That is why you should rebuild the top end of your race bikes every season. This one had 1.5 seasons of racing on it before the wristpin had enough.

It actually ejected itself out the front of the case and was lying on the track :eek2:

CT-its was great seeing you and your pops again! Hard to believe youve grown up so fast haha!

Rollie, your quite welcome, we had a blast other then the heat....I wasnt prepared for that dang humidity this early and was actually looking forward to some cooler air but that didnt quite workout as planned!

[atvmaster0927]

Wow nice Pappy, I was going to go there on sunday and race but I was in P.A. for the weekend :(

[extremeblastr]

haha definitely a hot one i'm lookin like a lobster here. mike was sure on top of his game in the first motos but he was looking a little out of shape, he kind of shot himself in the foot in the first moto taking that inside line and not sliding out to block pelchat charging on the outside but did a beautiful job on that block the lap before going into the whoops by the spectator. it was nice to meet you and the boy and talk for a minute and those steaks were damn good haha. oh and alger helluva job in that second college boy moto and you almost had him in the first one to.

[Britboy]

Pappy- Great seeing you in our neck of the woods for a change!

Hopefully you got some pics of the XC bike airing it out on the MX track LOL!

I tell ya, when I first walked out on the track saturday I was pretty disappointed. Very narrow, one lined and sandy. I figured I was in for a boring weekend honestly because without alot of passing it really makes for boring pictures.

BUT!!! They track crew worked saturday evening and it was a pretty decent track and a big change form saturday! A big thumbs up to them! I told Cody a XC set up would have worked well on saturday!

Hey it was nice as well, look foward to your presence and pictures throughout the NEATV series. Should be a good one i hope! When Harlen said he needed to save a parking spot(we almost parked where your mustang was, i asked is it for Pappy? he said yea and i was like sweet lol)

PM me if you want some coverage or something along those sorts like you were asking.

Cody has definately grown as well, just not too tall though:devil:

[Pappy]

haha yeah he still isnt very tall but man he sure is getting big:p

just pm me your race summary, nothing to fancy , and include a list of your sponsors as well.

in all honesty, I am kind of vegging out this morning and recouping some energy. as soon as i get results from harlen i will start coverage so be sure to spread the word to other folks in the series if you could. i was told teh series has a website and forums but havent looked into it.

[feuerstack411]

I saw you sitting in a chair by the ATVriders RV sunday morning. I was gonna say something, but never got around to it lol.
This weekend was my first B race, and I did pretty...bad haha.

My friends race in schoolboy B and during the second moto, my friend was coming by right before the big berm after the start, and my other friend who was supposed to be writing stuff on a pit board for him decided to moon him instead, with Harlen right there snapping pics haha

BTW, any pics of a blue yfz #411 :chinese:

[Pappy]

Hahahaha!! He never said anything to me, so either he didnt see it, missed the shot or is saving it for personal use:eek: :devil: :blah:

Ill keep an eye out for you, im almost done going through the saturday practice:p

I don't think he actually got a pic of it happening, but he deff saw it, he turned around laughing haha, then took a group pic of all of us.

When my friend went out to moon my other friend, he did it too fast and ended up mooning some random kid too hah

I am scheduled to cover most of the series. The ones I wont be at conflict with either the GNCC Series or the AMA MX Nationals.....but we will have someone covering each round.

[JParisi48]

sweet, one question....how do we look at these pics, do we click the thing in your sig when its done uploading?

[Pappy]

2 ways....

One set of galleries will be uploaded and on the homepage. These are the small watermarked images everyone likes to use on myspace etc.

Once I go through my folders, I will upload them to the link in my signature. Alot of folks like my galleries because you get a bigger pic to look at along with other size options for ordering pics etc.

The practice gallery should be loading this evening and Harlen should have the sites galleries done today

[JParisi48]

awesome, yea ill prob buy a pic or 2

[CTmxyfz]

Ill be looking through your galleries soon and hope to purchase some good shots i hope!

[Pappy]

i love this pic bc it shows that you need nothing to be fast and to race on your quad. its all about the rider:macho

[Pappy]

Coverage is started...and will continue till im done:p


I signed up at the NEATV site but havent been approved yet. If someone could get a link up there I would appreciate it

[xrxmxcx]

Hey Ken, happen to get any nice shots of a yellow can-am, all troy lee designs gear bright green #37?


Sannnnk you,

RMC

:p

[Pappy]

Yep, I recall seeing several!:)

[DP #000]

got any of an orange ltr #000 orange gear or the light blue gear thanks :D

[Pappy]

Sure do, but you will have to search the galleries that are now up I believe as Im doing the race coverage and dont have time to upload one right now:D If I see one, I will try and use it in the race coverage for ya.

[Nac's22]

Are all the practice pics up pappy? If not would you happen to have a pic of a blue 450R with yellow plates and number 22 on it? I wrecked really goot off that second triple just trying to see if anyone has any pics of it or atleast of me. I thought I recignized you but couldn't quite remember where I knew you from haha.

[Pappy]

My galleries are still loading, but I think Harlen said the small images were done:confused: they should be on the homepage

[Nac's22]

Yeah they are I looked through them all and didn't see me. I was just wondering. Thanks!

[Pappy]

Did you run some more with the plate all busted up? If so there are shots there somewhere:p

[Nac's22]

No I didn't actually and unfortunatley. Messed my self up good. Its no big deal there is plenty of season left for you to get 1 or 2 of me haha. Next time I see you now I'll know that its actually you and can say something to you.

[Pappy]

Well hopefully it will be an action shot without a wreck:blah:

Hope you heal up quick!

[Nac's22]

Yeah I hope so too but sometimes those wreck shots are the stuff that you can say "Yeah I walked away from that" and I needed that because according to the track officials they didn't think I was going to be walking away from it... or walking at all, but me being stuborn I showed them and got back on it and rode it off the track. Thanks for the heal up wish.

[Pappy]

Dan at Breezewood Proving Grounds tells me that when he is 80, and cant walk straight, or his bones crack when he does walk, he can look back and smile because he left it all on the track:p

Well, i'm 38....and my bones crack now and I ache and I dont look back at any injury and smile:D

[ZSNOW]

Hey Pappy, i didn't get a chance to meet you this weekend but i saw you around.You take some awsome pics!

but no one got pics of the only 300 jumping the triple:devil: :D

o yah and welcome to the north!:D

#8

[Pappy]

Awe man you should have said "hey":p

I was working the back section and harlen the front most of sunday so we will blame him for not getting a shot of you:devil:

I actually goofed off during one of the pro motos as I tried out a new lens (didnt work out so well) Ironically, Harlen had the same thought and we both ended up trying something new thinking the other was sticking to catching the action so we missed alot of motos that should have been captured:p

[ZSNOW]

Haha ok, next race ill stop and say hey lol.

will you guys be up at MX207?

[Pappy]

My schedule shows me at the GNCC in PA, but that could change. I am pretty sure we have every round covered one way or another. The next scheduled NEATV race for me is May 23rd/24th at Jolly Roger?

Then the following weekend at Southwick but I have to check that one, I have a wedding to cover .....

[ZSNOW]

yeah we have 3 weeks of racing in a row in may!:D

[Pappy]

[ZSNOW]
