[Knine]

I be there to check it out. I know they had practice today(Sat) from 9am till 2pm.

Are U going to be racing Sun.

[CurtisL]

i wish i would have! i was flagging, and then they cut my pay short because they got done earliar than expected, plus i could have easly ran with a lot of them boys, you see my boy mike clark killin it? he's a monster lol

[Knine]

I didn't head out there as Plan and decided instead to go test my knee @ A private track in Apollo bch....But, Yes that 16 yr.old MC is Awesome...

I don't know How old U are, But, If U feel like U can compete with those Riders out there U should be doing it...That's the way to Get As Good as them!:cheers:

[CurtisL]

i can run with a lot of the c class and most of the d class riders it just cost so much to go all around florida and follow the series, apollo beach off of big bend road? i know a guy with a track there, he told me i can ride it anytime, i have just never been out there lol

Ya, that's the Place.
When I'm healthy, I go out there @ least twice-a-wk.. it's a tight and technical track.
I notice U have a CR250...His track is a excellent place for practicing 'Clutch & Brake' Skills....I'm Sure It would make U even faster @ Sunshine!!!

Let me know if U want to go hit the track...

[CurtisL]

i race out there every sat, i won the beginner series overall last season, anytime you want to go let me know, thats my second home lol,

[CurtisL]

He has a "Sprinkler" System out there..

He's got 3rd gear pinned 85' double...
The Back Section of His Track ...is a Double, Double,Triple....

All I can say...It's a Tight/Technical..have to carry speed through the burms to carry U up the face of the jumps & over...

In 1 Word.."Frustrating" track... For me @ Least!

Calvin...could this track be run on a quad...id gladly throw in for maintenance...but are the jumps anywhere near even or wide enough for a quad?? if so...id love to ride it and as i said, id gladly pay for maintenance...

It's a Great Practice Track,2 Quads Side by side is doable going up the face of the jumps!

All I can say, If U want to be Fast on this track...U better be able to double, double, triple on the back section...or 3 things will happen 1) it will beat u up 2)U got to take easy/Slow in the back section 3)U take the rabbit trail
The 85' jump can be singled with some air under U.. which would/is fun for both 2w&4w .
After, the bac section , it goes into a Bowl Burm,then into small whoops, into another Bowl burm, over a small jump, then another jump, into a bowl burm, then over a small jump... then up the face of the 85' jump..into a Fast Sweeper....then the beginning of the back section again!
the whole track circles a pond..(riders have went into the Pond).



It's a Hard track to ride...But, hey!..that's MX..


Btw....Sundays he grooms the track...the rest of the days it is what it is!:buttrock:

I didn't go Sat ..So, I went out there Sun.

I got there around 12:30..Put my gear on and it Started to pour!
...It Stop raining after about 30 mins...Then I rode till 5..with 2 others.

Almost lost the Front end several times on the Sweeper(It was Slick, till those Ruts Formed)!..But, Didn't..it was a Good Day!



The Knee is a little Sore today!

The Track Looks Awesome(Front Part)....But, I'm not to excited...about the Section of whoops where the little pitbikes use to ride....That would beat me to Death!...lol

[CurtisL]

4th gear pinned, lean back and ride lol so fun, i wish i was there now.. riding sun 10-3 if you wanna join!

[Knine]

U would think ..they would have a Higher banked burm @ the end of the Whoops....Most riders were Stopping/Squaring off the Turn..to head bac through the other section of whoops!


My Knee wouldn't handle the Pounding!
So, I'm heading out to The Apollo, where I can chill and not get Ran Over...lol
