Bartosek Race

[hsr]

Wimmer and Wienen put on a clinic today at Mapleshade MX. I have never seen anyone ride that track like that have today, and that's including dirtbikes. Those guys were flat out hauling, it was really something to see...

Yep, still backwards, and no dunk. Upperman and Natalie were supposed to be there too, but weren't. Quite a few other Pros though...

Haven't been there in years. What a great track. One of my favorites. There's a NACS Aluminum kickstarter off an 89 R somewhere in the dirt up there, lol!!!!

They do have a good track, but it was a bad decision to run it backwards... I don't understand why they're doing that, they killed the elevator, the triple by the stands, the down hill double....the track is not that exciting now. I was really dissapointed by the change. :ermm:

Yeah i was there Saturday and planning to race Sunday but my quad decided that it didnt want to run. Turned out to be the TPS wire got ripped out of the plug somehow. Yeah the track was very easy but still a fun and fast track.

I do agree, from a spectators point of view the track isn't quite exciting. It is still very fun to ride on though. I believe that they were influenced to reverse the track so that the first turn out of the starting gate could be a left hander. Supposedly the AMA prefers it that way because then the dirt-bikers are able to still have a foot covered on the back brake as opposed to going into a first-turn right hander and having your foot dangling out there with no brake control...just a thought. I do miss the big tower triple though, they should rebuild that thing elsewhere. :devil:

I was wondering what happened to you...? Seen you getting towed off. Pat Brown was pulling you wasn't he? It was nice to see you again.

yeah i was pretty pissed that i had to end my weekend early. And Pat brown wasnt towing me lol It was an older guy on a Kawasaki 4x4

[05Z400rdr]

Oh ok lol, I seen you getting towed off, but I also saw someone being towed by Pat so I got mixed up, lol. Yeah that really sucks to not even get to race

[08mxkfx]

What sucks the most is that I liked that track alot and seemed to be pretty fast and that Kawasaki had contingency for that race. You going to be doing anymore of the pamx races?

[05Z400rdr]

Yeah I know what you mean, I loved the track even though there was no big jumps or anything, it was a real fast wide open track. I'll be at Sleepy on Oct. 11-12, how about you? That's the last race in the series I'm doing though, Idk if I'll do any of the team green races just for practice or not...?
