Team Hell Yeah will be there and Team MXSouth.com will be too! 
Still don't know who is on what team, LOL!! Nonetheless we'll all be there to have fun and hang out with you guys.  :-*

we'll be there with bells on

I can't make that one............ :'( :'( :'( :'(

team lone-man will be there!!! just me lol

         team lawnman will be there too!!!!!!!!!!!! lets race boys.. brauuuuup!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D

sheesh i hope i will be there but the way my luck has been who knows!! haha. Hopefully i'll be there to throw roost in everyones face though.  ;D

Hey Kyle, make sure is just some dirt roost, not trees like it seems you have been figthing with lately . . . lol

all my friends race  ;D
But when i find new riding buddies im going to drag them to the races. Seriously, I've raced twice, and it has transformed who i am. It's given me something to look forward to and a new dream. God willing, I'll be battling it out with the best in the next few years and as long as i can hold onto the handle bars. This sport has CONSUMED me haha.

haha real funny luis. I'm crying on the inside because i cant race the GNCC.  :'( lol
I'm going to try my hardest to make Lorretta lynn's though. You and the guys going to try and race any of the other gncc's this year? I'm sure derek will stay put since he has a new born but i wouldnt be suprised if you and richard hit a couple.

See ya sunday!

Well if I survive this one here I'll be at the Georgia one the following weekend, same Dereck and will see with Richard . . .
Do you think your quad will be ready for Giorgia???

It had the same affect on me.

me too we have all been consumed lol

Please take a second to print a few copies of the flier. Take it with you. You never know who you will see that you could give it to and introduce someone to a great family fun day.
I stop and give them to anyone who I see riding or trailering/towing an ATV.

Please take a second to print some fliers and bring them with you. You never know who you'll turn on to a great sport.
This seems to be the course to race as everyone loves it so much so it would be a great first time for anyone.

yesterday while i as at a gas station(shell to be exact) i heard this guy say "my uncle's looking for a quad" so i asked him if he rode and he said no he didnt ride quads but he rode street bikes..dangit i thought i had one there for us.

jake

 :drive.gif ;D

oooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwww weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

shift shaft came in today, head is welded, a-arms SHOULD be in route, looks like i just might make it!! WOOOHOOO! Keepin my fingers crossed.

ill bring my hot glue gun just n case lol j/p

We helped out CFQR yesterday to finish up. 

It is going to be a fun course. 

Hope to see everyone there.

Ahhhh yeah...cant wait, havent raced in awhile

oooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee AGAIN :Y

so excited! I took friday off so i could do some finishing touches to the quad and hopefully get a little seat time in at croom. I got 4th last myakka race, i WANT first this time...and im gonna get it!!

Way to go Kyle, see you 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...

jake

welp, see you guys at QS#1, im not going to anymore races this series. Tired of crap braking, im doing a complete rebuild. Meanwhile i need to find something to ride. maybe i'll try out two wheels.

are you sure, thats a long wait.

jake

man that SUCKS dude...sure you can't make the last 3..then 4 months till the next one in Sept.

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.  ;D 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.  ;D  lol

so how was it??

172 entries.
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!

I know what you mean Brian..I lad in back of the truck all the way to Jacksonville and have just mustard the strenght to move it seems....between pukeing dirt out of my stomach, pissing blood and dealing with cramps it was a long trip home. I know it was all I could do to make 4 laps out there....rode to hard early trying to keep up with the young'un in my class..lol

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.

Mennn 4 laps is really good, a lot of those young punks didn't do that many lol. Hope you feel better now...

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.

Hey Matt, I was wondering what happend to you, I didn't see you on the last lap, Kenneth #7 won, Ken got 2nd, you looked strong and catching up !!!

Here is Matt

Brian

Here is Wayne "Southern Outlaw"

And Randall, first place "Open B"

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!! ;D

Congrats getting 1st place, Kenneth!! :Clap.gif :Clap.gif  :ThumbsUp.gif

That's cool!!!  Glad you had fun.  You made it through your first race.  Enjoy the pain of victory.  ;D

Randall is a freaking machine. That dude will be AA before he knows it.

Thanks, Kenz.  I'M STILL IN PAIN!!  MY WHOLE RIGHT SIDE HURTS MORE THAN MY LEFT.  WHAT THE...???

Yup! After that 2nd place finish at the GNCC i knew he had this race in the bag. Cant wait to get back out there and rub tires with ya man. Its been forever  :(

If you had fun, please let them know on the FTR site. Your thanks will go a LOONG way for many as that is all they will get.
Thanks
B

The second day is usually the worst, then in gets better.

I got around like an old man at work today.  Everytime I sat down for a while and  went to get back up everything was tight again.
Don't think there isn't a muscle that doesn't hurt today.  Ahh, the price of fun. ;D 

i had fun doing nothing instead of racing...... YA RITE, kills me too miss races(literally).

jake



by the way who won c-open,  if you know tell him he's lucky i wasnt there  :P

Congrats Randall! Glad to see they got ya scored right. Did you have to protest or did the score keepers get ya straight? You can't go pro though cause your starting to become my regular mechanic and just don't know it yet! See ya at the next one.

  Kids are great, but man am I missing my riding. First I had to sell the 400 because of financial problems, then got screwed by work, then car accident and neck surgery.
   I don't know if I'm going back to sport quads, but I'm getting a new quad in probably the beginning of June. You guys look like your having a hell of a time.

   Remember," A bad day of riding is better then a good day without riding!!"

Thanks to you and Frank Chino I'm hooked. I am a junkie and I'm perfectly happy with it! Ya oughta at least come out and watch.

Luis, Thanks for those pictures. I felt bad leaving you out there each time I passed. I don't know what the heck I did wrong.
I felt great for practice but at the start I felt like my neck was sunburnt really bad. I had a little bit of headache but just tried to shake it off. After three laps I was cooked and I pushed myself to finish the fourth, but could not. I made a good pass just before the finish line during the first/second lap by going through the creek. I passed 3rd and 2nd as they were going over the rocks. It was great!
I held 2nd for two laps when my body shut down. I could only watch as everyone passed me. I thought I was going to die. Serious. I walked to the ambulance and they told me what I needed to do, but I was worse off than they knew I guess.

It was nice to meet you bandita! Your husband was really cool too. You were really doing great. You had a great start and I thought you were going to hold back but you didn't!

Team Outlaw took the team win moving them within 1 point from team leaders MXSOUTH.COM. It is going to be an exciting finish right down to the wire!!

Someone came over to me after the race with their wife in a Rhino. I was sick and may have threw up in front of you. If so, I am really sorry.   :-X

Hey Jake, I told Dave( winner of C-Open) that he was lucky you weren't there as you had requested.He simply said he cant tell when your there or when your not. LOL  I'm just pulling your chain he said he's looking forward to racing with you at the next one. Good competition makes a good race.

Brian, that was me that came over to you on the Rhino. You looked bad, hope you're feeling better.

lol thanks man, ya the more competition the better. im looking forward to the next one two.
