    Round 2: Racetown395

    Wanted to see how everyone did and if anyone got any pictures? I was there but unfortunately it was a dash there and a dash back. My work had inventory yesterday (last night) and they were nice enough to let me race but I had to get right back to work.

    I finished 1st in my class (Womens C). My first first! I'm still fairly new to racing and can feel improvements every race. I really need to work on my cornering. Too slow and jumps.

    By the way, i thought the track was a lot of fun. the jumps were pretty nice.

    I wanted to send out congrats to the boy with the number 177. He hit a jump right next to me as he was passing and It was nice!

    Maybe moving up after a couple more races! Definitely need a bigger bike if I do that! Need a bigger bike anyway!

    I'll be at Havasu and should have time to hangout instead of having to take off right after the race. I'd like to meet some of you guys!

    I wasn't able to do Friday MX Practice, so I didn't know the jumps hardly at all....

    Open A - I got a bad start, and tired out VERY quickly(Being sick doesn't help to much)

    The off-road section was just SO rough, and it wore me out worse then even the two hours of Pro-Am at Pismo.

    I ended up 11th out of 20. I did actually qualify for the Pro-Main, but I wasn't up for racing it....just would have been a complete waste of money...

    Had a great time...and practice for the Havasu whoops starts ASAP

    I love this track and the MX and the roughness of the back section, unfortunatley I have terrible luck, my chain stays on for all of the MX practice and all of the unclassified, but when it really matters it comes off the sprocket and gets pinched between the swinger and the sprocket bolt so I dnf'ed Production A, then I had to fix it and couldn't get it fixed before Open A so I had no chance to qualify (which was a shame because I felt I could have podiumed in the Pro-Am, had I qualified and quad stayed together) but anyways I had it fixed and was racing the sport race and me and Dominic Deluca were flyin and I was runnin 2nd right on him and he hit the first table out of first turn of the track, and the way that table is built it curves to the left, anyways he flew off of it 3rd wide open and I was pinned right behind him and we both flew off the side of the jump (similar to Eichner in the pro start) and he crashed and flew forward, I bouced off the side tucked and rolled and broke my name plate, rear fender bracket and goggles (which sucked). I got up walked over to him to see if he was ok, but he wasn't getting up so quick like me, I guess he ended up breaking his pinky and bruising hip and shoulder, but anyways after about 3 and a half minutes, I flipped my quad back over upright, I put my helmet back on with no goggles since I broke em, and headed out into the middle of the pack of B riders, my eyes got so full of sand from them and the course, they are still red and the rain shootin in my eyes didn't help, so now my eyes are killing me and I ended up 4th because I could't really catch up due to no sight cause of my eyes, but o well, I love this track I just wish I had some luck with it

    I saw that Team Epic riders Josh Frederick and Jeremy Schell repeated their 1-2 finish positions in the Pro Atv class for the second week....

    Anyone know what happened to Doug Eichner? Why was Brandon Brown DSQ'd? How many entries were there for the weekend? The rain during race 10 was crazy! It got so wet, so fast. Everyone was sideways going down the fast sections in the back, and it was so slick in the motocross. I had left my air box plug in and my Yamaha started to suck water on the 3rd lap, I had to stop and pull it off. It was still better than how rough it got Sat. afternoon during race 6, 1 hour before that race, I found that my carb to cylinder head boot was cracked and was making my bike pop like crazy. Thanks to Roy Bloodworth driving the Yamaha support trailer, I replaced it and got to the line about 5 minutes before the race. Unluckily, I didn't get my seat latched down right and it came off during the first lap. It is going to be so cool to have Yamaha supporting the YFZ riders for the WORCS races from now on. Victorville gets whooped out quick. I think its a lot like Havasu, just without the heat. Good luck to everyone in Havasu and watch out for the spring breakers!

    Hey, did you pop you head into a Team Money$hot trailer asking about the intake boot? Three dudes talking and a girl on a computer in it?

    Also, As far as I heard, Brandon had clutch/tranny problems, and Lenny told me that Dougs bike had some internal engine problems, but wasn't sure what until he got it apart.
