I went to Gatorback one year in fact it was the 1st Week of  January. after finding iout how much it cost to get started, I just lost interest in following up. would love to run it, but I can spend $15.00 and drag race all day maybe even take home some winnings( I did  say Maybe)

I plan on making atleast 10 of the races. not sure how many QS races I will be showing up to.. Mostly I will be at the ones near orlando. I really dont feel like driving to the panhandle unless I have plenty of money. I mean, I dont want to get up there and break somthing.. Thats 7 hours there..Not worth it in my opinion.

Phil and I will be racing both the FTR Hare Scrambles and the new Quad Scrambles until the GNCC 06 season begins...then we will be at the FL races we can make it to.

Come on out everyone...it is a great time to meet new people, get a workout, and spend some time with your family - you know the children's classes have been formed!!! This includes you ladies out there...give it a shot...you WILL be hooked!!! The quad scrambles also have UTILITY classes - bring those machines out!!!!

Hope to see many new faces at the events this year!!!

The panhandle races are the best courses I feel.
There are little woops the scrub under the trees are different.
Its all around better racing.
Just go over the quad and tighten everyting the week before a race and check part that look like they are worn out and replace.

As far as drag racing.....geeeez anyone can hop up quad and race in straight line. Thats the first type of racing anyone does.
Now step up and try to race a 2 hour race thtough the woods. Just think of it as a fast pace trail ride.
Plus you get to ride areas that you will neve get to ride unless you are a FTR member... ;D

Its been 4 years since my first race and now I dont even ride with my buddies that do a leisure stroll through the woods.
Have new friends now that is all we do is haul butt through tight and wide trails.

Jen good plug for the Quad Series....The have peewee classes now starting at the age of 4.

For the past 3 weeks, I have been practicing with some A and B riders. I went out with stock tires, stock everything. Only ambition on my mind. I went an hour and 20mins without stopping on our 7 mile practice course. This was WITHOUT a camel bak. I now have one, and I know I can go longer.

I mean, im not saying that its not worth it. BUT me being only 17, I wouldnt want to get there with my parents and somthing happen and not be able to compete. I know you say "fast paced ride" but isnt it a "your own pace" ride? There is always going to be someone faster and someone slower than you. It really depends where they shine. 

"Start off slow, then give em' hell as you go." - Me
Or, "If its bogging down, your not going fast enough"

i wAS  planning on running most of them

but i dont know about the whole 96db thing  thta throws me off i am not gonna put my stock pipe  back on   and rejet and all that garbage.
i mean the gncc is 101db   i think its bs for  the ftr to make it 96db lol  thats almost stock

were is the first race at anyway?

my bike is like 47inch's  wide i  hope it is not to wide

47" is ok, I still run the stock pipe with the whole baffle in  and was able to win some races with it, and it tested at 94DB at the XC race in Chipley.
