Well i'll be there all weekend, won't be racing, stupid broken wrist. This year should be interesting, they just rebuilt a chunk of the track and put in a 100+yard strech of sand whoops, and this past weekend, Gust came down and ran our local race and even he had sum issues with them:eek2:

Hey I'll be there, racin womens b/c. I also raced there last weekend and that track is awesome! The new whoop section is pretty tough but fun. Yup it was cool ta see Doug whoop up on some locals. He is soooo fast. Can't wait ta see the pros race there. There was some serious carnage in the quad a / b race.
That canyon jump's a bigg'un.

You wouldn't happen to have been the one on the white 400ex?? My friend in moto 1 in B class broke his collarbone on the double double on the last lap. There were four quads and four riders all over the track at the same time, its defiantly a big jump, its how i broke my wrist also. Well assuming your the girl on the white EX i think i have a pic of you from last years LOL race at dutch, enjoy

Hey Ya that is me Cool pic thanks! Dutch track is soo much fun I really like it and will definitely be back sometime this year.

At Red Bud: That double double is pretty intense to watch I never did it but it sure was collecting quads at 1 point 2 quads were crashed out up there tangled with each other and then in comes another 1 right into the 1st 2. No yellow was out I noticed.

Did ya happen to see the guy that high sided his quad on the tunnel turn and fell off his quad to the bottom and then his quad fell on him upside down from like 10' in the air???? I hope he's OK.

and Hey Katelynn, I have never been to Red Bud until last weekend so I don't know if it's the same or not... Sorry. No one said anything about it being any different tho..
lookin forward ta meeting all you quadgirls. Met a few last year at Casey which is the only national I've ever been to so far.
I am also on a 426ex - #696:devil:

Weather: www.wndu.com is your best chance at a decent forcast, from what i've heard its supposed to be in the 80's but there's a chance of rain everyday between now and sunday.

Those two quads that were stuck together on the double double, well one was my friend and he started the pile up, and yes the yellow flag was never out, the flaggers are morons:mad: I've only done the double double a few times, the first time i did it i about crapped my pants:huh I didn't see the guy high side the turn, i was actually sitting down by the double double for the 2nd moto, i saw the medical team running down the hill, and wasn't sure what happened.

Dutch has also added sum crazy lips to there jumps compared to what they were before, i'll have to find my pics of them. As for last years LOL race i crashed twice and about had everything go wrong, i got last in my class

Roostin_Dale... yep that's me. So far this year I've been racing district 17 races at Byron and Walnut except for redbud last wknd. and doin a lot of practicin. Tryin ta get ready for some nationals. I've raced 10 races in 7 weeks and haven't raced a woman yet and I'm pretty excited about it. I know there's some fast girls out there.

Jordan...yeah that flag chick by the double double should have that yellow flag stuck up her *****. That was pretty dangerous.

All I want for this weekend is NO MUD

if there is enough rain will they cancel the race???

looking at the forcast chance of rain on sunday with t-storms, what would happen, would the promotor cancel the pro races as well as the other races???

they postponed the second moto at the last GNC due to the rain, but the pro's actually made the decision have the second moto, I'm sure it depends on the promoter
