    Of course I had to go over to Kory’s pit area and see what new goodies he had on his quad. This quad is Kory’s “test” quad. Any new parts that come from his sponsors are tested on this quad first, then, if they pass the test, are used on Kory’s race quad.

    On a side note, Ellis is using a stock ‘05 swing arm. He said that Yamaha beefed up the ’05 swinger by making the walls a bit thicker. Kory said that so far it has held up to his abuse with no problems, unlike the ’04 swinger that has thinner walls and has a tendency to crack.

    While hanging out in the pit area, I got a chance to talk with Kory about his sponsorship through Yamaha, and he is pleased that Yamaha is stepping up and supporting racers. Kory believes that manufacturer involvement will definitely generate more attention for the sport.

    Kory also thinks that promoting the right image will draw in younger participants and fans, which is desperately needed to propel quad racing to the same level as dirt bikes.

    In between motos, Ellis did his best to promote that positive image, and was kept busy signing autographs, and talking to fans and fellow racers. Kory and his crew even brought posters along to hand out to the children.
    Here’s Kory with young fans, Mariah, Jamie, and Nicole.

    Kory said that Woodland MX Park is the first track that he ever raced at, and worked on building his skills there for nine years. Ellis agrees that Woodland is a great track for beginners. Every season the track sees many new racers. These are some of the racers in the 4-stroke Amateur Division 1 Class.

    #19, Reed Petchnick (pictured below) is a 13-year-old racer that went up against Ellis in the Open Class. Reed is a recent graduate of a racing course that Kory conducted this past summer in Washington State. Reed placed 5th overall in the Open Class and 2nd in the 4-stroke Amateur Division 2 Class.

    Here’s a shot of Kory during the 4-stroke Expert Class moto. Kory got a DNS for his 2nd Expert Class moto.
