Well, today was my first mx race. I had never been to this track or ever jumped a real double, or big table top either. Today turned out alot better than i thought it would. Here are some pics of the action. I got 3rd the first moto and 2nd the 2nd moto.:blah

lol, I got 3rd my 1st race, My last race I got 4th my heat and 6th my main. I think i'd have better luck winning b class than c class as many sand baggers as there are.

Yea i know how you feel. Our C class is a bunch of guys that belong in B. Its pretty bad when C guys can do more then almost all B guys and some A guys.

I dont think i will be quitting harescrambles, but until i have the money, time and means of transportation to go to both i will be going to less XC. This track has a race about every month, and it is only an hour away. I was suprised how much fun it was once i started landing on the down slopes of the landings :p

Yeah, last race we had a lot of us were jumping jumps the a class riders wern't jumping:eek2: I should pry be in B class but is it so bad to wanna win one race before you move up? I think i'm gonna wait tell I get a axle or tell I win one and if either of those arn't soon then i'll just go for a points race in c class.

Oynot: if you read this were you at cr yesterday?

dude that has to be some major out-law stuff, cuz i know that even the small tracks around here require nerf bars!!

Today was sweet. I saw someone chasing a little kid around the track. Did you trip over the little quad, i saw someone do that. Did you see the guy nosedive that one jump, all i saw was him being carried away on a stretcher:( . I hope he was ok :ermm:

This pic seems intense, but it was just some drag racing.

No I never saw that guy wipeout but I guess it was really bad. Seen lots of good action though. I recognized your bike by the red light covers. You looked pretty good out there. I never felll but I chased my 5 yo around , I was in a bright green shirt. Did you know they have trails there also?

Congrats on your race, but that doesnt look like a 90 footer, at the most its prolly a 60 footer. Looks fun though:D

UC now, that is a fun jump. Those were the biggest jumps i had ever done, and i didnt do the big ones on the track before the race, so i had to hit it and see what happened in the middle of the race. This was my favorite jump, i think its called a step up or something. It was about 25ft, but it got good air and hang time.:blah
