it was hot, that is all i can say... and Denny was fast, i seen him, after being knock out by 1 place, he flys around the track... but he had some jetting issue at the beggining... Forum's chain fell off which probably was a bummer for him becuase the track was in mint condition for a while... all in all it was a good day
Plante is freaking amazing, he is fast, he probably laped up to 7th spot... he just pulled away from everyone, it was probably to easy for him...

Thomas bike was mint, i love the colour sceme on it, i am deffently getting orange plastic with some walsh graphic kit and a blue frame...
here are some pics enjoy

Yeah, Plante is CRAZY fast. I wish I could ride like that.. I guess practice makes perfect... I wonder how well he would do on a stock 400ex ??

Parks kept having problems with his chain.. falling off and stuff.. which sucks a lot.. he seemed to be riding alright, and then his chain would fall off.

I am in the midst of mounting my hood.. I got a splash'n dirt number plate on it... and I fixed up the see through spots by painting it black underneath. I make this little metal mounting thing.. I dont know how it will work but oh well LOL. I will probably have it fully mounted by tomorrow. I had it just sitting on and damn does it look sweet.

Parks you coming to RJ's this wednesday.. I dont wanna ride around with a Raptor. :rolleyes: But get the chain fixed/tightened before.

I want to go to the Paisley national but.. I dont really like that track... its so boring to watch on that track. It seems like the track is extremely hard for the quads to ride on cause its skinny and the lips are all buggered up.

Should I cut my fenders??? I dont know how it will look with this hood. Any tips on what style I should cut it??? Right now I have the maier extender things off the bottom, so they look alright.

Man those are some great pictures. Does anyone have pictures of Thomas's KTM just sitting? I saw pictures of it in one of his forums, but never got to see the final with the plastic on. thanks

Bank did not get creamed. He got second place in the first moto and 3rd in the second. in the first moto he was the only person plante didn't lap and he was only a half lap behind plante. I think bank did very well that day, plante is just out of everyones league. Thomas was going good. hes finaly starting to get used to the machine. we arnt used to the motos being that long, alot of the local guys just got too tired. I had fun. My chain slide got jamed up tho. and snaped the chain.

i will get more tonight up....
i wanted to snap a pic of his bike sitting but forgot too...

ya i saw a lot of people getting tired out there, i am not saying that banks road bad, because he is awsome... he pulled the holeshot on the first moto after the crash...

and how do you get the video up on to the computer? i think my video card is fired after our computer got destroyed by hackers...

my computers screwed too. ad ware! trojans. I've been keeping it going by using adaware and trojan quarder. but it still does wierd crap. Bank was runing faster at gopher on sunday then i have ever seen him run. sometimes petker beats bank at gopher. But petker was no ware near him this time. plante gets awsome expierence riding with the best in the world at the gnc's.

i no way did i mean to diss banks... i got a lot of respect for all those pro riders and the same with all riders in the Jr. Class... if you miss under stood me, sorry about that, same with Thomas, it was a joke, i now he can ride fast and that weather played a huge role...

But what happened to Justin, he came back from almost dead last, and worked his way up...
i got a couple pics of you Carl jumping a table top, but they don't seem clear any more after i resized them...

bro them some nice pictures!. Plante was crazy fast. YOu going to paisley this weekend bro??? i think we are. but Im a little woried. there were too many people at gopher. and paisley is alot narrower. There will be a few good reks i bet. Me and denny are going to gopher on friday for practice. I need to build up my stamina. the pro motos are almost 20 mins long... Im just not used to it. I get tired after 10. I wish i had a place i could build my own track near by. Bro you gotta get yourself a doozer. and build a mean track.

400exBro
06-17-2003, 12:34 PM
i thought you guys were going to gopher... ?? Just come to gopher so you can ride for 20 bucks for as long as you want instead of 60 bucks for 40 mins of riding.
i doubt i will make it to piasley, becuase everyone says it is a bad track, plus i have a wedding to go to sat night... i probably will be at the poker run on sunday tho, just because i need to pratice on the track, and need to work on my techincal stuff like sandy tracks..all the tracks around my place are hard packed stuff that are wided open and don't get rutted up...

ya i can get a dozer from my buddy, speaking of that we just got a dump trailer and going to build a better track... put a 45 double in some whoops and a double... it is behind my house, last time you probably didn't see it too well becuase it was muddy and all the wood that was laying around...
you guys want to ride some tracks around my place on the 28th?? i got 3 good tracks, it just depends what kind you want to ride...

Fleshwound
06-17-2003, 02:07 PM
bro, that number 33 you wernt sure about is marco april and he rides a crf 450...yes he is really fast!
i would rather go to paisley because there will be way more competition and i would like to get as many points as i can...
and the 28th i believe we will be up north for the long weekend!!
oh yea nice pics post more!!

400exBro
06-18-2003, 12:12 AM
is it just atv at paisley then?? if there are dirt bikes too, count me out...
what time is sign in?? regular time or is it like the nationals at gopher??(8-10)

but you guys got to come out to my place and ride some tracks this summer, becuase i am selling the ex soon to the kid with blaster(Carl and Luke know who i am talking about) and then going to buy a yzf 450 or crf 450 this fall, so i will probably not finish the season...

forum
06-18-2003, 12:22 PM
i agree paisley isn't going to be that good. yes the bikes will be there!. I think im going but it sounds bad to me. Denny might be going by himself. I don't feel like getting up at 4;30 in the morning to ride a track i don't like. not to mention not safe for quads. the gate is so small there will need to b 3 or 4 qualifiers if the same number people show up as gopher.

400exBro
06-18-2003, 01:29 PM
i agree with you... i haven't been there, but from what people say it doesn't sound to fun for quads... but i will be at gopher dunes for sure...

4:30? damn that is late, we have to be gone around at 4-4:30 as well, so we would have to get up at 3 30, going to bed at 1 am, piss drunk only to get up at 3, still not able to walk to striaght i don't think i will be able to race...
But i am going to ride the track once, on the 20th of july i will be going, becuase i want to see what it is like...

O, and how should i build my track, technical with a lot of whoops and double doubles(like some stuff that is on Huevos 5 where Dana and them go side by side at diamond back), you big air and less dangerous?? i am building soon, so i am debuting on what to do, i want to be prepared for any track... i can build tracks, i just can't design them...:rolleyes:

Paisley Is on of my fav tracks. Jumps hard packed and tight.

Ive got some stuff coming from esr for this week end so I will hopfully finish. Nice pics bro sorry I coulndt give you a show for this thread.

Adam, that is alright... there were so many 250r there that it was hard to tell who was who... i sure they will hold more nationals in the near future... it was a lot of fun...
