Damn, Looked like lots of people on the ground. Can't wait to come out and play.

Flat track looks nice, did you ride it?

 

I was kinda ill Sat night. I definitely will next time. Want to get a slider shoe too.
Robby Bobby & Zack do a really good job on it. Sunday you could see all the rubber on top of the clay.

 

Absolute chaos, love it!

 

sounded and looked more like a demolition derby!

 

I don't mind that as long as everyone is on the same page. Where things get dicey is when one rider is happy to turn laps in 22nd place, and the guy in 23rd place thinks there's a cash prize for 22nd...

 

it almost looks too packed.. do they grid by laptimes? it would almost make sense to do heat races and have a main event for each class?

 

turn out was bigger than expected so they kinda had to fly by the seat of their pants. They did do heats as lap time qualifiers for the mains in the MW grid. The MW class is just about every bike out there from Groms to TTRs to XRs.
Also they did a 2 wave start. I started in row 10 on a 4/3 grid setup...lol. I had to use the 1' grass patch by the pit wall all the way into turn 1.
31 stock XRs/CRFs in the XR class. Also Josh brought out the scale in the heavy hitters class... found a 198lber in that post race tech. Race winner was ~290 & on a grom! :up:

 

I somehow got around every one of those crashes in F3 advanced and middleweight, had some close calls though
