I hope you enjoyed the Live Race Coverage and if you would like to add some photos or comments feel free.
The complete race reports will be posting within a few days :D
Does anyone know what happen with Borich? WHy 4th?
or why 5th?
So if I am understanding correctly, you feel Ballance should be punished for something out of his control? Even if Yokleys quad broke down, or a tornado blew the check point people away, a racer may not pass in that area. The checkered flag is all that mattered at that point. And all four racers fullfilled that requirment. It came down to scan timing, not race timing.Quote:

In no way did Barron beat Ballance. He ran a great race for sure. But he did not beat beat him according to the flag or the rules.

Good coverage Harlen, I heard about that dodge, But i thought it was just all the streched truth.
I liked the course, Iv actully never drivin my quad threw that much water before. I had it well waterproffed before i drove down from Illinois.
But that was the absolute worste race for me ever. I had a good holeshot, seeing there where only 3 other bike in my class under 450CCs. A little better than mid-pack, Started gaining positions pretty quick by picking good lines and fallowing far enuf behind somone that I would have time to react to make the pass or find another line when they became stuck.
Somewhere out in the Desert (thorns&brush) part of the track i cam up on a bottleneck after bottleneck. I then tried to take the highside of somone who had bent a tierod in a rut, and i didnt make it. I slid down and then bacame used as traction for everyone else to make the offcamber rut.
(BIG THANKS TO SANTO D. AND THOMMAS B) for helping my get my quad out.
Well i got going and was beat, so i took my time getting back to the pits, where i changed my googles and gloves, and took off. But it wasnt the 3 mile marker and my quad started sounding like it was hitting the rev limiter at about 4-5000 RPMs and after a while it wouldnt hardley turn anything of 3000RPMs. So i made it to somwhere around the 7-9 mile marker and there I found out i couldnt go any farther, I attemped the hill a few good tried, and it just wasnt gona pull me up running the way it was.
SO i turned back around and found a fire road and just poped, and sputterd back to the pits.
Everyone who finished good job!

He crashed and went over the bars on the last lap. He was pretty bruised up after the race. His legs caught the bars as he went over.Quote:
