First race! vancleave MX
this track was massive for an amature quad class : off the gate u had 2 huge doubles then a left hairpin right to a table top then swoop to a "camel hump"(stepup/stepdown) then another small tabletop hairpin turn then an 80 to 100 foot tripple! another hairpin then about a 120 foot straight to the finish line double, after the finish line the big turn had a small triple in it then you were back at the begining!!! wow i was scared to death!!

MOTO 1: well it wasn't so bad i pulled third off the gate but went down in lap 3 to finish with 7th with a sprained wrist
MOTO 2: pulled 5th off the gate and maintained till the end.
i ranked 7th overall i had a blast and didn't get hurt so i think it was a great night!!
