I have about an hour and a half of video to edit from Loretta Lynn's. I will try to have it up in a few days.

This is just a short 2 lap video of our bad luck in the 90 auto jr class. Brady was running 6th when he slid off the big ant hill and flipped after they threw down 100 gallons of fresh water on it. he was down a lap after he got back going so we ended up in the LCQ. He just needed to get a good hole shot and lay down 2 good laps, top 4 and move on.......:huh

well we had fun anyway. I know several of you have been there before but dang that one hurt! 30 yards from the checker flag.

Hey Marc the quad ran great, thanks for the clutch set up and advice. That thing hauls the mail with his 65 pound butt on it. He lost the chain, actually the master link broke.

I think his hole shot would have been better in the heat race but he isnt used to the power and how hard it launches so when the tires come up he chops the throttle. I watched his helmet cam video from the heat race and when the gate dropped he nailed it and when the wheels lifted he chopped the throttle. He lost about 2-3 bike lengths which put him mid pack going into the first turn. He rode ok and settled into 6-7 until he rolled it.

In the LCQ we talked about staying in the throttle (no matter what). I told him to lean forward, keep it pinned and dont let up until he got to the turn. He used the high line going into the ten commandments which cost him 2 spots, he was faster than both of them through that section but they were faster riders than him so they got away from him after a little bit.

as always, great video!!!
just wanted to say thanks for taking me and my family out to the bridge, the kids all had a good time.

p.s. did you happen to see the back hoe in the creek toward the end of the weekend? kinda funny, takes a couple kids and a few hours to move a few rocks, takes a back hoe and 5 grown men the biggist part of the day to put them back.:D

Hey Stein he looks good out front...:D The little one on the right is where we started. Brady would only make one lap before the race ended...fun stuff.
