I was wondering the same thing. White LTR, fox shocks, stock graphics, quadbuilder sticker on the front, can't ride mx for my life.

Stickin to xc. Drove 3 hours, paid 60 bucks to ride for just over 20 minutes. Great track, great staff but too crowded for my taste.

Lots of fast guys out there. Honda #8 and a few guys on KFX's were haulin.

whats up guys. was there today with two guys with the kawi's and number 8 is my good friend. they are all awesome. go one mototowns website. then click on onealphotos, in the search box type in 'quads' the first few pages are some outdoor races, then mototown march 8 starts. and prtphotography.com has some but is adding more

was there last night on a blue gibson/axis/yfz 450 #703 , had a ton of fun the track was great and staff was good too.Towards the ended of the night like 7:45 ish till 9:00 there was NO line and you could have ridden for an hour and a half straight if you wanted.

And yes the #8 guy was BOMBIN and was super smooth.

I was loving the double to triple section , and the finish line table.

Finish line table was fun. I got most of the track down but couldn't nut up to triple some of the jumps. The only jump I regret not going for is the step up/double after the first table thing. You had to clear the first table and stay to the right to launch it.

We were gonna stay til later but my friend on a blue Roll YFZ wrecked near the whoops and dislocated his shoulder earlier in the day, and my other friend on a red Pompton Honda 450R cased a double hard and almost ripped his nerfs off. XC suspension doesn't work too well on an MX track lol.

on the double to triple(under the blimpies) some guy wrecked HARD(i think it was a 450r) his plastics fell off and everything, he was layin on one side and his quad was sideways just after the landing , nobody was flagging so i didn't see him till i was in midair over the triple , i thought i was gonna t-bone his quad hard but somehow i kicked my quad sideways and kinda bounced off his quad(thank god) , if i hit it t-bone it would have HURT!!!


after the session i realized i hit the quad harder than i thought , i now have a bent beadlock, really bent nerf and propeg :eek:

All in all it was a great day for me , first time back out in roughly 4 years and i was able to jump everything by the second session out , so i was very happy with my day yesterday , and now today i am VERY soar , i feel OLD.:ermm:

I had an okay night. It was my first time riding after my shoulder surgery and my first time on my new quad/suspension. When I was riding I was ripping pretty good, but my airfilter fell off twice and I wrecked hard on the littlest table there.:confused: Flipped over frontwards and got landed on by the quad. There was'nt enough time to even jump off because the jump was so small. Heres the direct links to the picture sites for y'all.

number 8 was mike pilotte, hes an neatv pro. there was probably an ltr and yfz moving along quite nicely to those would have been artie drouin and jon hansen. the kawis could have been alger (first name is evading me at the moment) and jason connell (he's a regular show at mototown seeing as he lives about 10 min or so from me). there is also someone who has been riding there on a kawi with no graphics or numbers who seems to be pretty quick.

I didn't get there until after 6:30, so I only had to wait in line once. I had just started putting my quad back together Friday night from a empty frame. I finished at about 5 on Sunday afternoon. My back was so sore from building it that I could barely ride. Oh well, at least I was able to figure out that I need a lot more practice. I was slow:ermm:

Cool pictures but unless you're the guy on the 250R #2, then the second link is useless.

Ahh that explains it then lol.

Give you credit for that R though. One of like 3 that were there last night I think.

I heard about a KFX wreck near the whoops section, was that Connell? Saw a lot of mess ups back there. Couldn't find a groove over the whoops myself lol.

Alger's first name is Justin, and was the no numbered kfx white? And I don't really know why I crashed. I hit the jump like I was doing all day and all of a sudden I'm flipping over frontwards. It was wierd.

Green mystery kawi rider with no graphics and numbers, sounds like me. Justin Alger #388, i was out there trying to hang with connell, hes a pro rider and im not lol. I was doing good until i lost 3rd gear. I took it apart and blew 4th gear which actually has dogs on it that help engage 3rd gear and then i had to back off. We were ripping and i was pissed i broke it but oh well. Pilotte is fast as usual, Hansen and Drouin and nuts as well great riders!

If your talking about me too, thank you i appreciate it. It was either Brian Diagle or I too. Hes got a creamer bike and i do too. Hes got roll/fox i switched to fox/walsh because im smart.:blah:

Heres a quick one of me.

You and the other kawi's were on a mission. There were also 2 identical yellow zuki's there that were pretty quick. There was a white zuki who was pretty fast but his temp light was always red and it caught my attention every lap he passed by lol.

I gotta hop on a KFX and see what all the hype is.

I know both of those guys on the LTR's brothers one with race cut and both are almost factory looking. one has the official team suzuki jersey.

those guys are CRAZY fast. they ride at a local track on long island and they are THE fastest one there. i heard one of them race in an A class national somewhere and he placed 2nd.

i wonder if those guys are on the forums:confused:

i rode with the faster of the two brothers today. he confirmed to me THAT HE"S SWITCHING TO KAWI :D . after this year him and his bro are dropping all 4 of their LTR's because theyre sick of the steel frame(cracked his frame again) and they hate working on the LTR because you have to take everything off to get to stuff.


he is a wicked fast rider. i think he said he's following the NEATV races this year. he figured out how much gas it would be for the truck to tow their quads to all of the races for some other series. it was 6500 dollars :eek2:

Can quads hit every jump there? cuz they look a lil small, that double-triple looks like the biggest jump there but i cant really tell where the landing is in the vid. The first triple looked bigger in the vid but then i seen a vid of a kid on like 90 clear it.

All the jumps were doable , its a fun place to ride.I was happy it was fairly tame cause it was my first time on a track(or riding) in years.
