[howboutchaw]

Yes, I was there on Saturday. That sure was some sweet racing! The finish line jump is off the hook. I was #00 on a red ex and I finished 7th overall. How did you do? What ex were you on?

Look behind your neck on the pic you can see part of my helmet. I was running a red 400ex with the number 83 on it....i finished 3rd in the first moto, then the second my chain came off and i finished 7 or 8th.....thats the second race that chain has came off:mad:

i went to a track in rochester IN today called D+D it was a different track but fun

rico what is irfanview?

[howboutchaw]

TRX400EX-
It sure is a small world...we were the two racers fighting for 7th position in the feature moto. It sucks your chain came off. My girlfriend got a pic of us going into a turn. I am the guy in front of you spinning dirt. Where are you from anyhow? Where was that race at today that you went to? I took today off cause I crashed so bad on Thursday at practice and I was sore as hell yesterday racing.

[trx400ex]

see if this is too big

[trx400ex]

I am from Crawfordsville, about 3 1/2 hours north of QC, yeah that was pretty good racing, it was kinda hard to pass on that rack, but the one i raced on today was horrible, one lined sandy stuff...my chain poped off on top of that tabletop with the bump on it...sucks but im used to it...time for a skidplate i guess

[trx400ex]

Hit that double after the back straights in 4th pinned....i wish i had a CRF or something to try and triple a couple of those
Heres a little double..

[trx400ex]

my lame attempt to make it out to the triple

[trx400ex]

double

[trx400ex]

i swear im almost done

[trx400ex]

Pic of the finish line double...my dad didnt get any pics of me hitting it hard.....how far would you say it is to the end?

[trx400ex]

yeah ill try, gotta work on my starts, im tired of coming from behind

[howboutchaw]

Hey Rico
This place is in oakland city IN. about 30min north east. Evansville IN. Is't about 90min. west of Louisville KY.
Got to have your nuts srewwed on tight for the rythm section!
Also they have open practice every thrusday from about 3:00 to dark.

trx400ex
I have to work on eveything but is't still a blast
Also hope your weren't the SOB that took my gate possion when we got back for the hot lap.
haha

[trx400ex]

nope i started 2nd for the hot lap and came back in 2nd in the same gate....

first moto i started on the outside and it worked out good, but i thought i could do better on the inside but with a 2nd to last start i dont think so

do you triple that jump after the double after the start? i wanted to but didnt want to go down trying:eek:

Rico come to the race in July, the dude said something about a TV station being there or something covering Quads...pretty cool

The only jump that gave me problems was the triple right before you go up the hill, other than that i loved the track, i just wish it was closer!!:scary:

[howboutchaw]

trx400ex
I tripled it many times in practice but it hard to do in a race.
Got milk the frist double to wheels back down on the ground to get as much speed as ya can.

I think best gate is one or two to the right from the box.

I have never seen anyone make the triple going up the hill on a qaud but the bikes make it look easy it about 70 foot. I have the best luck doubleing it 3rd gear pinned.

I lucky it's about 30min. for my house.

[howboutchaw]

Man, I have got to start prof reading this **** before I hit reply.
My last post makes no sence at all!!

[trx400ex]

can you triple that little one in 3rd?
i was hitting that 70 footer in 4th but not the whole triple, i would think about trying it, but probably change my mind when i see it again..i was landing in between the two and bottoming my front out HARD....landings are steep on some of those..

What gearing are you running on your ex? ive got a 16 front and 38 rear, but ive got a 36 i might swap on there

[howboutchaw]

"can you triple that little one in 3rd?"
yes just make sure she's pinned. Some times I do fart on take off just for that little extra boast!! haha

I'm so poor i ran 20" rear tires with 15 / 39 gear. Butt am getting 18" klaws this week. so that is really going to mess with the gearing.

[indygncc]

How far of a drive is this place from Bloomington, IN? Do they have a money class?

[howboutchaw]

From Bloomington, IN I would guess 2 hours at the max.
Sometimes they run what they call outlaw qaud, it pays, but not sure how much.

[trx400ex]

last time i went there were some fast quads there, really fast, this time there wasnt that many....bryan baker was there, i think hes a pro in gncc or something

[howboutchaw]

Had a few emails on how to get to Quad City , so here is a map off of their website.:)

[MX_Racer_20]

did anyone see me there Saturday? i was the only one racing on a raptor. Actually the track is not in oakland city. Its about 10-15 miles east of it.

[416exmx]

man i love this track. i usually race here but did not get to go to the last two day race. i hoped to go to the next race but had an accident monday night that will prevent me from goin.

[MX_Racer_20]

i know how you feel 416ex. I broke my left foot racing at QC saturday. Doctors say 2-3 months before i'm ready to ride again.

[racin 400]

Man i wish i had this quad in the backround.Track looks fun too far for me too go tho:(

[MX_Racer_20]

i think he said that was a yz400 motor.

[trx400ex]

yeah its a yz400, i have a video of his spill on the first little double after the start

[MX_Racer_20]

Heres a couple pics i found from the race last weekend.
