Who is going to be at the march 25th Culver IN D 15 race?

Sucks there is only 4 races this year:(

I am going to race this one then I might skip the rest and save my money for haspen.

I will be on a Green King quad (prally the only ute there).

Also anyone else racing any Grand Prix this year?

lol it doing alright:o

I pmed you I will not be there. Money being a issue. I am going to race this culver race since I have alot of friends that are racing for there first time, then I may skip the rest of the D15 season and race some haspen races. I like haspen because my parents and whoever else go can ride around still when I am racing. Alot better then walking lol

Good luck at the D15 race. Sorry not replying to the PM,but I do not know where to go to check PM's. Let me know which races you are going to and I will look for you there.

Yeah your parents or friends can ride the track with you even before the race if you are there early enough.

Yesterday was a muddy mess. They let the quads do a practice lap after the dirtbikes are done, but we had to wait another 20-30 minutes because alot of the quads got stuck on their practice lap. Other than that the race was good, but very muddy. I came in 11th out of 18 in the B class. Not bad for my first B class race. There was about 120 quads all together.

You would have been well on your utility at that race. I will be at the race next month on the 22nd. My dad and I were thinking about going to the D15 race this weekend, but we want to ensure we have enough funds for the INXC series races. But I will let you know if we change out minds.

Jimmy

Thanks for letting me know how to check the PM's!

They posted the results on their website now. The overall winner I believe was the Pro winner, Brent Howel (not sure if I spelled his name right). But he is extremely fast. The B & C classes both had a holeshot award of twenty five dollars for both classes.

The electronic scoring went well I thought for how muddy the conditions were.

Sounds like a ball. How were the hill climbs there? Alot worse then the one at webster? I tried climbing the side of my table top at my house and about killed my self yesterday:scary:

The hillclimbs are longer than the ones were at the grandprix. Some are steeper, but they are usually fairly straight. A good amount of momentum and you should be fine.

The race you are going to go to let me know and if you want to go early, or possibly camp the night before just let me know. We can ride the track together before the dirtbikes start their race. They start at 10:30, so you would have to leave early to make it from your area.

The track gets much more rutted than the grandprix track, and this wears you out more than the hills will, well maybe that is more the quad. You can plow through more things than I can on my 400. You seemed fine after that grandprix race so you should be fine.

Ya I was pumped after the GP race. I wasn't tired. Just my thumb hurt a little. We will see how culver goes before I can say the quad makes me less tired lol. Ya camping would be fun. Plus then I do not have leave as early.

I went to Culver, too. The course was FANTASTIC, especially for a first-timer like me. Too bad I crashed out after only one lap...I'll be posting a few photos, soon I hope.
