What has been going on all you old timers to ATVRiders??? Most of you probably won't remember me as it has been I believe over 2 1/2 years since I raced..so I am sure theres a ton of new people on here. Anyways, wanted to shout out to the people who were on here from 03-07 when I was on here a lot. Hope everyone is doing well =)

As for me, still doing some flying plus I got into street bikes..ahaha can not believe it because I never thought I would see the day I said that, but it came about half a year ago when I bought my 2006 CBR600RR. Plan on doing some track days with it and possibly getting my CMRA racing license if I feel up to it when the time comes.

I did however, a few months ago, get to play around on a beat up 450r for a little bit. Was definitely interesting to see if I still had it in me!

He races, he wrecks, he races, he wrecks. Until he can stop wrecking he is out of racing:devil:

Honestly, he has his nose so deep in the books that racing is purely a "when" he can thing.

It wasnt long ago he hollared out " Hey Pop, that chick Kara is on Scarred again":p We do think about ya, glad to see your doing ok.

Welcome back! I remember reading your posts alot back when I lurked more than posted. Looks like you've still got it on that 450!

Nice CBR as well, I also got into the sportbike thing for a while. Had an 07 GSX-R600, LOVED it, but just didn't enjoy it like I did the dirt. I'm seriously digging the pink Repsol look, it's awesome.

I've been doing great. Might be going back to school to get my pilot ratings for that to be my career. As for now I'm working at one of the area cycle gears. Wish it paid more because it is really a fun job. I believe march or April will mark three years since I quit racing quads. I *might* get on a dirtbike soon to help me with my skills on the sportbike. Still in the Houston area but last few weeks I have been staying at the MSRHouston track. It's a 2.8 mile road course. Have you ever woken up with aj Foyt in your front yard? I did the other day! lol needless to say it has been quite an experience staying at the track. My view in the mornings is of an entire half of the track. It's awesome =)

I remember you from back when I didnt post :p The repsol is really nice looking bike! But if you wanna hone some skills for the street bike, look into a sumo for sure! I have heard it helps alot!

We are good -thanks!
Yup. we are still racing. Well.... the kids anyhow. Troy and I have hung it up. Cant afford all 4 being in the racing scene anymore.

We are preparing for the 2010 WORCS season and maybe a little Mx. We are doing a 250 build for Brandon right now and Kelseys racing an LTR450 and doing well on it!
Speaking of scarred... I LMAO when the kids seen it.

Brandon said you was hot !!

Good Lord, my boys only 12 !!! :eek: :p LOL!
Good to hear you are doing well. ;0
