Brashear, TX (5/8/06) - The opening round of the Extreme Dirt Track Series promoter Terry Reynolds faced several uphill battles to kick off the season as he was faced with rain, trains, and ATVs. After a beautiful day of practice on Friday, the rain arrived overnight, but unfortunately the event trophies and t-shirts still haven’t arrived because the UPS trained derailed in route to Texas, which left Terry Reynolds scrambling to produce trophies in time for the race, and he would just have to go without the t-shirts for the weekend. Luckily a local company was able to produce the trophies on short notice, which put one issue behind him, but now he had a bigger problem on his hands with Mother Nature.

Saturday morning, the track was a muddy mess with puddles everywhere, but Reynolds wasn’t ready to throw in the towel, so he began enlisting as many riders as possible including ATVA President, Doug Morris, to go out and start rolling in the track shortly after noon in hopes of getting in some racing, and by 2 PM, the track was in race ready condition. Without wasting anytime, the heat racing got underway, and they were able to get through all but two of the heat races before the rain moved back in and shutdown the track for the remainder of the evening as it rained into the night.

Once again, the track was a muddy mess Sunday morning and it remained overcast and misty, but Terry was determined to finish out the racing this weekend, so at 8AM, they started rolling in the track in hopes the rain was finally over, and fortunately for everyone that made the long trip to Texas, the rain had its last hoorah and was over.

The remaining heat races were run, and the heat race results were used as the final results in order to wrap things up early for the amateurs, so they could get started on the long drive home for many from the East, which left plenty of time for the Pro Heats and the Pro Main Event.

#708 Harold Goodman did everything he could to prevent #4 Tim Farr from making the pass, but Farr still managed to squeeze past him for the Win!
It was a red podium with Honda 450R's sweeping it. The win by Tim Farr surely was a confidence booster after struggling to finish a Moto at the MX Nationals.

The Pro Class had nearly 30 riders signup to compete, which was an impressive turnout, and the riders were split up into 3 different heats to narrow down the field to 20 for the Main Event. The start of the Pro Main had Harold Goodman grabbing the Holeshot with Tim Farr and Keith Little right behind him. Goodman would maintain the lead for several laps, before Tim Farr was able to slice his way around Goodman on the inside and take over the lead. Farr was as smooth as silk this weekend on the extremely rough course from all the rain, and he went on easily to take the win followed by Goodman and Little. Shane Hitt would finish out the weekend in 4th place ahead of Daryl Rath as the Honda 450R sweep not only the Podium, but also the top 8 positions in the Pro Class.

#131 Samuel A. Mcclure was catching some air as he went on to take the Heat win in the Vet Class, but he would finish second to Marc Noreuil in the final results
In the Pro Am Unlimited, Mitch Reynolds took the win while he finished third in the Pro Am Production Class with Harold Goodman taking the win followed by Keith Little. Candace Lee picked up where she left off last year with the Women’s Class win over Bailey Williams with Paula Shank finishing in third place.

If it weren’t for Terry Reynolds determination, the opening round would have been a disaster, but he wouldn’t give up. While Terry battled to overcame all the obstacles off the track, his son, Mitch Reynolds, put in a great weekend on the track, which surely made it all worth while for this racing family.

A complete forum race report with all the event details will be posted within a few days covering some of the pro class and some of the amatuer classes. Also, pro interviews and and race videos will be available as well.
