WEll we went racing last night (flattrack) @ my son DJ's favorite track(Rainier) & all was going good even little man was racing!!! Trevor ran in the 80-90 mod quad on his LEM Condor 50 :eek: it ws just him & another kid, he was actually running the peewee but they put him w/ that kid since he was the only one there. He did really well for his 1st real flattrack on a big clay oval w/ that little quad he had it singing all the way around the track LOL anyway he ended up w/ a 1st place trophy :D so he was very happy!! Now as for DJ he ran his heat race & got 2nd then on the main he got the holeshot & was in 1st place & on the 2nd lap of 8 a kid & him got tangled in the 1st turn & DJ's quad high sided & went flippin & sent him about 10' in the air like a rag doll & he landed HARD on his back, he was knocked out for a few seconds & when I got there he was kicking & yelling for them to take his helmet off cuz he couldn't breathe!!!! They finally took it off & he got his breath, they checked him out in the ambulance & figured out he was OK, we figured that when we seen him kicking!! He got some nice road rash on his back & arm a sore wrist, & his NEW helmet(Thank God) got scuffed up, he was more bummed about that than anything :rolleyes: but I know if he wouldn't of been wearing the new one (HJC cs-x2) & his old Vega it would of came off cuz the strap was screwed up(he was mad @ me for making him use his BD $$ for it at 1st but not now) Sioooo once again THANK GOD for safety gear!!!! He's a little sore today but he's young :blah: his quad didn't take too much damage, right rear tire came off the bead, steering stem may have tweeked some, we still need to put it on blocks & check the axle though. BTW he runs those screw on wheel spacers & they didn't bend or tweek AT ALL & it came down HARD on the right side!!! It was good racing though I'll post some pics of the track later & lil man w/ his trophy ;) My brother rode a HOnda CRF450 bike & he rocked!!! He fell in love w/ the bike LOL, he has a YZF250, but anyway he got 3rd in heat & 1st in his main WHOOO HOO!!! NO I didn't race quad still isn't done :( I wouldn't of ran my main anyway after the crash so dint' waste any $$ :) I'm kind of thinking of taking it easy & just doing a few this summer & focusing on both boys so we'll see.
