[QuadJunkies]

WORCS brings us to the scenic Washington State for Round 4 in Auburn ,Wa. at Pacific Raceway located just 20 miles SE of Seattle .

Riders from several States including Canada attended this round,with Washington riders domintating in entries .
Youth riders were no exception with once again full gates in the Youth classes .Alot of young talent was to be seen at this round along with larger classes such as the Shifter class that had 14 entries this round!!! Sport classes once again with overfilled gates .
Washington State provides many tracks for quad racing including MX,GP and Flattrack.

Fridays practice was canceled this round, so some of the riders rolled in later ,others took advantage of walking the full course,and just hung out with there familiy and friends.

The biggest talk of the wk end would be what weather to expect.
The Ole saying"April showers, bring May flowers" would prove to be just that this round-and more!


How about some SnowCross ??

We decided to take advantage of the down time as well on Friday and walked the full course before the weather changed.
Youth riders would have a variety of elevations changes with several of them being slick and slimy with large rocks threwout the course.

Trails were mainly single file ,which concerned riders....Preparing and planning ahead would be key. There were spots that were just enough to squeeze threw for the full sized quads.

The MX Course would be a little more technical .There was a few good sized huckers on the course and most of the kids I talked to seemed to like it.

Due to Sound ordinance, racing actions kicks off a little later in the morning,which meant we all got to sleep in!!!!
As most of the riders suspected,storm fronts moved in and gave the racing quite a variety of weather!! This is very unusual weather fro the Western States to be getting so much snow this year and were all begining to think we may never see Spring!
Rain,hail,snow ,wind and sun all in 10 minute intervals threwout the entire wk end!

With no Friday practice this round, coverage kicks off with the youth unclassifed . This would be the only time riders would have to get familiar with the MX and XC sections.
