[Dupontster]

We are going to be racing there for sure....Twisted, If the weather is nice this weekend and if I get my front brake pads on I might be able to make it this weekend. I've been wanting to get down there and ride with you guys but the weathers been crappy and i've been getting the 400 ready for racin. Keep me posted.

[TWISTED]

Cool!! My buddy's dropping of his loader tomorrow night so I can get an early start on Sat. We rutted the track up pretty bad last Sun so it'll take me all day to straighten it out and maybe add a few things. I'll send you a pm with directions and my #.

[Dupontster]

I see August 16 & 17 are listed as race dates....That is a Tuesday & Wednesday....Ya think it is supposed to be 26th & 27th?....I was marking my calendar.....

[TWISTED]

Probably. I'll check with the race director and get back with you. I'll send you a message tonight about this weekend. Everything looks good for Sun.

I am sure a few people may have something to say about that. lol

[pgregg85]

#88 you keep the gold trophy, we want the green

[Dupontster]

Can the rookie get a little green too....?

[pgregg85]

Its free game for the takings, everyone has a shot

[TWISTED]

This sounds real good!! I'd like to see them have enough pros to have to qualify. It was close a couple of times.

[Dupontster]

No pro here....100% ROOKIE....I need help too....Lookin at you guys for guidance....:D ....I be a Novice....:blah:

[#88yfz]

Nothing like getting the fire started,but i'm going to work hard on get a little green myself.If i don't i'm sure i will learn alot.

[Delaware152]

#88...Seaford is going to be open this weekend. I am not sure if I am going to make it but I know some other guys are going to be there. I don't have a bike that will run...hopefully I can figure something out tomorrow. If not I should see you soon.

[#88yfz]

I'am finishing moving this weekend my house is sold.Moving my quad into new shop at parents house for work area this year.I want to get the bike done to start riding again!!!

[Delaware152]

I thought you didn't have things together but figured I would let you know. I am trying to get things together myself...waiting on parts.

[#88yfz]

The bike is still stock but parts are kind of laying around and need to be ordered and put on.Just alot going on, but its getting under cotrol day by day.Can't wait to ride again.May just ride it the way it is for practiceuntil everything is in.

[Delaware152]

You getting JD and Elka's. I have a set of PEP's on order...hopefully I will get them the end of this month but you know how that is. Are any guys your way going to Budd's this weekend.

[#88yfz]

Elkas definately,a-arms and swingarm i'm not sure yet i want a good reliable set up me and cliff are looking into every option.I'm sure nick shupe#133 will be at budds this weekend and one c rider new guy on cliffs old yfz ,sean.Everybody else is still getting ready with a little practice.But everyone seems to be pumped for this year.

[Delaware152]

I think Kevin Lusk may be going this weekend. I just want to ride for a few weeks. I turn 30 on Tuesday so at least I can get a little more track time if I want to. I may make it down there the last weekend of Feb depending on the weather.

[#88yfz]

I have not talked to everyone but i imagine they will be there by the end of feb. also if the mud and bad weather doesn,t leave.I think i,m going to the danville national also this year.What about you any race schedule for you besides D7.

[Delaware152]

I would like to do a few nationals but it's tough for me to get the day's off work. I will probaly do some of the district races and I hope to get down to Miller's Tavern. My dad says forget the district and race wherever I want to. I am not sure about some the district races in BFE PA.

[#88yfz]

Yeah disrtict is not as important to me i'm going to race the budds,seaford,and va. races. I will race millers to, and i will race were everybody else wants to go.I really just want to get better and have a equally competitive bike to see how it effects me.

[Delaware152]

You will do fine...you finished top five last year. Most of the guys you raced with..beat last year and others you ride with all the time. You don't need alot of motor work. I have a stock motor and I got decent starts most of the time and I am bigger than you. I remember giving some start tips last year...forget everything I told you. lol

[#88yfz]

No i didn,t forget one tip or gate pick either.Just need a good gate pick number to take your spot.LOL
I just need to get back on the bike,i,m not getting any motor work just freshen it up for the year.
I do apreciate all the good advice best year i ever had racing.

[Delaware152]

I was afraid of that but your on your own now. lol

[#88yfz]

Come on one or two little pointers won't hurt your a good half track ahead of everyone let us get little closer!!
Hope your daughter is doing good mine is growing like a weed.
See ya soon,got to get some sleep she'll be waking me up early to eat real food finally no more baby stuff.

[Delaware152]

Your own your own now. Maybe now I can run an extra class I will get faster..wishful thinking lol. My daughter is doing good. She has a powerwheels quad so she is already practicing. We push her around the house...look out in 4 years!!!

[TWISTED]

Made a mistake on the Aug dates. The correct dates are Aug 12-13. Thanks Dupontster for the correction!!

[D-7#61-450r]

Hey Gary.
April 30 practice day?
I would really have expected more from you. Diggers going to be at budds along with any other serious atv'er. Including you. make it the week before and it would be sweet. a day to practice inbetween Nats.

[TWISTED]

Yeah I know. They were supposed to schedule everything clear of Nats. D-7 and D-13 races. Guess somebody made a boo boo. I'll definately be at the Creek that weekend. You back together yet? What kind of shocks did you go with?

[TWISTED]

Help me out Scottie!! See if you can't arrange the week before Budds. Strictly Quads!!!

[D-7#61-450r]

Quads only and I'll mark it on the calender if not well lets not go there.

Hey Twisted, how come I haven't gotten an invitation to ride at your place.
and not together yet maybe in two weeks I have to call CT3. and place an order still.

[TWISTED]

You're more than welcome, but it'll bore you fast guys. Nothing big at all. I call it a work in progress!!

[D-7#61-450r]

Fast yeah, I can drag my quad out the garage and to the end of the driveway hows that for fast. It is just going to have the intimidation factor I hope.

[#88yfz]

Yeah a week before budds practice would be excellent,fresh out of danville into millers then to budds.

[#88yfz]

What exactly is the intimidation factor i don't think i have ever seen that before!!!!!!!!!!!:devil:

[TWISTED]

Where's everybody goin this weekend?

[#88yfz]

Really not sure where i'm headed selling house this week.Some people are heading to budds.I'm firing the yfz up and shredding something up!!!:macho

[#88yfz]

Where you at Intimidator:blah:

[TWISTED]

ATTENTION.....#61 IS NOW #3 FOR ALL INTERESTED PARTIES... THE INTIMIDATOR HAS BEEN REBORN!!!!

[#88yfz]

TIME TO CHANGE YOUR SCREEN NAME :bandit:

[Scottie Mac]

Concerning Miller's:

About the April 30th practice, not going to be moved. I have to work the weekends of the 2nd and 16th. On the 9th, I have a 10K to run in Richmond. The 23rd & 24th I have a Jet ski race, so we are kind of stuck on the 30th. I know most of you guys will be at Budds, but what can a brotha do? That is why we decided to add another practice, May 21st. I won't be there that weekend, but Shannon will, so things will be under control.

One change all of you should be aware of is that this year, only Friday's races will start at 7:30 PM. We have decided to move Saturday's schedule up a couple of hours, so practice will start at @ noon and races will start at 5:30. Being out there until 1 AM both nights was just too much for us to deal with.

As for the track, that is still up in the air. If I get my way (doubtful) there will be a few changes. But, more than likely, what you saw last year is what you will get this year.

One last thing, at the last race last year, there was some confusion (because of a mistake I made) concerning pay outs. At both practices, we will have the info on payouts, classes, restrictions, etc. There will be no grey areas this year. I always tell everyone who races Miller's that we are all volunteers, so no BS, from us or riders. I want everyone to have fun and enjoy themsleves.

I think it is going to be a great season. I have heard from a few people who are pretty fast from D13, and I am reading here that some of the fast D7 guys are coming, I woudl love nothing better than to have to have qualifiers.

If anyone has any suggestions, or questions, feel free to drop me a line via email.

Sincerely,
Scott McKenna
Race Director - Miller's Tavern

[TWISTED]

GO DALE..... I MEAN TERRY!!!

[#88yfz]

Dale has left the building!!!!!!

[TWISTED]

I'd love to see the guys viewing this forum now at the line on the 1st weekend of Millers. I'm gonna sweeten the pot myself just to see these big boys go at it!!!

[#88yfz]

The way everyone is pumped up about racing this year don't be surprised at what you see everybody is ready.

[TWISTED]

If they get a FULL gate that Sat. I'll sweeten the pot for 1st place out of my own pocket. I wanna see some good racing. Spread the word to the rest of the Mafia!! This is for the pro class. I'll make it worth the 1st place rider's while!!! This is me talking not anybody associated with Millers. This is my own contribution!!!

[Delaware152]

#88...You guys need to come over my way this weekend. You don't have to leave as early, you get to ride more and it's cheaper.
Twisted...That is why I hope to make a few races at Miller's. You guys actually give quads respect. We are not a waste of time that trash the track.

[TWISTED]

I ride too, just not as fast I'd like too! Come on down. I look forward to giving 1st place my money!!

[TWISTED]

JT, you need to drag Attix down here too!!!

[D-7#61-450r]

Ya'll callin me out when I'm sleepin. Man Oh Man. I am far from the intimidator, I just mean my bike will look fast and then you will see me ride and realize how much practice I really need. Can I run C class again.





















Not. I wouldn't even think of that.:devious:

[TWISTED]

What class you gonna run at Millers?

[D-7#61-450r]

I might be like you. An alternate.

[#88yfz]

Stop all this slow talk get the bike done and you will be right back up to speed and faster.Maybe race novice fist time or two then pro all the way DALE!!!!!!!!:macho

[TWISTED]

I might try the am class a couple of times. All depends on the crowd.

[#88yfz]

I didn't think you liked to race that much.

[TWISTED]

Don't. But gotta try atleast once. I raced one moto last year on a borrowed yfz. Got third

[#88yfz]

Its always good to race and enjoy it!!!Its also good to enjoy all the points of atvs also. Like the pro class this year in gnc is sick!!
Where you at #61???????:confused:

[D-7#61-450r]

This Dale stuff has to stop!
For your info you must not have talked to Cliff tonight did you?

[TWISTED]

The points race this year is gonna be SICK!!!! Who's your pick for the title?

[D-7#61-450r]

I'm gonna go with 13

[#88yfz]

#61 i talked to cliff,did you order your shocks?I'am ordering mu hood and the shed came today also.
My Pic would be tim after seeing the first round but 708 the bee is my rider this year and ellis.

[D-7#61-450r]

88 will keep you on here all night cause there will be no sleep for him tonight.

[TWISTED]

Good pick. 55 for me. Imagine that....

[D-7#61-450r]

CT3 will be recieving a full payment thurs. afternoon.

[D-7#61-450r]

Yeah i figured that twisted.

[D-7#61-450r]

I may have worked a new deal on some scalloped beadlocks also.

[#88yfz]

Sounds good on the shocks,but i will sleep sooner or later,I mean if i,m going to win at millers tavern all year i need to sleep!!:muscle:

[TWISTED]

I noticed he stays on here late but lately so have I. This gets addicting sometimes. You guys saw what I said about the pro class at Millers didn't you?

[#88yfz]

He went for the deal!:bandit:

[#88yfz]

Twisted i saw what you put down i will be practicing may 21 down there with others.This stuff is addicting as riding.

[D-7#61-450r]

Yeah buddy. Its hard to pass up. Now I need new rear holeshots.:D
You won't be able to sleep till tom. after closing. but you will still be wondering on what to buy then.

[TWISTED]

88 Did you buy another bike or add on to the old one?

[D-7#61-450r]

Twisted just give the cash to me and 88. You know we're good for it. We'll even let you ride our quads. Maybe even a Mafia membership.

[#88yfz]

Closing is moved to friday at 12.I thought you all ready had 9 tires.Don't forget he had trouble getting them to hold air but it was probally installer era.
No new bike just getting revamped!:eek2:

[TWISTED]

Nah... You gotta get in the ring and earn it!!! I'm trying to create one helluva race. As far as the membership goes... I'm a loner.. Not into the family thing...

[D-7#61-450r]

They are old holeshot MX. and they are the practice tires and wheels. Installer error thats great it might have a green stick in the bead. J/k

[#88yfz]

BIG MONEY HAS PRACTICE TIRES AND RACE TIRES SOUNDS GOOD!!
Twisted you have benn spottedwith the mafia and riding with the mafia no escaping now!:devil:

[D-7#61-450r]

Later ya'll I gotta go and get some sleep. I gotta big payment to make tom. and thats alot to think about. So I'll go and sleep on it. 88 you better be making a large order on monday JD is waiting.

[TWISTED]

I was spotted being in the Mafia's way. Is the Godfather gonna bless Millers with his presence?

[D-7#61-450r]

<---------Big money. Yeah we'll compare reciepts next week Hyper 88.

[D-7#61-450r]

at least when we roll in this year we won't look like the poor boys we did last year.

[#88yfz]

The god father will be there everyone wants race and ride alot this year!

[#88yfz]

[TWISTED]

[D-7#61-450r]

105=jeff,32=butler

[#88yfz]

Exactly #61, There should be a second row with that many bikes staggered start right behind first gate stadium style.:confused:

[D-7#61-450r]

If anyone thought the Mafia was big last year wait till March 20.

[TWISTED]

NOPE!!! Two qualifiers with an LCQ I hope. You guys just get a crowd there. That's the important thing. Catch you guys tomorrow eve.

[D-7#61-450r]

Oh yeah if pete ever fixes peewee's quad he may even make a comeback.

[#88yfz]

Yeah your right maybe a comeback see ya tommorow.
LCQ good enough for me.

[pgregg85]

You guys should come to harrisburg and race this weekend. They have a production expert and an open expert class. If you run both classes you have an opportunity to bring home $1000. for the weekend.

[TWISTED]

Paul, You are gonna be at Millers for the !st race aren't you? Maybe you can get my money!!!

[#88yfz]

Of course paul will be there he said he is taking the money:devious:

[pgregg85]

I am sure I will make at least one appearance there.

[#88yfz]

One appearnance come on paul, you can do better than that!!!

[TWISTED]

Try and make the May 28th race. That'll be the one!!!

[lil400exdude]

[lil400exdude]

whats the track like up there?

[D-7#61-450r]

You get all your stuff out finally.

[#88yfz]

Everything is out except mower and grill saved it for tomorrow to tired of moving.Baldwin order came in today.I didn,t know you got tires with the wheels to:D

[#88yfz]

What are you doing on here so late shocks got you excited.Started making plans for danville tonight.

[#88yfz]

You out there DALE:blah:

[yzfrider]

All I Know is watch out for #177

[#88yfz]

Who is #177?Never seen you before.:o

[yzfrider]

I meant #171

[D-7#61-450r]

Thats right 171 ruled the track and the money situation last year. But This is a new year.

[D-7#61-450r]

Its about time you stopped looking and got in on the action.

[TWISTED]

If that's 171 why is his screen name yzfrider? Just curious?

[D-7#61-450r]

It's not 171. Think harder.

[TWISTED]

Is that the Godfather himself????

[D-7#61-450r]

I will let you figure that out on your own. I remeber having to figure out who twisted was. I do know that their are others out there that just read this stuff and never write in. I'm callin you out #70 where are you.:devious:

[#88yfz]

Who is #70?? I don't think it is the godfather,you better guess again and check that birth date!:muscle:

[TWISTED]

You goin to Budds tomorrow 88?

[D-7#61-450r]

You know who #70 is. His 400 is at CT3 right now. Getting the steering stem lenghtend.

[Delaware152]

Are any of you guys going to Budd's tomorrow. I don't know if Cliff knows already but Paul may have broke his collarbone today at Harrisburg. He said it doesn't feel as bad as when he broke it last year but there's a knot so he is pretty sure it's broke but hopefully not bad.

[D-7#61-450r]

Ouch that sucks. Probally Nick Shoupe, I don't think anyone else is Ready yet. Nick is a man on a mission. Also has 2 backup quads like someone else I know.

[#88yfz]

No budds for #88,Just got the bike home and everything organized.Ian may be at budds today.
Sorry to here about paul.

[Delaware152]

I talked to Paul today. He went to get xrays and it's not broke..so that is good news. I had a good day at Seaford today...the bike actually ran with no problems. I may make down to Budd's next weekend but I don't want to waste all day with only a couple people in the class. That's not alot of fun.

[#88yfz]

Yeah del152 cliff talked to paul earlier and i heard the samething.I'm not sure how many riders will be there next weekend,ian hurt his wrist in the second moto up there today.

[Delaware152]

Not sure if I am going next weekend. I can't believe there are so few people there. When I raced there in Feb. there was always a decent turnout. There must be a lot of money being spent and wrenches being turned. lol Did you finally get to ride over the weekend?

[#88yfz]

Not yet but i'am off work today so it might happen today.The weather report has been bad every weekend i think that is turning people away.Valve adjustment today also.

[Delaware152]

The forecast looks decent for this week...45-50 all week. You going to race this weekend. Ian's not hurt bad is he?

[#88yfz]

Ians wrist was swollen pretty bad have not heard from him today.
I put a pretty good ride in today finally to knock the rust off.

[TWISTED]

How did it feel to get in some seat time 88?

[#88yfz]

The seat time was great ready to start conditioning.Still on a stock bike for now:devil:

[TWISTED]

Did Ian break his wrist or just sprain it?

[#88yfz]

Not sure but i dont think it is broke.Snow and sleet tomorrow that could ruin the weekend.

[TWISTED]

Afraid so . I'm gonna break out the paintball gun and head to Leesburg. Get some target practice in.

[#88yfz]

still paintballing alot?If the weather breaks at all i'm on the bike all next week if possiible.

[TWISTED]

I haven't played in over a year!! I would rather ride, but if we get thi snow, it's gonna turn my place into soup!!! Too much of a pain to straighten up after we rut it up while it's that wet. Besides it'll do me some good to run around instead. Are you gonna race Danville this year? If everything goes as planned I'll be in Gainesville for that race. Can't wait!!

[#88yfz]

Yeah a good crew is headed to danville to race this year.88,46,61,105,133and maybe171.

[TWISTED]

DAMN!!! The whole family is gonna leave the "Burg" huh? Who's gonna look after things with all of you gone? Who's gonna run the biznezz with all of you outa town???

[#88yfz]

The business will be at the nationals!It should be awesome you coming down?

[Delaware152]

The weather is not looking good here either. I am hoping it misses. I have been able to ride the last two weeks...still sore from Sunday...Gil is moving pretty good on the Honda.

[TWISTED]

I'll be there that Thurs night. How is Gil liking the Honda Jt? Was it a smooth transition for him?

[#88yfz]

So gil is on the honda, i finally got a little time in but next week i hope a little more time.You going to head to danville?Is it necessary to practice so much jt give us a little chance:D

[Delaware152]

He is starting to like it. He didn't have his race bike yet. It has a TC motor, different linkage setup and a different ignition. He was alot faster this weekend and feeling better each time he rides. I rode it this past weekend for a little...not bad but not much bottom end. It's hard to get used to a different bike in 15 minutes but I did jump everthing but the 90 footer.
88...I need all the practice I can get... I am getting old.

[#88yfz]

Yeah older and faster!!!Is gil starting back at the nationals?

[Delaware152]

Yeah right..I just keep thinking of Gust. lol Gil is on his way to Texas. New truck, trailer and bikes. The trailer is a big one..48 foot 5th wheel.

[#88yfz]

No more easy coast atv trailer,so he is back on the trail in pro class again i imagine.Riding has been pretty slow around here with the weird weather and everyone building bikes but it is coming around.

[#88yfz]

Where you at#61????:o

[Delaware152]

Is anybody going to Budd's this weekend?

[Dupontster]

With the snow still on the ground as of right now, it might be too muddy....I am about 5 miles from Budds and everything around here is slop....

[Delaware152]

That is what I figured but I saw on there website where they are racing. Thanks for the update.

[Dupontster]

Don't stay home because I said it was sloppy here....Check the website or call them.....That track drys out pretty good.....The fields will be sloppy though...:D

[#88yfz]

JT conditions don't look good down here.Won't be worth the trip probally.

[Delaware152]

Is anybody from your area going?

[pgregg85]

conditions were great tonight, that is at the ski resort. I went to have a little fun.

[#88yfz]

I don't think budds will be open jt.Paul that shoulder feels that good already.I looked at the web and they are racing sunday nick shupe will probally go idon't know if anyone else is.

[#88yfz]

Parts came in tonight just waiting on some others

[D-7#61-450r]

not to change the subject but did you see natalie's trailer?

[TWISTED]

Anybody wanna go to Gainesville with me? I gotta empty seat.

[D-7#61-450r]

How about a spot in the trailer.J/K. I would love to but can't still building the R.

[TWISTED]

You could have the whole thing to yourself. It's empty right now. Both bikes are in the garage.

[D-7#61-450r]

Awh yeah sponsership

[#88yfz]

I would love to go but didn't put in for leave at work and bike is not ready don't mean to let sponsor down:ermm: # 61 is trying to steal my ride you aren't going to give it away that easy are you.

[TWISTED]

You've got lifetime rights, no need to worry. Hopefully by summertime the team will have a BIGGER trailer!!!

[#88yfz]

Ride time is coming and so is the bike can't wait just need seat time but that will come.What size are we talking.

[TWISTED]

16-20 ft Depends on if I can find a deal on a good used one. Might have another quad coming. Need the room for ALL my s##t!!!

[#88yfz]

Sounds great next year may catch a few rides to nationals bike and me will be ready.

[TWISTED]

How about a ride to Wisconsin this Sept?

[#88yfz]

Maybe depends on if i race the 12 hour race at rausch with a team.

[TWISTED]

Might have a big announcement coming soon for Millers!!!!

[#88yfz]

What would that be????:rolleyes:

[TWISTED]

Can't let the cat out of the bag yet...

[#88yfz]

When is the cat coming out the bag we can't wait forever:blah:

[TWISTED]

Hopefully Tues. You guys have fun up here this weekend. I'm leaving for Florida as we speak!!! Gainesville or bust!!!!

[#88yfz]

Tuesday has come and gone don't hold out any longer where is the info.

[Delaware152]

He didn't say what Tuesday. lol

[#88yfz]

Good point!

[TWISTED]

Things didn't pan out. Just got a phone call explaining things, that's why I didn't say anything..

[TWISTED]

The 1st race is coming up. Just didn't want anybody to forget!!! REAL GOOD payout for a full pro gate for the 1st place rider!!!

[pgregg85]

Whats the payout this year?

[TWISTED]

I just wanna know if any big D-7 riders are gonna show up??? Got a REAL cocky kid down here that needs a wake up call... It seems my money is safe for now....
