I think ill ride like Chris Borich!

[Pappy]

Well thats what Codeman said before getting in some practice:devil: Seems somebody was watching mr Borich haul *** at the last race:D

[ReconRider25]

:macho i like the rims.:p

[batgeek]

the boy is lookin good, bike is too!!

engine mods yet? looks like he needs a little more power :cool:

[theTman]

:eek2: he is ridin on 1 wheel!!! lol both fronts r up...and that rear is up

[Pappy]

a little close up...check out how many tires are on terra firma:devil:

[Pappy]

I dunno what got in to him but he was rippin it up!

[AlaskaSpeed]

Cody is lookin like a pro...cool pic...:cool:

[Pappy]

He is pumped for saturdays race after missing last weekend

[Wired]

hey pappy instead of spendin all that cash on your new quads, get the boy some ridin gear :cool:

i bet he was in a hurry to get on the quad and just didnt put his gear on.... right??? :blah:

[MOFO]

something tells me he is not going to have many problems passing this time either... :eek2:


Lookin good Cody!!!

[Pappy]

lilman broke out his new ride and IT WAS ON!!:devil:

[brian-250]

youll ride like borich when ray charles(sp) sees me:macho :blah:

[JDiablo]

boy that quad is looking sharp....aint it time for a pipe yet pappy?

[Pappy]

Jon usually he is all suited up. when he came out with fire on his *** i made him cool it after 2 laps. if they are just riding i dont mind no gear (except helmets) but when they get to racing its all required:macho

lilman put Cody on the outside and wouldnt give up

[Pappy]

Cody went wide and they fought for the corner!

[JDiablo]

man it sure looks warmer over there then here....we got like 15mph+ winds...but now its not that bad and it is still light out so that means i will ride for longer:devil:

[Pappy]

lilman held his inside line but cody took the spot

[Pappy]

cody looks over and that was that!:macho

[Atreyu]

This should be moved to "Race Coverage" :blah:

[Pappy]

wait till i tell him the winner has to take out the trash:devil:

[Pappy]

cant you feel the love:confused: i heard there was talk of a rematch:devil:

[Out_Sider]

lol, man i wish i had that kind of quad when i was young :( all i got was a bicycle....but thats changed now, buts i find it so fun to watch kids ride..i just like hearing there "i smoked him" stories :p

As long as they have a helmet, and maybe golves, they should be fine.

I've been riding for over 4 years and never really wore gear except a helmet and gloves.

If I was in an actual race, I would get all the proper gear.


Awesome pics, btw.

[Pappy]

ill be glad when he can get on full size quad....but until then i enjoy the mini's:p

I think Cody could hang with taco at da hatfield..:macho

[Pappy]

He wants to challenge Taco to a race :devil:

[Pappy]

and where do you guys think i get all my practice for shooting the pro's:confused:

[Pappy]

i geuss i cant punish him too bad else he will run me over:( :blah:

[Pappy]

and he still has a ways to go before he can run down Chris;)

[redroost85]

Ahhh, nothing like a lil back yard action!:p

The boys look good rippin it up out there.....now let's throw that 450r into the mix!:devil:

How's he like the new shocks..:confused:

[Codeman]

Lilman wore my butt out today:p I f i can ride like that at the race on saturday then I think I will have a good shot at being first.

My dad has the quad hooked up! It handles perfect and I can fly thru the woods. The shocks feel great I dont feel much at all now and I can stay on the gas. My dad crosshatched my thumb throttle lever (thanks dad) so now my thumb doesn't slip when I hit rough ground.

The new tires and rims are really working well for me. I can get hooked up in a corner now and power out of it. The wider front end is working awesome.

Let's just hope that I can keep my head on straight and win a few races!



Cody

[Berry]

hey pappy its lookin good! what shocks are those? and are you going to do any motor and exhaust mods?!!

[Codeman]

I rode with Mr. Borich 2 weekends ago:o Who did you ride with:confused: :devil:

[Codeman]

Berry, we are running works shocks at this time. Once we get the quad figured out we can then measure for the elka shocks and my little brother will get the works.

[batgeek]

i have faith in ya Codeman!!

damn Pappy's posts like this make me want to have kids myself...

until then, i guess i'll just have to "practice" :D

[WEEZIL]

I am sorry but i cant see anything besides little yellow and red streaks.. :confused:

[hsr]

those front tires sure do bow in quite a bit? do they come stock like that?

[Kilabanshee]

Codeman go show them whos boss! Pappy nice job on the mini I hope those kids realise how lucky they are to have such nice toys at that age.

[Chef]

I say, bring it on cody! :p

We installed hetrick +2 a arms. its a single arm suspension so there isnt any real adjustment to them. i was concerned but they have been doing fine. no push in the corners and they arent twitchy at top speeds

acually if you were my dad i'd be getting 100s on everything to...i do good in school just because..not because i want my parents to buy me stuff..i buy my stuff and my parents help out....i wanna grow up knowing i payed for something by myself..not my parents buying it for me.

relax junior, and remeber ..."thou shalt not covet"

:rolleyes:

[WhiteBros400ex]

Dang pappy your sons rip around the track:D where are they racing this weekend? If you go to the raush creek ride this summer you should bring them, lol if i see you again this time ill acutally talk to you now that i know you wont bite:) BTW my names Aaron k

[outacontrol31]

His quad is already nicer than mine and ive been fixen mine up for a year. dang

hey pappy you gonna teach him the ways of powdercoating so he can powdercoat anything of his he wants cause he could end up with a realy trick bike, not that it isnt already:D

[Pappy]

we arent doing any pc until we get everything right. no sense in having to weld tabs, cut off tabs...weld on nerf mounts etc ...much less make parts as we go along if its all bling'd out.

now this fall.....i think we gonna show how a mini should be represented;) :devil:

yea high skewl aint to cool with me and grades...although i started off the 4th marking period on a postotive note:devil: but noone cares so idk why i say it:huh

[cheetah]

Way to go Codeman!:macho Lilman is no slouch either the way it looks. Keep up the hard work in school because it makes life so much easier through high school and if for some reason you can't grow up to be a pro on the circuit, you still have something great to fall back on. Keep practicing and never give up.

You gotta reward them, I think it keeps them in line and motivated, my daughter will graduate next year having 4.0 since 1st. grade, my son has had straight A's until he got addicted to some online games and they dropped and momma took away his computer and he straightened right up ,now he is 14 and making gaming maps and selling them and making money early,toy's are nice but grades are where it is at for the future,hell I wish I would've studied more , too late now,but I make a good living being a Journeyman Hi- Voltage Lineman, you 're on the right track Pappy,KUDO's to you for raising them kid's right;) (by the way no fuzz here just gray coming my way)

I love to see the kids out racing....my kids love to ride, and just started racing this year (7yr and 2.5 year old) my little one, just got his first quad (lt50).......maybe was a little premature!!!...oh well he likes it!!

[mmills023]

Pappy what do you think of the E-Tons?....have you had a chance to compare to the Kasea?...Just wondering what you thought


Mike

[Pappy]

i dont have alot of first hand expierence with the kasea but it is a great quad and is probably one of the best to buy if you plan on modding it for racing

[Pappy]

this is mrs. pappy,
my log on name isn't working so i'm undercover as pappy!
i am extremely proud of both of my kids. i couldn't have chosen more perfect children if i could have ordered them from a catalog. they have the utmost respect for their father and i not to mention each other. they are able to see both sides of every bridge they cross and strive to be the best they can no matter what it is they are doing. not spoiled, just worthy! thanks for all the great comments!

bridget

[DangerousDean]

thats so cool, it made me smile :)

When i was out a couple days ago, and tehres was a famliy with they're kids , mini raptor and mini honda they were having so much fun.

I love seeing the kids out, and its even better seeing them wearing there helmets.

and ive had buddies geared up from head to toe and still died. the point is that they have atleast the minimal gear required for safety while riding in my sight and with each other. if we go to a track or when other riders are present they are geared up 100%

and the cpsc can kiss my ***. they wont be coming on my land i promise you that. and as far as laziness? it must be a california thing to tell everyone else how they should live. bugger off mate:cool:

[Pappy]

i geuss he shouldnt hunt either:confused:

we have been getting along long before someone made up rules on how to raise kids in the country.

[Pappy]

8 wasnt young enough? how about when he was 6 taking his first deer with a rifle. trust me, he will do just fine in the real world...will your kids be able to do for them selves or will they be society dependant?

Whoa there Pappy, I'm just stating my opinion. That's it. You will obviously dress your kids as you wish. They are your kids! California actually has a great deal to offer its people. I've hunted deer, pheasant, quail, duck, caught every type of fish you can imagine, frog gigged, 4 wheeled, ridden motorcycles, snow skiied, you name it, all since the age of four and I started my kids at some of these things at 18 months old. I didn't mean to ruffle your feathers Pappy and I apologize.

[Rrider4life8]

that quad is PIMP!

[Pappy]

no prob norcal...

ive just had a belly full of people telling others what they can and cant do. ive managed to raise myself..2 brothers and now 2 sons on my own without a government or some governing body telling whats safe and whats not. the cpsc is a hose bag operation that should be dismantled and recharted to be run by non-governmental employee's:macho

i too have seen so much stupidty when related to atv's and kids but all the preaching in the world wont stop it. its nature's way of weeding out the shallow end of the gene pool. it really sucks when ya hear about some 14 year old kid that ran off the road and got killed on an atv...but my take is...WHERE ARE THE PARENTS:confused: as everyone can plainly see i provide supervision to my children an it will continue.

[BIGRED400]

Not to change the subject but ,I'm thinking of getting a Toy-Hauler in the future,and was curious ..................................... What do you haul all of them fancy toy's with??
BIGRED400:confused:

[Pappy]

i have a 7 x 12 open deck trailer and dodge hemi 2500. im supposed to be buying an enclosed trailer in the next few weeks so i can keep them outta sight and me out of the weather at the races and rides

[mmills023]

i could agree more with your statements Pappy....I am so sick and tired of people telling me how to raise my kids...and the people that are usually doing the telling are the ones that are not involved in the lives of thier own children...providing they actually have children. I (er....we...have to include my wife!!!) take my kids everywhere with us..camping...fising (i cant fish even)..riding...boating...you name it...

I think it is sad at times to see some of my childrens friends whose parents dont do anything with them....let them play with no supervision....its hard to teach your children the right thing to do when there are so many around him/her doing the wrong thing...but by being involved in thier lives i hope to provide them with all the tools they need in life!!

Good job pappy....i dont even know you and u make me proud..

PS...u mentioned the Kasea...but dont you have e-tons??

[BIGRED400]

I have a Suburban and a 8X16 open trailer, been thinking of buying a Cargo, and converting it like this one
stout frame square tube steel frame skeleton
http://www.roadmasterllc.com/campmaster.html
but I don't know it can be done alot cheaper but alot of work
the campmaster is nice but the water holding tanks are aweful low if you climb under them
Looked at the Toy Hauler but it's not too stout frame -wise alum/lumber........would'nt take much for me and the boy...but Momma and the daughter gotta have the luxury stuff...Oh Well

[Pappy]

lil braff....

middle school ..1st and 2nd term..straight A's:D

[Smokin 440]

I know this threads been goin on a long time, but i just wanted to say how much it impresses me. I am jealous of your kids and their ability to do it all, i have all the bases covered besides school b/c i only pull B's & C's. It's just so impressive to see a 10 year old with so much abilty. You and your wife sound like awesome parents, and thats what gives you kids the edge... My theory on raising kid's will be just as yours is. One question, when Cody gets older whawhat are you going to do when he wants to go out every night, or have parties???

[Pappy]

Originally posted by Smokin 440

funny thing, cody told my wife a week or so ago that he will be needing to save for his own car because he doubted he could bring himself to ride with any of the kids he knows simply because he wouldnt trust thier ability to make the right choices or be responsible enough for him to want to ride with them:eek:

he is a good kid, we will cross those bridges when we get there. all you can ever do as a parent is your best and hope and pray that when an issue arises that your child will make the appropriate choice.

my dad allowed me full reign over my life, i did some crazy stuff but i knew where the limit was. i can still hear his words..."ask yourself what i would do in that situation":o seemed corny when he told me that but damn if i didnt hear his voice alot :D
