They told me that they are taking a 'Arial' of the track tomarrow!

Please, Let me know when U're going..I want to watch U hit the Combo double, double, double,triple or double it( or Triple, Triple, Triple)...then hit the burm come stright out of it into a Double, Double, Double, triple (or Triple, Triple, Triple)..into the next burm...and that's just the area where the Building for The Pit Bikes was!!...Then, where the Whoops were...there replace with Combo/tight smaller Jumps..:eek: :cheers:


That's the technical part...The rest is wide open "Big Boy" jumps!

Andy..How did u do in the 'rythem' sections? Like U said, it really didn't look to "Quad " friendly or even friendly! lol

When i was there today they still were building jumps across from the Start/Finish!

do they test your kill switch or just look to make sure you have one on the bike? I have one for the z but it is a open circut and I need a closed circut type kill switch, but I could just stuff the wires under the plastic if they don't check it:crackup:

andy give me a call next time you go out there and I'll go out there and atleast watch and take some pics!

I didnt even try.There were 3-4 A/PRO AM level quads out there and 2 of them crashed in the first section.

I respect that...

There's alot of things that can go wrong "quickly" in that section!

U have no other choice in my eyes @least but, to Roll it or commit to the combo of doubles (& u better be perfect in u're timing).

It didn't seem to me that u could even attempt to single ur'self through there.

Yeah , I can't wait to check out the track. I'm gonna get a few guys together to hit it within the next couple weeks. I wish they didn't start the point season on V-Day.

Yes & no. I fixed the electrical , but I've got a pretty oil leak , but I'm gonna try & fix tommorrow. If not I could still run it, just keep an eye on oil level. Most importantly, I think I'm gonna wait until tommorrow to decide because it's suppose to rain all day from what the radio was saying. I'll play it by ear.


I think we're going to Bartow this sat. I've a coulpe people besides any riding dirty members, that are suppose to go. But if I don't make it to sunshine this week , I would really like to make it next week, whether it be Thur. or Sat.
