I raced my season opener this Sunday for the STQRA, I recently got new a arms, shocks, axle, and swingarm for my cannondale and i got it running..... however, in the first moto it died on me when i was running a solid top 3 and the 1-3 positions were switching out with each lap.... very close race and my quad dies on me 3 times and the 3rd time it wouldnt start...... so i know it wasnt rider error...haha.... my new battery i just got was trashed! and wouldnt start unless u jumped it.......grrrrrr but anyway here are some pics

Heres part of my class at the start.....check out the new honda to the left of me....

I had the same problems this weekend but we were just practicing, had to push start it the day!! Killed it on the track once & was cringing & hoping nobody came around & hit me cuz I was dead dead dead :blah: going to get a new battery this week. You look good on that Yammi :)
