    Exclamation Don't Underestimate the 300!

    This week, I decieded to go big. At Bluff Creek on the MX track, there is a 65ft double (tabletop). Anyways ever since the making of the track, the left side of the ruts has been completely rutted out by dirt bikes. Well the jump throws quads completely screwed up. So no quads could clear this jump. Then outt of the blue I see a 300 clear it with no problem. I catch up to the guy and get the info on how to clear it. Seeing that the 300's wheelbase is closer, the ruts didnt affect the jump if you run to the right alittle. To make a long story short of many hours of trying to clear it, I finally cleared the old girl and made all the 400's and raptors drool. HAHHA. I can't believe how fun it is to hit a big 65 footer. The air is unbelieveable. I never thought a 300 would handle it. After a few jumps of easy clearing, I started to pull off the saran wraps and almost heelclickers. (dont think my body streches in that way.) I gotta get some pics of that jump its great! Can't wait to head back out.
