Sounds like it was more fun than the dust bowl at the John Penton!

Yea, it was more fun than the John Penton! But it was a lot easier cleaning every thing up after the GNCC. My brake pads were 3/4 there before the race, now the metal backing for the pads is half gone.:eek:

Holeshot19, how did you do? I got fifth. That really sucks because I had a five minute lead at the end of the end of the first lap. I just hope I learn from all the mistakes I am making this season, I have been very creative in my stupidity and there are not many more mistakes I can make. Maybe next season will be perfect.:rolleyes:

first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well i picked some good lines and i was the only one in vet class that ran four laps.i started getting pumped when i got to the first hill , there was pros, a class ,2 stroke, i had to swing far left, i would say that the suspenion that i got from the quad shop helped.but in mud you need lock and some skill,its bad when you have to park a mile away from the starting line.

We had a Mid-South this year where everyone had to be pulled in and out of the parking lot by a huge 4X4 tractor. I drove my Jeep there and got stuck as soon as I turned off the road!:huh But I did win the race by 7 minutes over second place! :macho Did I mention I love mud races?:D

i dont mind the mud, its like you can get creative, and take advantage of others misfortion.the guy that came in second.won the georga round of the gncc in junior class and he didnt seen pleased.but the thing about it he lives about 10 miles away and during the winter brake he wants me to build his engine
