I didn't get to go. I was still recovering from being sick and I had to work anyway, so I was screwed either way. The weather was nasty though. Wouldn't have wanted to been out there, but I read where the turnout was pretty good - 76 racers - considering it frickin' snowed during the race.

I'm guessing you didn't go? Did Daniel or David go?

David and Daniel didn't go. I got 3rd in the first moto and 4th in the second, for 4th overall. It was pretty cold but I still had a great time. I'm 3rd overall in the series, and just one point behind second place, so I'm gonna make sure I ride every race of this series. It's a short series, so maybe I'll actually be able to finish one for once :D.

Very nice! Great job, man. So, I guess you're going to make the Nocona race then? :D I can't wait. I'm wanting to ride real bad. It's driving me crazy.

Hey yall, Scott me and pieter are talking about going to nacona but we are going up there saturday and are going to find a hotel room and stay the night where not going to sleep in the tralior again that night at villiage was pretty bad. So maybe we could get together and ride or drive up there together well talk to yall later.

I'm going to Nocona. I have to get my valves adjusted and get my engine rail replaced before I go though. There's some kind of recall or something on the engine rail and I might just be able to get the part sent to me through another dealer, but if I can't I'm gonna have to drive to Ennis and let Action Power Sports do it for me. I REALLLLY hope I can get the part sent to me... I would hate to have to make 2 trips to Ennis to let some rednecks that I don't even know work on my quad. It's almost a 2 hour drive over there :grr. Such a waist of gas.

I thought your dad had been talking to Krotky about a 416 or a 440 kit

Cool. Where (what town) are y'all going to stay at? You definitely don't want to sleep in the trailer again when it's that frickin cold :D

I've got to travel for work that week, so hopefully nothing will get screwed up and keep me coming to the race. Let me know when you guys figure out what you're going to do.

I thought we would try to find something in or around Nocona. It'll prolly be about 3+ hours for us to get there, so we definitely need to stay somewhere. ANYWHERE that has a heater! That trailor was so FRIGGIN COOOOOOOOLD... I don't think I've ever been that cold before! Do you know of any places close to the track?

i don't know. gainesville maybe the best place to find a hotel. i don't know if nocona or muenster has any hotels. the track is only about 30 minutes from nocona.

dammit! i just got a call from work this morning, and unless something changes, i've got to fly to finland tomorrow, so i'm not going to be able to ride. this really sucks. that would be awesome with everyone out there tomorrow. hopefully something will change, but it's not likely.

buzzy - btw - how's that new quad? :D
