A perfect night for TT Racin'
The pit gates at the Thunder Bowl Speedway in Moundhouse, NV were open early for Round 2 of the 2006 Northern Nevada Flat Track TT Championship Series on May 6, 2006. And though the promoters are now blaming cabin fever for starting the season a bit too early – a blizzard blew out the March 25 opening at Thunder Bowl and Spring showers washed out the April 22 event at Rattlesnake Raceway in Fallon NV – over 110 entries were raring to go.
As seen in previous seasons the number of kid and quad ATV racers continues to increase – kids are almost 50% of all entries and quad ATVs above 60%.
The most competitive kids are the 80-90cc quad ATVs which were split into Novice and Junior classes this year with Trysten Schlepp trading places with Mitchell Menzer for first and second just as they did April 8th in Round 1 at the Centennial Speedway in Hawthorne NV.
And as the market trends towards 450cc+ quad ATVs, the 266cc+ 2-Stroke & 450cc+ 4-Stroke Quad classes were double last years size with twice as many entries as the previous years outstanding entries – 400-440cc quads ATVs of the 250cc 2-Stroke & 400cc 4-Stroke Quad classes.
In the first lap of the 25+yrs Quad Novice main event Brandy Carmichael of Reno had a hard tumble and on the paramedics advice took a helicopter ride to the hospital ending the event. Track owners Charlie and Carol Brandenberg want everyone to know that after a through check-up and CAT scan her husband, Pro Quad rider Shawn Carmichael, took her home Sunday afternoon with only bumps and bruises.
As a consequence of having a helicopter land in the middle of the track to end the Round 2 events, the remaining cancelled main events were awarded series points based on heat race finishes.
