Great fun in KY!

[EthansDad]

We had a great time in KY hanging out with the regulars. We also got some good racing done in between play time!

In the 50 limited class, Ethan got two bad starts. Moto 1, we had THE LAST gate pick, putting us far outside and moto 2 Ethan jumped the gate and was backing up when it dropped.

our motor was running strong and as seen in this pic here might be the only stock limited quad to pull a starting line wheelie!

That's great! I read the nice article they had on him at ATV Young Guns as well. Keep up the great work.

Cool pic! You don't see too many 50's wheelie out of the gates! LOL

The #00 Cale Deal & #296 Hayden Skellet are both Dade City riders. Both of em did pretty good this weekend. I talked to Cale's dad after both moto's. He said they had a lot of fun.

Ethan and Cale both rode hard. They put on a great show. Cale was flying the table before the finish line, he almost cleared it on stock shocks! Congrats to Ethan for some hard charging to the finish line for the overall. Great weather and fun weekend.

haha yeah Cale definately rides hard and "tests" the limits of his equipment LOL. He aint afraid to air it out.

We all run stock shocks down here! Our 50, 70, & 90/100 classes are all stock appearing. We have to run stock shocks. We can run aftermarket axles, but no aftermarket shocks. Some of these kids are hitting stuff on stock shocks that literally makes ya cringe! LOL

[EthansDad]

Definitely a lot of talent this year in the stock limited class. Based on practice times, I thought it would be a 3-4 way dog fight to the end. Cale rode very hard, and Ethan had a blast riding with him.


We hope to see more of that Dade city talent keep those gates full at the nationals! last year at KY, only 6 kids on the gates for the stock limited, this year 13 I think.

[fastrnrik]

Yeah, there are LOTS of fast kids at Dade City. The 50 class is usually 10 - 12 deep. The 70 & 90/100 class routinely gets 16 - 20+ in each class. They've been splitting the classes. It's crazy. There were over 200 entries at the last race a couple weeks ago.

Congrats to Ethan on win #2 , sounds like Ethan and Cale were putting on a show of their own . It's great to see that pic of an almost full gate with several heavy hitters in the mix , this class is growing well.

That was a great 50 limited race !!!! Double 00 ran real hard (especially with stock shocks ) and the 22 was smooth and kept on coming til he made the pass . Great race.

Stock shocks...not for long :)

Cale was jumping way beyond what those stockers should be asked to do

I have a feeling you will see Elka shocks and ATV Fourplay soft bars on the "00" to even the the playing field a little.

Ethan never gave up and made the move when Cale opened the door, so hats off to him.....It's not how you start, but how you finish and Ethan is a competitor to the end.

Congrats on the hard fought win
