well.... for me bad luck struck early. was so pumped and excited friday, felt great! friday night we get to the races and i get food poisoning? some :cussing: gas station boiled peanuts is all i can figure. barfed a few times at night and morning. felt like turd. but was destine to race!! i hydrated as much as i could but couldnt eat. ran out of Pepcid again! will never again!!
so race time... still felt like turd... on line. of course...bad start! 1st lap arm pump. 2nd lap felt ok. 3rd lap was crashing on energy! had some good race battles. it was rough by the end!!!
hopefully someone go a picture of my superman!!! bahhh. in open field coming to double green turn with dip.. was running wide and hit another dip, lost throttle and about went over the front, was kissing bumper, then got a handful of throttle and was hanging on full throttle now with my legs straight out the back laying on the seat at full throttle cause i couldnt let off :eek: ... and was able to pull my legs back to the pegs.. saw Mindi and gave out a big WOOOOOT! happy to have survived at 4th wideout speed
ended up 4th place! again happy with the outcome giving the circumstances. a blast racing with good friends and family! feeeeeling it today :rock:

Good job Brian. Those "almost crashes" can really make you sore because you use every bit of strength you have to save it and usually really feel it the next couple of days.

holeshot my class and led for a couple of miles until it came to a stop with a rider from another class whos quad was upside down in some really tight stuff felt like forever to get going again and everyone was all caught up. was like starting the race again. ran 3rd for the 1st and fell to 6th for the finall 2 laps but was making up time on the last lap like i usually do but the race ended. the track really went away fast it changed every lap and really got rough.

For me I was the last one off my line. So I was 16th and rode crazy hard and caught the lead pack. Then I rode up on a big pile up and wanted to really get up in the lead so I tried jummping some log with all this debris and got stuck pretty bad sorry about the roost shawn lol. Anyways after that ordeal I foud myself in like 15th and from that point oon tried to chargge as much as I could and ended up 6th.

I hit the button on the start and it didn't fire. Two more attempts and was finally off the line. I was so late off that i was leader of the "C" line for the first couple miles...:tard[1]:Worked out good in one aspect as there is no way I would have believed that someone could really park an ltz450 on top of a fallen tree like I witnessed while waiting for a stuck rider to get going, if I had not seen it for myself. That was some funny shizit!! Anyway I hung a tree root shortly after and wrenched my thumb. Left me running sweeper after that. Good track though.

Hmm.. Who put you in that situation? Were you on the course? Did you really not see that 20 feet of caution tape that you basically climbed over to get in the said, bad situation? :thumb:
I thought about jumping off my quad which was on the course to assist however You were spraying so much sand and tree debris all over everyone i was scared to get too close...
Helpful hint for next time... If you get hung up and pinning the throttle, I don't know, 5 times doesn't free you, you are probably stuck! pinning the throttle anymore really is just burning fuel for nothing! I love you nephew!!
