well tomarrow is cody's race, so we did dead engine starts and a 25 minute practice. he didnt do bad. 25 minutes, 11 laps = 5 1/2 miles.

it gave me a chance to try out my new lens also

thats pretty cool. i wish i had a nice quad and practice track when i was that age. you wont regret it once he gets older! and 11 laps on that track must be rough but there is an mx track here, that 1 lap on it is 2 miles and we run 5 laps! talk about having too be in shape! dont ever let him stop practicing! you wont regret it!

the small size of the lens will allow me to get some better angles also
