Aside from all the blackwater racers how about the spectators. Everyone must check out 2:18 that is one heck of a fan to get run over then cheer the racer on. Now days there would have been a fight.

Cool vid!

The spectators are as much a part of the race as the racers!

Its cool seeing the ATC 250r tearing it up too! The hill doesn't "look" that hard but obviously it claimed many racers!

I think its just the racers are dead tired. Makes easy obstacles hard.

I think it is crazy how everyone has stock shocks and tires. everything is stock!:eek2: And they advertise today's quad's as race ready, and there hardly is a stock part on any race quad lol

If you have netflix, be sure to look for the blackwater DVDs. Some great nostalgic stuff. They focus a bit more on the bikes but they still show all the great Quadracers, warriors, 250Xs, and Rs playing in the muck along with the crazy drunken spectators.

Good times right there!
