Keith Little and the LoneStar racing crew were anxious to hit the track. I found out later the benefits of bring along a 4X4 to the races. (to be explained)
Keith stated that he knew his chances of stealing the championship from Tim Farr were slim, but that did not change his determination of bringing home a win this weekend.
The popularity of quads has been raised to a new level this year. More and more spectators are arriving at each event to witness the intensity first hand.
I am guessing this car belongs to a local frequent attender of the tri-city speedway events.
I have covered mostly MX events this past year and have never seen some of the techniques of keeping tires from collecting dirt on the way up to the starting line.
Frank Batista has the longest trip to each starting line out of the entire pro line up. Frank travels from California to each of the EDT races.
As soon as the racing started it seemed like the rain moved in. The downpour quickly fill the track up with water and need much attention to be able to get any more racing in
The rain created a challenge, but with Rich Hetrick in charge riders were given the best chance of getting back to racing. The crew pushed as much water off the track as they could.
