    Bill Ballance in Oklahoma

    Hey guys this weekend in Oklahoma @ Hallet Gold Rush, Bill Ballance will be racing in the Pro class. I will be running the pro class also, I don't have nearly the bike he does but I can put my bike on some trails that motorcycles have trouble getting through. Maybe if I can stay w/in 5-10 minutes of him I can add that to my resume'.Will look good to future sponsors. What do you guys think?

    Bill is used to the tight tracks too. He runs some of the Mid South races which run on single track bike coarses. So......good luck!

    Thanks Jeff,
    What states does MSWS run in? I'd try to make a few of them if they were near home.

    honestly, i dont think putting, "Well i stayed within 10 minutes of bill ballance" will help u with resumes. Sorry. i wouldnt look at it that way, ide be more worried about staying somewhat close, more importantly in 2nd place, so that way if he breaks, u can beat him, lol, then u can put that on your resume

    Thanks Guys
    My mom is trying to talk me out of racing in the Pro class this weekend and running A class instead. The thing is, I run Pro with most of the local guys that will be in the Pro class @ Hallet. I don't really think I should run A class but Mom's paying the entry fee. So it's really her decision all I can say is "I would prefer......."

    Popo> Did you really put lapped by Bill on your resume?
