Rippin' Breezewood up!

[Pappy]

Whats better then letting the boy tear it up on a weeknight:D


Nothing I can think of:p

[Pappy]

I wanted to work with him on cornering some tonight

[Pappy]

He got in some good practice and cornering is improving.

[Pappy]

teaching him how to use berms isnt too hard. He does better when someone is behind him pushing him to go faster

[Pappy]

After 20 laps he was doing great

u pretty much live out tthere now huh? :blah:

[Pappy]

We ride when we can...or atleast Cody does:p

[Pappy]

I am just so stoked Dan was able to fight the good fight and get this place running. There is a 2 page article in one of teh magazines(I plum forgot even though I just saw it at the track) Maybe dan will see this thread and chime in....or someone can scan teh article and post it. It is all about the facility and tells a bit of the battle Dan had to wage to keep the track open.

[Pappy]

Cody is working hard at getting himself in shape and I need him to ride to work out all the bugs in teh quad.

[Pappy]

I just enjoy watching him ride more then anything i think:p

[Pappy]

And Breezewood's Youth track is the perfect spot for him to hone his MX skills

The pitbike/mini quad race should be killer under the lights

It will depend on how many show up. Cody said if noone shows up but little kids he will gladly watch instead of race, unless a pitbike rider wants to run him:devil:

My dad did not spend time with me unless we were working:p

[Pappy]

Or maybe we can convince another YFZ450 to run him:chinese: The last one got SPANKED:devil:

[trict_out]

paps we all enjoy the pics and can tell cody is a darn good rider...but i think its time for a video so we can enjoy his skills to the full extent.:D

[Pappy]

I do have some video, and i will do my best to edit it and try and find a way to get it up. im on dial up so thats out:scary: id send a copy to harlen but he is so busy i would hate to add to his problems

[Pappy]

wvspeedfreak can atest to what him and I witnessed when a YFZ rider dropped in on cody and got his *** handed to him...including a kickazz lookback over the big table:D

[Pappy]

Dan has a small trail loop that is easy for just about any age rider. Cody took a few laps but they were working on it so we cut it short

[WhiteYFZ]

if u send it to me, i can do some editing.. throw his favorite song is, put a tidle and some stuff..

[Pappy]

Out on the big track we developed issues. A dirty airfilter had to be changed and as soon as he got going a motor mount bolt disappeared

[Pappy]

WhiteYFZ I may do that. I can burn it to a dvd


Here is the look at that 60 foot downhill cody wants badly to hit. I will faint when he finally does it

[Pappy]

From this angle that same jump looks tame

[Pappy]

More then one person has commented on how intimidating it is

That was awesome.As I was watching the yfz trying to get around him I actually was a little nervous for Cody.I mean a 12 year old kid on a trx90 being chased around the track by a 450,then he pulled a lookback on him over the table top and I was like Dayumm :macho :cool:

[WhiteYFZ]

it looks so much longer in that oter picture.. anyway, u cna send it to me on a dvd, or u can just send it thourgh aim which will be 100 times easier..,;)

it does it all

[WhiteYFZ]

lol nice!
i cant wait to test my sweet shocks and take it off some SWEET jumps lol..

[Pappy]

Cody told me on the way home we should get a blaster:chinese:

[250ex13]

I agree with cody!

GO FOR IT!!!

[WhiteYFZ]

if u do decide to get him one, buy it while hees in school so when he ocmes home u can say hey cody.. go look at ur quad i cleaned it up or something liek that.. and have the blaster sitting there.lol.. i just thought that would be a cool idea..

[Pappy]

I think he is getting to the point where he wants and needs more power, but is so used to the trx90 it scares him a bit. He doesnt do good on new things until he realizes its all in his head:p

The blaster fits him the best, I reckon I will look around for a deal so he can grow into that when the 90 is done.

[dober250R]

I wish i lived closer to this breezewood... how long do you reckon the drive would be from southeastern michigan? I'm like 2 min away from toledo ohio......

[WhiteYFZ]

dumb question, but ill ask it anyway..
since hte suspension and exrything on that quad it perfect, is it possible to put a blaster engine on the 90?

[Pappy]

Not sure on drive time from Michigan...maybe 12 hours:confused:


I will look into another swap...but even Cody is growing and he knows his days on a mini are almost over. After this summer I doubt he will be comfortable riding one:ermm:

[WhiteYFZ]

true
pappy check ur pm's i had a ?

[jrspawn]

Great pics pappy, looks like he's doing good. Might want to get that boy some goggles though:D I know hes probably not getting roosted much, sounds like he's doing the roosting:D but might save some dirt in the eyes.

[Pappy]

He has them and he wears them. Alot of times he will wear them, then when I pull him aside they fog up and he will leave them off for a few laps. He was all alone yesterday, only other machinery moving about was Dan on his skidloader 1/2 mile away:p

[Quad18star]

Pappy ... you should've just kept the 450r ... take the engine out and swap engines everytime he needs more power . ... would been a lot cheaper . LOL

[Pappy]

I still have the 450R engine:cool:

I think I will lower, widen and prep the YFZ for him and skip the blaster.

I bet the YFZ would fit him perfectly . I'm a small guy and found that the YFZ fit me like a glove . The quad doesn't seem as big as others ... even on a 450r I didn't feel comfortable mostly because of the gas tank positioning and the fender positioning .

The only thing my short arse needed on the YFZ was a set of higher handlebars . Assuming Cody isn't as tall as I am ( I'm only 5'8") , the bars would probably be at perfect height for him .

[Pappy]

He rides my YFZ, he can actually do all the jumps at my place, but needs more seat time. The bad part is still the balance and weight but the YFZ is very close to being just right as long as he is easy on the throttle.

[BSTURDIVANT]

Hey pappy where you been? You gonna let him race any xc's on that mean machine? By the way he is lookin good!

Give him a few kicks in the rear and feed him his wheaties and he'll be throwing the YFZ around in no time . ;)

So I guess he's really into MX eh?? I figured he would have been more into XC racing for some reason . You got a future pro on your hands .

Ive been right here:p I do not get on AIM nuch, when I do I get so many people IM'n me that it locks the damn thing up.

He wants to race a few XC events, but $$$ is in tight supply for travel expenses.

[JRP]

man i cant waitto see cody on a yfz, i couldnt imagine how good he would be after a year or so on that quad.

[ballz2thewall]

I give him half a lap and he will be good on it:D wait two turns. Pappy know's what I am talking about:devil:

[Pappy]

LOL...yeah he went after that bike like a hobo after a ham sandwich:p I wish the bike rider had not have wrecked, but Codys rear tire is not a good place to land:p

[ballz2thewall]

I don't wish wrecking on anyone but I believe he got everything he deserved:devil: Cody also got an ***** full of front fender!

[Pappy]

There is a battle scar on the left rear fender from it, but thankfully noone was hurt.

[ballz2thewall]

Actually later on that day I seen the kid walking around with a bandage and an ice pack on his elbo!

[Pappy]

Better his elbow then his lip:chinese:

[ballz2thewall]

You know Ken I could see you waiting for him to come around the track then bam close line:macho If you get a chance could you please check to see if you still have the picture you took of my son so I can make it into a picture for the wife!

[Pappy]

it was fuzzy so i chit canned it:(


naaa i would never do that to a kid....i wont hesitate to say something but id leave the discipline to the parents. i did think i might have to settle his dad down though:p

[ballz2thewall]

ok, that's fine! Him against you would be like me against Ali, it would have been ugly:devil: I love dirty fights!
