get my number from your side kicks..

Hey Brady , with all the classes that will be running sat. day have you thought about maybe a 1:00 PM starting time ? Just a thought. I`ll be there whatever time it starts regardless.  ;)

BS, not only was I told who sent the Pm BUT the Pm was forwarded to me.. and ALL the league officals saw the PM you sent. Ive never played anyone.

Ill come see you next race.....

sweet! Ive been ready for this for a year!  11/17 ill be there, just make sure you are..

If you guys need to talk I really dont think an open forum is the place to do it. Fighting at the race track would be stupid cause Brady will just toss your butts out. Not only that think what all the kids around there would think of it. Not wanting to stick my nose in it but chill out guys. Your both my frinds so dont make my take you boys behind the woodshed myself !  :cursing.gif :wink.gif

I hear ya Tim, Im just tired of him disrespecting me. Ive been dealing with him for over a year and today was the last straw. Ive NEVER said or done anything to him but yet he keeps pushing. Ive kept self control for a long time trying to be the nice guy and have got stepped on because if it, even after his comment as he walked past me on the stage and even after he got the entire league kicked out of Tbowl. Now the third time is enough...  Sometimes someone needs a smack in the gums to learn a lesson,
and schools in!! We can head down the street if he likes but ive had enough of it.

will someone please post that brawl on youtube?! :o i gots to see this!

Whats up Mr D   Come over to join in on some fun.

Are ya goin to make it this weekend?

man..... you just dont quit...  ::)

11/17 ill be there..

well bring your video camera just incase! dont want to take the chance of missing some action! LOL  ;D
i wanted to go this weekend but my parents have planned a trip to tenn. and i gots to go with them.
ya know i got to do what the parents want.... ::)
 but scott should be there. that is if his lazy azz comes and works on his bike! :-\
my engine parts should finnaly be here next week so i will be on the track with you guys soon for sho! 8)
all this engine work pretty much takes up my spare time so i got to make some time to work on my own stuff so i can come ride with you guys! be safe and have a great time! and PLEASE ya'll put a whoopin on dem NC peeps. they need to know how we do it here in the deep south! ;)

Damn, I come home from work, and WTF?. At first, I thought it was a joke, but as I read on, it appears you guys are serious.

First and foremost: The only thing that will happen at Thunderbowl on 11/17/07 is some good flat track racing. That's it. If there is ANY drama, we will bounce EVERYONE involved. I don't need that sh!t at my place. There will be no fighting, cussing, arguing, hollering. You guys are grown men, not 16 year old kids, so shut up already.

Second: If you girls have some year old beef that you want to work out, call each other, PM each other, meet up up at the corner, hell start a new thread, whatever. Just go somewhere else other than my TT thread. There's people from all over the country coming to this TT race and reading this to get race info, so I don't appreciate you two dix hi-jacking my thread with this childish bullsh!t.

Oh, and Tim, to answer your question: Gates Open@11 am, Practice@ 1pm, Racing@ 3pm

I do believe I offered him to call me....
But he wanted to keep it going.. It was civil until post #40 then I clued in that he was being an ass not just pulling my chain...

I agree, it shouldn't have been on this thread, but if you read back I clearly said I wasn't talking to him and WAYNE kept the fire burning... What am I to do?? let it slide again?? I think I have been PC with the banquet, and the Tbowl/league issues. I kept my mouth shut, but as I said.. this was the last straw.

I've said my piece on the issue.

Do whatever you feel you need to do.

brady   that sounds like my 5 year old and my 12year old  come on guys you to old for that  get on your quad and settle it

Are you going to open Sunday for practice as well as Friday ?

Im hoping to make it and wayne i will give u a call about the bike tommorow to see if i can make it to the race or not, but i will give u the detials when i call u

Yes, someone will be out there Sunday.
Probably not me. I'll be off spending all that money I won the night before. LOL ;D

Brady got  the early worm today..

You just don't worry about my worm.......

leave the worms out of it , they did nothing wrong.

What time will you open on Friday for practice Mr Brady sir ? 8)

man Tim is even going to make it out Friday look out.

Got to give the old girl a shake down man ! ;)

don't shake it to hard it might hurt

Thats true when it has a big ole plunger head.  ;)

Open for practice at 10 am.

come get your wippin from a stock p.o.s. practice will just wear your old ass out ;D

Keep runnin that tater hole under your nose atvthrob. I might just put you on your lid semi-old guy. :d

HA! Sounds like a challenge!

Rob, we all know you don't need any help ending up on your lid! LOL

 Dont worry racermom I have nothing for you fast guys. Shute I am still looking for my 1st victory. I change my hair color hoping to win, didnt help. Oh well I will be there tring like my mom told me to do. lol

that reminds me i need a lid , im dry ;)   also i think i talked one of my friends into running knobby class,he just got a quad,you are still running that class right?

Did you ever start the class that the 400's could run?

you can run in any class you would like. If you want just 400's I have one I can run with you. who else would like it?

Yes, there will be a knobby class.

And Yes, we have a class for 400's. It's called the "Sportsman" class. It's for 16 and up with a 400 cc limit. No 250R's, LT250's, or Banshee's unless they're BONE STOCK, pipes and all. It's basically an adult class for 400EX's and Z400 size bikes, since there's a million of these bikes out there, and it's not really fair to run them with the 450's. I thought it would take off, but it hasn't been very popular. If there are at least 3 guys with 400's that want to race we'll run this class.

HEY! WERE GONNA MAKE IT TO THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!! No crap, Im serious this time. Not one of our bikes is remotely set up for anything other than big MX so it will be very interesting. I told POP that I was going to race. But becuause im about to have cervical spine surgery, he told me that he would take the new big hammer than he has and beat my bike to pieces if I attempted to race. So, You boys get off lucky this time around. ;D

Little brother will be out there and we want to watch the race.

And I swear, IF you two retards fight at this track in front of my kids. Ill beat both of you down, because Im bad as hell and know it.

Love you both. xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo :-*

jt

There won't be any fighting, except for 1st place. ;D

Im not sure if Brady allows tools at his track. :L

I will be ther on my z400 to and i will run that class

Ummmm... we let you in don't we????

Oh yea. ???   

Jt you no me better than that I would walk away from it in a heart beat.

Boy it will be good to see the Todd family.

Quad32 man quit shaking that thing already your causing the trees to move.

JT don't forget them PHAT PURPLE shoe laces..

Ok already Wayne !  I quit shaking it ! :L

Quad,

Tools like myself are the reason that you are so popular. Without my Tool, I couldnt satisfy you!!!!!

I might just act like im not racing until we get there and then surprise POP. He acts like Im a kid. Im 34 for pete's sake.

Gonna be a great weekend.

jt

Remember you qualify for the Vets class at your advanced age there toolieo. :L

Damn guys you need to move this date so I can ride. ;) This is the weekend of my scariest race ever (getting married Saturday). :o Quad, will you rescue me on the alter with that big fat 500. :D I know it might make JT jealous but fuc*em. With that neck injury he can't bob his head like the good'ol days. :Y

Just ..................... DAMN ! 2:L  JT takein some smack down !  Congrats on your marriage Eric ! Dont forget to take the little blue pill ! ;)

Thanks, I'll take 2 blue one's. :O

Well the guys from up north weren't playin'. A crap load of 'em have showed up and have been practicing today. I saw pro's Chuckie Creech and Brad Riley out there practicing earlier.

The track is great, and the weather is awesome. Should be some kick azz racing tomorrow. ;D

Save me a spot for a 40' rv and truck please  ;D

When your an old bass turd like TRX9, and can still ride that good, You got the rights to talk all the smack you want.

jt

Went out for practice this evening and the track is in super shape !  Should be some great racing tomorrow ! :ThumbsUp.gif

Thanks Brady for putting on a good show.  We got out a lot later than I expected but it was still a lot of fun

I'll second that Brady ! Good show man , even though I didn't race It was still fun .

i was a spectator for the first time at tbowl and i thought it was a great show and was run great. as a racer yo could tell the track cared about the racers and the track.

i would like to see a afternoon tt races like the one yesterday that did not conflict with the ssqsa or dade city mx schedules s racers could have the best of all worlds.

if the promoters wold work together it will only help the sport grow.

if i can change my daughters b-day party i will be there on DEC. 1
when i come back i will bring min. of 3 tt racers

once again great show and hats off to the race track for a job well done.

Yeah I has a lot of funn!!  ::)

I think everybody had a great time and Brady puts on a first class show. Hats off to you Brady ! Looking forward to doing it again soon !  :ThumbsUp.gif

I feel like a truck ran me over. I'm ready to do it again.


Wayne, Hope the knee is doing better.

That was my first tt race and I did enjoy it.  I thought I would tire out for the last race but I did not even think about it until the race was over.  I will be back up to do again.  I need to get my son a bigger bike though the little ltz250 just wasn't fast enough for him.  I enjoyed watching him almost as much as being on the track.  He keeps rubbing it in that he has a bigger trophy   :D   :o

Ha !  Good for him ! Yea I saw him out there. He was giving it heck though ! ;)

Just a few pics! The dust made my pictures blurry and then of course it got dark!  :'(

Hope you enjoy the few that did come out! I had a great time watching as usual!

Great job Florida boys! You might not have come home with the top prize but you ALL represented VERY well!

Liz  ;D

Yeah I am looking for a new camera as we speak.  I do not have any picks of the races at night because my camera sucks.  Do you have any pics of the knobby class (I'm # 69)?  I see you have a pic of my son #42 in the youth flat track.  He was actually in the knobby class but there was only 2 of them.

I didn't take any pics of the knobby class...sorry! But I am sure Kurt did. He does an awesome job!!! Check out his pics at Kurtvogelphotography.com. They are reasonable in price too.

Yeah I have been to his site already, so far nothing posted from yesterday.  Thanks any how.  I see you have some of the youth class did you get any of #42?

Wheres the Vet class slow guy ? 2:L

Better watch that slow guy stuff. I got the bitter end of the stick lol or they would have given me the money. lol. Oh well thats racing. I will be ready when they come around again.

By the way my wife handles the pics.

It was hard to watch and not participate!!!!!! Its good that I couldnt race anyway. I feel that I can be competitive, but would have definately been outclassed last night. For those of you that think you saw some good racing last night- YOU SAW SOME UNBELIEVABLE RACING. Your average person might not realize it but there was some serious talent there last night. Any one of those boys could compete in the highest levels and probably do.

Awesome show guys!!!  Top notch crew!!! Very well done!!

Wayne- Hope your alright. Hope the pain pills came in handy!!!!!
Quad- Good to see you last night. You were riding well but caught a few bad breaks with the restarts.

jt

Thanks JT ! Man Im looking forward to seeing you out there again soon cause your a great rider and loved watching you ride at Sand Mountain kicking ALL that butt ! Good seeing your Dad again too ! Hope to see all yall agaig real soon !  :ThumbsUp.gif

Brady, great show Saturday night!  Everything ran so smooth for the amount of bikes that were there.  What was the total entry count? 

I gotta tell ya, watching Bud run down the leader and win the FT "A" after a bad start was worth the price of admission all by itself !!! Great Job Bud! And how about that 2nd Vet heat with Tim and Scott in a photo finish...... WTG Tim !!

Hats off to Brady for putting on a Great race (BTW Brady.... Your 92 LT looks SWEET !!)

Jim

Thanks Skully!  There's no doubt, Bud can fly.  I got a few pics from the race:

i know i know,i didnt show.but times are tuff in const. right now ,i had to save that $32 for food to get me through till next check. :'(.lame i know but its the truth.i heard there was some cherry pickers there anyway :o

This is what happens when you ride too close to Dave B. ;D ;D  Better give him his room. Here's a pic of the knee after 2 days, swelling has gone down a lot.

And my DUMB A$$ had to finish this race and another one I finally gave up on the last race.
Great job to all our locals. I think we will have a much better chance at the NC boys next time. They did not beat us by much.

Ouch  :o  that's gotta hurt.  Hope you're feeling better and back out there in 2 weeks!

Glad your ok Wayne. That was a nasty looking get off ! :o

I had to make a trip to the ER on Sunday afternoon once we got home to have some xrays done. Nothing broke just severely bruised and swollen. Surprisingly enough it does not hurt at all. It is just now getting a little stiff.

What the hell were you thinking. you know better that to hit David B. he's not all there between the ears...ha ha he even takes out his boys when he's racing. once the green light is on there is no friendship. Glad you are ok. next time hit him back...ha ha ha

   get yourself some of those soccer type knee cups that velcro around your calf, maybe that will help out if you get tossed again. I found a pair at OAS for $2 bucks. They sure keep the bruises away that I used to get from my knees slapping the tank in the corners. :)

Damn wayne atleast ur ight lol,I got some knee pads from the zuki dealer cheap,Hell maybe ill give u the pair i got....

  No, not much at all. I sure hope Brady sets up another money race before winter is over and all them NC boys are back in their season. I sure thought I had them all covered  but that leaky head just didn't quite make it. I can't wait for redemption. Bud put on a good ol Florida whoppin pickin them off one at a time in that flat track heat. Next time the money stays in the deep south! ;D   Anybody heard any plans on a second money race?

Thanks for all of the positive comments. I still don't have the score sheets. I'll get them today so I can post some race results. 
The racing out there was unbeleivable. The guys that came down are all top ranked, heavily sponsored pro, pro-am, and "A" class AMA national riders.
It is hard to put into words how great our local riders did against these guys, especially when you consider we've only run TT what, 5 times? I think Bud has raced TT twice?

ALL of the local riders deserve props for the job they did.
   

Here are the race results:
My descriptions don't really do this weekends racing justice. ;D

PEE WEE BIKE

Logan was the only bike. He ran with the quads and did just fine!

The Youth class was ran together. Their were 10 bikes on the track without a single problem, which is quite an accomplishment. Some great racing out of these kids as always. Tyler and Daniel both did a great job in the youth knobby class as well.

NOVICE QUAD
1st- #9 Brooks Williams, Honda 450R
2nd- #27 Paige Cowell, Yamaha YFZ450
3rd- #89 Arielle Raveling, Honda 450R
Our Novice boys were busy racing in the Open classes, so our ladies took care of business in this class, as well as their own. Paige actually won the first heat. Both of these girls are no joke, and could beat half the guys out there.

LADIES QUAD
1st- #89 Arielle Raveling, Honda 450R
2nd- #27 Paige Cowell, Yamaha YFZ450
3rd- #72 Lisa Cabana, Yamaha YFZ450
Man, the Ladies class is getting faster and faster! Our normal fast ladies were in for a surprise when Arielle showed up. Lisa ran extremely well and won the first heat race, but it was the Arielle show for the other two races. Oh, and did I mention she was on a completely bone stock quad? All three of these ladies are extremely fast. Our other local fast lady rider, Lauren, was conspicuously absent though....

VET QUAD
1st- #11 John Main, Yamaha YFZ450
2nd- #3 Justin Bucklew, Suzuki LTR450
3rd- #7 Randy Dinkins, Yamaha YFZ450
These results are for the Vet "B" class, I will post the results for the Vet "A" class as soon as I locate the score sheets. I know Scott Sheffield and good 'ol Quad 32 were bringin' it in their races.

INTERMEDIATE QUAD
1st- #123 Michael Blanchard, Honda 450R
2nd- #5 Shannon McClamrock, Honda 450R
3rd- #9 Brooks Williams, Honda 450R
This class was a North Carolina sweep. Don't feel too bad, our Intermediate riders were racing and beating some of the pro's in the Open classes. ;D

KNOBBY QUAD
1st- #999 Marshall Todd, Honda 250R
2nd- #69 Geno Stopowenko, Suzuki LTR450
3rd- #122 Dale Wright, Polaris Outlaw
The knobby class keeps on growing! Some good racing in this class, even though their tires have those funny bumps on them...LOL

PRO-PRODUCTION TT- MONEY RACE
1st- #27 Brad Riley, Honda 450R
2nd- #25 Chuckie Creech, Honda 450R
3rd- #3 Jeff Green, Yamaha YFZ450
This race was set to be awesome  race since Chuckie and Brad both won their respective heat races. However I don't think they expected to be pressed HARD by local rider Jeff like they were. He was literally glued to their grab bar turn for tun, lap for lap, just waiting for them to make a mistake. It was some AWESOME racing for sure. I should also mention local rider Dare Rambo came in 4th ahead of pro riders Garrett Jackson, and Giovanni "Big Air" Colon.

OPEN-PRO TT- MONEY RACE
1st- #27 Brad Riley, Honda 450R
2nd- #32 Bud Chancey, Honda 450R
3rd- #25 Chuckie Creech, Honda 450R 
This was another AWESOME race. Chuckie and Bud WENT AT IT for most of this race. It was some unbeleivable racing to watch. Bud was pressing Brad HARD for the lead, with Chuckie right on his tail. I don't think anyone even breathed during this race. Garrett Jackson followed up in 4th, with local riders Gary Sisson, Dave Bohnstadt , and Wayne Palmer rounding out the field.   

OPEN-PRO FLAT TRACK- MONEY RACE
1st- #25 Chuckie Creech, Honda 450R
2nd- #6 Travis Edwards, Yamaha YFZ450
3rd- #32 Bud Chancey, Honda 450R
This was a race that was totally up in the air. Chuckie Creech and Garrett Jackson ran well in their heats, as did Travis and Kirby Cooke. In the second heats the track had come in and Dave Ware and Dave Bohnstadt went straight to the front on the high powered 2 strokes. Engine troubles knocked both Dave Ware and Dave B., and several others out of the main, which left Chuckie, Bud, Travis, and Brad to go to war. These guys didn't disappoint. They traded positions lap for lap at over 75mph. These guys were Bringin' It!

Well, the track was great, the weather was awesome, and the racing was fantastic. There were right at 120 entries in 16 divisions, so it did take awhile, but all in all I think it went well. There were a couple of minor crashes, but no ambulances or helicopter rides were required.  All of the racers who were visiting from out of town were great people, very positive & helpful, and want to come back and race again. I think they were kind of expecting to come and just walk all over the local riders and take our money, which I think to their surprise, was not the case at all. All of the local riders should be proud to have run so well against these very fast guys.

Thanks again and see ya next time.   

 

Now if I can only get over my son saying, "I have a bigger trophy"  >:(  (He actually beat some of the kids with the tt set up)

I truly did have a great time out there, almost want to go and buy some real tires and a sway bar  ;D

Yeah, your kid did a great job! It's cool that he gets to razz you about the trophy. LOL.

 

Are the knobby class always welcomed now or just for individual cases?

We will run knobby classes at all of our races from now on, so come on any time.

A special Thanks to Brady for making this weekend a great turn out. I don't think everyone knows how much time,effort,and money you put into this.

120 entries, that's awesome, all that time and effort paid off !  Our boys, Scott & Austin were happy to see that many kids in the Youth class, maybe we can keep that class filled up.  They had a blast.  Can't wait until next time  ;D

 

hey do you know when your going to re-schedule the points race?

Sorry you only get one chance   ;D  lol

Our other local fast lady rider, Lauren, was conspicuously absent though....

Yeah you know us "OLD HAGS" guess I was just plain SKEER'D, haha, NOT
