a picture of the pit area right before tech inspection, there were some pretty impressive rigs there
another pit area pic, with Brad Phillips's (Innervision on the site) quad getting ready to be inspected
heres an inside view of John Natalie's trailer, and wow! is it nice! When I met John and Michelle, they were extremely nice and very easy to get to know. During an autograph session I joked around with John, asking if he had writer's cramp yet, and he said "I dont mind at all b/c I love this stuff."
John wrenching on his quad, he was adjusting the shocks a little bit before practice
I had to take a pic of Johns Fox shocks, they are not available on the market yet, but they seemed to work VERY well on his quad the whole day.
I got to take some quick pics of the track early in the morning, it was looking like it would be a really nice track, with a good rhythm section, some NASTY whoops, and some other technical jumps, and high speed straights!
there even was an option type jump...I was starting to get anxious to see how the track would ride for the racers
a pic during the riders meeting, they kept the riders there for a pretty long time
I got some pretty good shots during the practice sessions, and there definitely was a LOT of action during it, several wrecks and near misses!
