I plan to be there again, with a better camera this time to capture the action. Redrider24, you going again this year? If so, I wish you better luck than last year, and watch out for Sudsracer!!!;)

:p I got a better camera this year too!:grr: LOL! Yea, I got that pic here, I'll always keep that one! You had everyone thinking you were dead! I'm really glad you didn't get seriously hurt, that was the absolutely the most nastiest quad crash I have ever seen involving multiple quads! And I go to alot of races.....:eek: Look for a guy with a Black and Red Outerwears Hat on and it will probably be me. Stop and say Hi! Here is your pic ......

The body under the white 400ex is Redrider24! Action pic by: Rider11x..............

This pic is about 30 seconds later, After the pileup involving about 5 quads, the person seen standing up next to the rolled over quad with front beadlocks is John Natalie's girlfriend Michelle that is in Huevos 6. She was one of the unfortunate racers that got caught in the mess, but as far as I know there were no serious injuries. Hope this year is a safer one.:cool:

I'm not sure if the track will change, but the jumps are limited to the heigth of the ceiling, but there are rythem sections and challenging areas that favor good riders. Natalie and King make it look like childs play, but that's because they are that good! Good tight fast paced racing! Lot's of passing and action and noise. :D Dress warm! It is a little chilly, despite two huge torpedo heaters!

Just get there early so you have time to walk the track. Crazy Honda took first place in D class last year with a 300ex.;)

Nope, there was Blurr250x out there too (a total of two riders) whoopin up on Crazy Honda really bad until he got tangled wih a haybale in the last moto, allowing Crazy Honda to finally pass for the win.
A, B, and C class action was awesome, definitly a good time watching those races.

Ha! I wonder if Crazy Honda can remember the last time he was able to ride something??!!:devil: Nah, no 40 footers at Greene Co. I think the longest is a table top... about 20-25 feet I'd guess. But then I'm gettin old, and the memory ain't what it used to be... right Cody? :p

:rolleyes: Oh boy..................Here we go again! Remember the Fayette County Fair recap of the race?:

i placed 4th in the #1 moto..but thats ok i went on 2 my lcq had a battle a banshee and a 400piped ..the guy on the banshee was fightin with me big time and the 400 was out there all by its self so i knew if i didnt win i was going home and i wasnt wantin that so i got the banshee outta my way and he tried 2 wreck me so i just left him in the dust and got the 400 caused him 2 mess up and i went by and i was gone...then it rained bad real bad track was all wet and everything it was BAD...so the main started and everyone went 2 the inside on the holeshot i went wide and came away with 2nd on the holeshot and stayed there all night....i think if i had better tries i could have ran with or even beat the guy on the c-dale....whoever he was.... and it was my first time ever racin....makes me feel kinda good

Are you going to step up to B class Cody?:devil: J/K with ya. Good Luck! I'll try to get some pics of ya.........as long as my frail old body will allow me to move the camera that fast without filling my Depends!:rolleyes:
You better stick to MX because if you see me at a Harescramble this old guy may put a hurtin' on your pride when he laps ya!:D :devil:

Yea, District 5, and AMA. I think they may let you skip the D5 membership if you forfeit your points. You would have to ask on that one.:cool:
Anyone know if and when Natalie is going?

Sure did, that pic was taken by me from the arena seats. It is called Motorama, and it is a speed show for bacically anything that can be raced with a motor. It is held at the Harrisburg Farm Show Complex. Dana Creech was there and did a freestyle show prior to the main event arenacross, in which he wiped out a quad by planting it into the arena wall after going REALLY big for a trick, and could not get stopped in time. Never fear, his sponser was ready with an identical quad at the starting gate within a couple of minutes so he could race the main event!

Here is a pic of him racing there, notice how close you get to sit to the track!:
