Pushin the boy....

[Pappy]

Cody was out again this evening getting in laps, which worked well for me as I could practice with my new lens

[Pappy]

I had afew good pics and he had been riding for about 45 minutes so we called it a night

[Pappy]

Almost back to the house, I saw another quad...my YFZ:eek:

[Pappy]

Before I could say "Hey I just washed my quad" ....it was on:chinese:

wait, is that pappy riding? Whos taking pictures.

[Pappy]

Cody pulled as he knew the trails but Kevin was riding hard to catch him

[Pappy]

It had been awhile since Kevin had rode in teh woods, but he was running the snot out of my quad:p

[Pappy]

The first few laps Cody was holding his own

[Pappy]

Kevin was getting the track down and closing in

[Pappy]

Lap 3 or 4 and I could hear the YFZ has Cody went by

[Pappy]

I could hear Kevin yelling...teaching Cody what he will run into racing with faster riders

[Pappy]

It was a blast watching this:p

[Pappy]

The pass was made...too bad that tree was there:mad:

[Pappy]

These boys were hammer down:macho

[Pappy]

Cody was not going to let him get ahead by too far

[Pappy]

Kevin took the lead for 5 laps or so, then he let cody back infront to push him some more

yea right, codies jus chillen

[Pappy]

I honestly dont know how many laps they did, easily 45 minutes of hard riding

[Pappy]

Finally....it was over

[Pappy]

Cody absolutley LOVED it!

[Pappy]

kevin was due for some dry clothes and a smoke:p

[Sjorge450R]

man, cody was nice and clean until your brother got in front of him. Im really starting to like the new camera.

[Quad Boy 660r]

No wonder Codys so good! Tryin to run down an older guy on a YFZ!

How long are the lap times in the woods?

[Pappy]

I havent timed it, a geuss would be around 5 minute laps

[400exrules]

how do YOU feel the yfz compares to a 450r in the woods in stock form, since you have owned both

[Pappy]

They both offer advantages over the other. It will come down to your riding style and which quad fits you the best.

[BlasterEaten250]

Thats awesome. I guess he likes the 300 eh?:p

5 minute laps? You must have a lot of land:cool:

[Pappy]

I have 13 acres, and all totaled we had 1 1/2 mile of trail. It is extremely tight and twists and turns to work his upper body.

The track he runs on now is condensed because I wont let him run on my food plots for my deer:p I made it tight, technical, creeks, rocks, ruts, mud, open sections, hillclimbs, downhills. offcambers...pretty much everything a XC race USED to be:p

[400exrules]

how long is the track?

me and a friend have a 2mile xc track built on his 33 acres, its a pretty fun track and a good length for practicing. its really tight though cuz he and his dad race bikes...but we cut alternate routes for me to get through lol.


i cant wait to see what this 300 looks like once you get started with it.

[RaptorRacer45]

Man i was just picturing the Racing as i was reading the posts........thats awesome! That kid is gonna be 1 Helluva Woods Racer!:macho

thats good, make sure he gets plenty comfortable with off camber hills, because im not sure how they do things where yall race, but around here, they LOVE putting off camber hills all over our harescramble tracks, especially since we have big dirtbike classes.
but they can really slow you down if your not used to them.....i know they did to me

[Pappy]

I will try and get pics that show how severe some of this is:p i am standing up taking this picture, the big down hill is way steep and on one heck of an offcamber that switches 2 or 3 times as you go down it

[Pappy]

and this is WV....we do not know what flat ground is:p

[Pappy]

I reckon i will have to widen the trails a bit once I add his new arms

[Pappy]

Cody was proud he ran Kevin hard enough that he couldnt light his own cigarette when they were done:devil:

[Pappy]

Cody wasnt even breathing hard when it was over:devil: :blah:

[Mxjunkie]

Haha thats awesome Pappy, I still want that yfz :blah: :devil:

As for Codys stamina, I witnessed Cody give a 400ex hell for easy 7-10 laps and the guy on the 400ex gave up and Cody wanted more :macho
