It was a beautiful day for racing in Florida. I grabbed the kids and drove over to DeLeon Springs to watch the Orange Crush (GNCC opening race).

I don't think anyone expected Yokley to ride his new LTR till the 3rd race of the season, but much to our delight there he was on the QuadRacer.

The track was tough, and quite challenging by the time the Pro's rode. Borich was a man on a mission, and took 1st. At one point it looked like Yokley might actually close on him, but Chris's pace was insane.

I was very pleased with a 2nd place finish for Yokley -first time out on a quad made for MX! My 9 year old son got to shake Borich's hand, got Yokley's autograph and got sprayed with champagne podium. He had dreams all night of being a XC Pro- he was a happy camper.

Final Podium
1. Borich
2. Yokely
3. Brandon Balance

I took pics (of the LTR) for those of you interested in his set-up.

Cheers,
Lee

HE RAN STOCK width!! His stock A arms were powdercoated purple to match the frame and had white Roll Design stickers on them, but they were stock!
I'm sure he had a Yosh pipe and the plug in gadgets.
What size tires did he run?? What kind??

Ok boys for your viewing pleasure:

Here is a link to full page slideshow.
You can pause on whatever pic you want. There are a lot of pics of other riders, so I tried to move the LTR toward the front of the slideshow.

If there are any pics you see of yourself and you want a hi res version let me know, if I still have it I will email it to you:

GOOD STUFF!! Stock pipe, I LOVE IT. Those tires look sick, I'm gonna run that exact set up.
I bet that's the stock swing arm with a LOBO sticker on it.
Is it me, or does Yoke look like he's gotten skinny! He much be training his butt off.
Yee ha Second place!!

Thats not a stock pipe, its a Yosh with the baffle in.

do you really need a block off plate?

No you dont need a block off plate, that pushrod is sealed with an o-ring or two.

Yet another Hype product.

But for $12.00 it cleans up the look of the caliper anyhow.

Looks like he is running Z-400 hubs which will put him at 48 in the back, and if he is running 4/1 wheels up front it will put him at 48 in the front also.
