View Full Version : Who's Interested in an Exriders ride at Daniel Boone Mx Track



01-09-2003, 02:42 PM
Guys/gals,,, Jeff and myself were talkin at lunch this week and had a thought...:eek:

Were gonna see about renting out Daneil Boone MX track for a day in the spring for an Exriders event..who would be interested and I'm guessing weekends would be the best for everyone. Neither of us have contacted Daneil Boone about this,,but we just wanted to see if it would be worth while..for those who don't know anything about it,,it's a Huge track that the Nationals are run at and would be a lot of fun to go goof off...:D

For those of us that are not in the know, where is this place at?

Also, is there a place near by that we could camp?

Who's bringing the beer?

You can count me in for SURE!!!!!! I'm only 2 hours away from the track and I think it would be fun. Just let us know the date and I'll be there for sure. I don't know anyone on here though so this will be good to meet some new people.

Also I need to hook up with someone and start jumping the six pack. I have never jumped them and need to so I will have a chance to place good at NATIONALS. I know there will somewhere there that can do it so that will be a good learning experience as well.

Me and a buddy might come down from Chicago. Once someone figures out a date, I'll know better, but we will have to drive right by there. Plus my sister lives in Mt. Vernon, so we might stay the night there.

How long do you think it will take to get there from your house?

Moto92
01-11-2003, 03:12 PM
Well its a 4 hour drive to get to Lexington from here and Jeff said that the track is 45 minutes south of Lexington. So it looks like about 5 hours from Mt Vernon.

Several of my friends and I make 2 or 3 trips down to the daniel boone forest each year, great riding, but rocky! Never been to the track, its to the left off the exit right? Or is it even on the same exit as the forest? I'm pretty sure the guy at the gas station at the bottom of the trails said it was the other way down the highway. Its about a 2 1/2 - 3 hour drive for me. I might have to make the trip.

How much do you think this is going to cost. I know it depends on how many people we get. I don't know but is this even feasible?

Is the plan to rent for 1 day or 2?

cdalejef
01-14-2003, 07:02 PM
The date isn't set in stone yet...I still have to check with DB and see if the track isn't in use that weekend.

The trails at Livingston are rocky, sandy, muddy and very hilly. It will be very crowded that weekend.

01-14-2003, 08:34 PM
If I got myself a quad by that time , count me in . Oh and i better get the longest haul prize/t-shirt cuz it'll be hauling from WAY UP North Ontario Canada . I'll bring the beer too . Good old CANADIAN Beer ( not american water beer) :D

I cant tell is your serious or joking.
So the Quadshop is going to rent the track for that weekend and we will be the only ones on the riding the track?
Plus we get stickers and shirts...:D
If so this sounds like one sweet weekend.

01-15-2003, 06:10 AM
Fearthis,, it's not a joke,,I don't know if the track will be rented for the entire weekend,,but maybe for at least one day...I also think Jeff needs ta charge you sucka's at least $5...:D Honestly i'd pay $20 a day ta ride on the track,,it's sweeet..



OJ250..,what you need extry parts for ,,you plannin on wreckin already???? I say you need ta bring your chest protector and you will wear it if I'm there,,along with all other safety equipment..:D

01-15-2003, 06:20 AM
You can count me in. I imagine DB is a bit more intense than the track at Haspin. But, I am willing to give it a try. Who knows I may even try that 50' double or something.

But the person that told me said they weren't for sure and I just took there word for it. But does anyone have the video 4-PLAY????? It shows some decent footage of the track back in 98 and the track pretty much hasn't changed. That for sure is DANIEL BOONE. The video doesn't really show the hole track. It doesn't show the up hill triple ( that jump is huge). There also is pretty much a whole section of the track the video doesn't show. It takes like 2.5 mins or more to do one lap on the track. Its huge. But the video does show Doug Gust and others doing the Table of Two (about a 90ft double, could be even bigger i never measured it :D ). It also shows a pretty cool rythm section. Yes I would also pay 20bucks to ride all day at that track. It is AWESOME. But sense you fellas are paying that makes everything better :) Count me in for sure just let me know the date, i hope someone will let me ride there DALE down there :D

01-15-2003, 03:32 PM
well in that case guess i might have to make a trip down to ol KY, i have been wanting to test ride a dale for a long time but never got around to it...

i am looking at a 9 and 1/2 hour trip one way!!!! so i don't know if it is worht it especaily since school ...

raptor_02
01-15-2003, 03:57 PM
hopefully by the time we all meet down there i will have my 416 kit , cam, and my header pipe. That should give me a little more power. The last time I was down there I cased the finish line a couple of times cause I didn't have enough power. Hopefully that will help.

if your talking about the uphill triple its around 75ft and you could probaly get 3rd gear pinned. 125 bikes have a very hard time doing it. You better hope your quad is pushing around 55-60HP before you can get over it. One of the reasons PROS on quads can do it is because of their corner speed. But if I were a betting man I'd say after you see it you won't be thinking of trying it. It's very huge. There is another up hill triple there that no one will be doing either. Also the TABLE of TWO which will take (just guessing) 4th gear pinned to clear. That's out of a PRO's quad that pushes over 50HP. My advice would be improve your skillz on cornering not jumping , you case one of those jumps you will be hurt very bad and so will your quad
