So she took 2nd total huh?CONGRATS, my when i hit that guy and i poped my tire that sucked, heres what happened, i pased this guy on a ste-up and a double he passed me off the straight away cut in front of me through the whoops, he started tp hish tail it and he was about a quad length in front of me, then he dumped the bike i hit his rear end, my left front tire poped on we think his rotor, then without knowing i had a flat got back on the track, whent of this 30-40' table and my suspension compressed compressing the flat tire and it through me off crooked and i tail whip nose dived in to the table luckily i landed it very hard, but hey it alright i got some 20x6x10 holeshots for $100, but not in time for my seceond moto, but hey i got 4th out of the holeshot out of 14 people, and thats against a couple 450's and 2 250ex's and i dont remember what else,

SHOCKER
So whos sore? tron is your girl tired and sore? i know effinbees77 wil be sore for a week icon_wink.gif are you sore shovel_master? my bladder hurts, i really need a kidney belt
Shovel Boy
im recovered...im ready to wash it now
tron
My daughter is a little tired, but not too bad.

Shocker you shouldn't be racing without a kidney belt, and they are not as expensive as a video game. Safety first my friend.

KingGlamis has offered to post all the vids on db.com, so give him a p.m. to ask about it.

Dustin, sorry we missed you. Next time you can find me by my daughter's Blue Yam 450 #14, and her truck, a white standard cab GMC with all of the markings stripped off and Cadilac alum wheels. Glamis Brat is on the rear window.

Yeah my dad has 1 movie of half of my lap where i nose dived that jump to, it actually didnt hurt, i wish he got a pick of me hitting that table with a flat now, that hurt, oh and you have no pics of my holeshot? i got 4th out of 14, and i beat that guy with the 450 off the line thats why hes passing me, icon_smile.gif i need to work on the trythm sections and then i think i pretty much got the track down, im hopefully going sometime next week for a practice you guys should go
SHOCKER
Oh by the way you think that hurt, landing this with stock suspension is no fun, my feet hurt and my right ankle is sore, so is my back, its worth it, man my 1st atempt at the double its like a table but it still dips in the middle and it hurt pretty bad but my 2nd and 3rd try rocked, i love the air time and how it has a great lip that shoots you hihg, like all the other jumps dont feel anything like the double

Sorry, didn't have a much time to take pics this trip, was taking care of my daughter's bike. Got fairly good video of her racing, may post it later. I will probably bring a tri-pod out next trip and have someone shooting the videos, so we should be able to get everyone's race, and capture some stills from the video.

Make sure you get that kidney belt b4 next trip!

no pics of me???

what was your number? I'll look through my pics. also, you can buy them from the camera crew that was there, they have a website, but don't know it.
SHOCKER
Hehehehe icon_sad.gif no kidney belt for next trip, because my next trip might be this weekend icon_smile.gif my friend 85q he was on the red and black 250r this weekend with the red ranger next to me this weekend the 10th is the dirt days of summer sponsored by douglas wheels and he said if he can get 5-6 people they would make a open b class for just us, so im going to try and sell stuff and get some money to pay him for some gas and then to enter the race, there will be him and his brother and then their cuz and another friend then me, bring your daughter out and she can race with us, it will be onl us though no one else, i think it will be really fun, 5-6 or a couple more would be great, if ya can make it out, there will be a freestyle demo after the races of the bombsquad with hopefully a back flip from jon guetter, and if we do good in the races theres lots of money for prizes and i think there is free food, i will get more info soon

Tron & Shocker - thanks for postin' those pic's! I guess I do get a little air afterall. laughing.gif
Tron - Thanks a MILLION for the parts! I don't drink but I'll DEFINITELY be buying the beer & food for the next several rounds (no drinking while riding of course)icon_smile.gif.
And your daughter?!?! Dayom! 1st time racing.. Had you not told me that, I DEFINITELY wouldn't have believed that! She was flying out there and her & the girl on the Kawi DEFINITELY had the best race of the day - BY FAR! I think watching them two dice it out was more fun than being out there myself! Ok, maybe not. But still, tell her I said nice ride!
Shocker - Not sore one bit. I'm now starting to wonder if I rode fast enough. Well, obviously I didn't but, it was still fun. I think practicing on the El Cajon track on Monday nights has helped (you should try it). And Trons right... You GOTTA get a kidney belt. You should really be wearing every piece of safety equipment available. So sell your stuff for $$$ but instead of gas, buy a kidney belt.
Oh ya, " effinbees77 showing off atleast he got to race " You had PLENTY of time to get those front tires replaced before your 2nd moto. Either way, I'll be sure to bring spare rear AND fronts for the next round.

SHOCKER
i know but my mom didnt talk to me until after the race had started, so i was kind of upset, besides there was friken 12 others and thats way to many, now that i cleared that double im feeling alot better and cant wait to do the rythm sections
Shovel Boy
since i did the rythem sections, i feel more confident doing the big double
sandsnake1
Wow, I would be very proud of my daughter to jump like that on her first race. Looks like she is higher than some of the guys that were racing that weekend. Nice pictures, would like to see her in the air with the winning checkered flag, that would be cool, maybe next time. Hey, nice air effinbees.
RideSand
HOW MANY OF YOU, IF ANY, HAVE STOICK AXLES!?!?
SHOCKER
i do, with +2 a-arms and stock shocks, why? if ya want to race do it, your stock axle will be fine aslong as you dont have spacers on it
SHOCKER
get your bike back together for this weekend, or ify a cant go this weekend, most of us are going back on the 24th
Effinbees77
There's always the track out in El Cajon. It's more like a Supercross track and it's way fun! Quad practice is on Monday nights from like 5 - 9. They're working on having a Friday night race there for the quads too in the near future.
SHOCKER
Hey i dont have to have a membership to ride at el cajon mx do i? how much is it to ride there monday?
Effinbees77
IMSA are the people that used to hold the practices but they went out of business, bankrupt (per the guy at the gate). I still have my useless $20.00 IMSA card. Now, ECMX (I believe) is putting it on for now. As of the last few weeks, they do NOT require any membership. It's $2.00 for spectators and $20.00 to ride. It's open practice and the only bikes allowed are all quads and Vet motorcycles. Protective riding gear is all you need here. No additional equipment for the bike is required (No Nerfs, kill switch or # plates). You think the jumps at Elsinore MX were big. icon_biggrin.gif Wait 'till you ride here!
I can't make this Monday night but the following (19th) Monday I'll be there.
thor
there is a grand prix at RaceTown on the 18th....
