Thanks Ron! I'll do my best! So far there's only 3 of us signed up for that class on the pre-entry list. I should do pretty good as long as know one else signs up, lol!!! P.S. This is kinda funny, we're all on Kawasaki's, lol!!!

Hey Ron, I thought you said that about Honda's, lol!!! If I ever get a chance, I would like to get back on a Suzuki. As you know, our bikes always have price tag on them, lol!!! We won't be able to stay around for the whole weekend. I think one day will do us in! Good Luck to you Baggers if ya'll are racing on Sat!

Not exactly the story I wanted to tell, but I got 4th place. To start off the day, we got there way too early, like 6am. Then we had a long delay in starting the races because it was still a bit muddy. Good thing because it took 2 hours to start up my bike. It was 28 degrees, no wonder! 3 plugs & a bottle of luke warm water in the radiator finally paid off. Finally, I think around 10:30am, they let us out there to practice. Made 2 laps & couldn't go no more, heck it was just practice anyways, lol!!! Moto 1, got a great jump off the line, but lost the holeshot in the turn. Track was still a mess & I went down 5 times in those deep ruts every time. Not very fun trying to pick up a dirtbike buried in mud! Going over those huge jumps was very challenging, but I did ok over them. Starting to respect sand now, had no problems! Moto 2, almost the complete opposite of Moto 1, I got a bad start, but made it up in the turn a bit. Track by then it was better, but not great in some sections & I didn't go down this time! Overall, it ended up being a pretty fun day & gained some lifetime friends along with it!

Congrats to you! Getting out there when it is that cold is hard enough by itself. It just goes to show your true dedication. The most important part was at the end of your post, you had fun and made new friends.

You don't get that playing baseball, football, or basketball. Out of everythng we have done, MX is #1 now!
