The TQRA (http://www.tqra.com) (Texas Oklahoma Quad Racing Association) is a large Quad only series that has races in the northern portion of Texas and southern area of Oklahoma. This series has turnouts of over 150+ riders at each event. This series supports some very fast national racers. Johnny Hale, Hunter Miller, Cody Miller, Brian Chaler, Caleb Moore and Thomas Brown (just to name a few). The TQRA has been around for a few years now and is getting bigger every year! The new TQRA President Rob Blackard is doing a great job with the series this year.

Round 7 of the 10 race circuit was at Moto City motocross park in Blanchard, Oklahoma. With the hot summer days upon us, this race would be held under the lights on the night track at Moto City.

Sorry in advance for the poor photo quality, and I dont have to many different photos from different spots on the track. I dislocated my leg from my hip at the Kelly Chang Memorial Freestyle show, so I am walking around on crutches right now. Most of the photos are from practice before the sun went down because my camera does not take good photos at night.



Pro am riders waiting to go out for there first moto

*Note* Cody Miller would normally be in with this group of riders but he had car problems on the way to the event and wasnt able to make it. Anyone see him tearing it up at the Great Outdoor Games??:devil: He would have done great if he wasnt having to deal with engine problems!

Tyler Whitmire is a young rider who is very fast! He will be a big factor in the pro class someday!
