Tomohawk Raceway (pics)

[Pappy]

Today was the first day of thier season, and it was some great weather for riding. Today was just open practice. I was expecting some quads to show up, but i was the only one there.

A fair amount of bikes showed up so i snapped a few pics.

[Pappy]

the course is a natural terrain based track with some nice berms

[Pappy]

There really isnt too many jumps, and all could be done on a quad

[Pappy]

#182 lives close to this track and was getting some seat time in before tomarrows race at Mountaineer Raceway

[Pappy]

others where getting used to handling thier bikes in the air:p

[Pappy]

without a huge crowd, the anklebiters came out to play:D

[Pappy]

they used to have a 110 foot tabletop , but its been cut back to around 80 feet. some huge air is possible on this baby

[Pappy]

wider angle of the big table

The hare scrambles course is pretty damn rugged. If you want to practice for a gncc here is your place.

[Pappy]

the course is rocky on one side...and full of rutted offcambers on the other. i had a blast riding them

[Pappy]

hahha yeah jeff, working for moose has its advantages:devil:

[Pappy]

all in all he seemed to like the yfz

[Pappy]

he played a lil on the mx track also

[Pappy]

i saw him hit 2 doubles, but i was way to far away for a pic

[Pappy]

i thought this pic was pretty cool

[Pappy]

.

[Pappy]

maybe next trip there will be some quads for me to shoot.

[Pappy]

[Pappy]

Pappy Thanks a TON!!!

It has been so long since I have been on a quad....I had a blast, that YFZ rips!

Heading back over there today to finish laying out the harescramble course for the race scheduled 3/28

[cletusEX]

Looks like a good time. My buddies and I (d-7 xc racers) have been to a couple practices at tomahawk. It is a fun track to play around on and the xc track is real good practice. I was hoping to have my quad put back together so I could make it up there this weekend, but that didn't happen. Maybe next time. I'll definitely be there for the harescramble on the 28th.

[MooseRacing]

There were around 75 riders on Sunday and a lot of quads...

Tomahawk will be open for practice every weekend from now until late fall.

Thanks again Pappy for coming out and letting me ride a quad again....you will be in trouble if my Fiance' finds out who you are....after a little accident last year I promised I wouldn't ride sport quads anymore....Now I want to race again and she is pissed!

[Pappy]

Pappy who:confused: :(



I have never met anyone associated with moose racing or this track:devil: :blah:

How rough is the tomahawk HS loop compared to the Rausch loop?

[cletusEX]

Seatec, you thinking of showing up on the 28th?

I have never been to Rausch, but the HS layout is pretty nice at Tomahawk. It has a few rough spots, but overall it has a good variety of terrian. You will have high speed motocross sections and all different types of woods terrian. There will be off cambers, tight sections and some fast single track. I personally think it is the best track on the District 7 schedule. It is much better then the Budds Creeks wide open trails.

You should come out on the 28th....Cletus needs some more four strokes to run againist!!!!!

[cletusEX]

Yeah. . . What I really need is to get this quad together and get some seat time on it. I'm thinking about maybe heading up to Tomahawk one day this weekend. Riding somewhere a little different than normal.

You better get your hired mechanic over to finish up the work!!!!

Tomahawk sounds good to me for riding this weekend.

[cletusEX]

Yeah I gotta call the "mo-kanic" about that other subframe, but I got the engine, front end, swingarm, and some other stuff on so i should be good for this weekend.

[Pappy]

anyone know the hours and dates for open practice? i had a phone call about this and i couldnt answer it:(

[lol]

seatec-
the hs loop at tomahawk is great. I love it, it has a little bit of everything. But all in all its not to rough and i think rausch is prolly a lil worse. I think its a great track to practice at cuz thats prolly the only one in d7 that we do, and thats only cuz its the same distance as foot of the mt and its alot nicer lol
