Just wanted to see if anyone here has yet to break an RPM?
I talked to one of the guys at the track this weekend who used to work for RPM up until recently and he didnt think there had been any yet.
Brandon took a good tumble this weekend from one snapping, Ill be sending mine back this week and just thought Id ask around to see how everyones is holding up. Hes OK, but has a nice big bruise across his abdomen from something, Im just not sure from what . Its been great for Brandon up to this point. Im just glad it snapped before the bigger jumps.

I guess most jumpers will break a few over time ,I sure hope this is the last for a long time.. darn kids are gonna give me a flippin heart attack! :eek2:
:p

2 years and no bends or breaks. Glad he is ok.
Sounds like a lot of carnage during the weekend.

OUCH. sorry to hear that :(
IS he OK?
Darrell, thre was alot of youth riders down. I hate to see anyone hauled off but especially the kids . There was ALOT of them out there at Friday practice. Lucky know one was seriously injured. We just watched Brandons urine for 24 hrs. for blood and all was good .

Ya he is fine, Thanks. The track was hard, rough and slick. I guess he's too used to Florida sand.

I guess the "extra" padding come in handy this round.... :p lol
I had thought to myself that must have been what it was.

This race was sure brutal on alot of quads and kids .One kid is out with a torn liver
Brandon lost a nut off his tie rod(it was lock tighted as well ) and lost a tranny on the last practice.
Glad we brought a new one.
:scary:
