Got a horrible holeshot like usual lol. started in 1st shifted to second got about half way through the RPM's and it fell back into neutral you can see where I do the wheelie is where I shift back into second. we come around the turn and the guy in front of me swerves into my line over the jump so I got landed on by the yamaha.

if I would have got a better holeshot I could have stayed with the leaders and passed them in the whoops. I am clearly faster then everyone through them....

I am on the right side of the box in blue gear with the white helmet. watch it on youtube in 720p hd

looked good out there. you take the jumps like a champ but from the videos some of your turns where wide? lots of fun

yeah, I had to take some of the turns wide to get the speed for some of the jumps. I was the only one in the class doing the step on triple off, and the to doubles in the middle of the track.

I still have alot more learning to do, but im getting there lol... I will get a win before the season is over......
 
heck yeah tj you are lookin as smooth as glass compared to the others in your class. thats the way to ride whoops for sure, always been my strength.. keep at it and the "W" will come.. you jumping classes next year?

thanks, it's kinda funny. when I first started racing the blaster I could never figure out the whoops... the track had an open practice one day, (back in 09 so the track was completely different) and I was doubling through the whoops somewhat decent and one lap I decided it was time to triple in lol :D ......

it did not work and I ate it hard lol.... whoops have been my strength ever since...

and I plan on moving up to B production next year..
 
this is a vid of moto 1. it was raining for about 3 hours and stopped right before this vid so it was really muddy.


and this is the quad A's and B's

I was trying to figure out y they were goin slow, we dont have a c class here lol. we have 1-3 riders in b all women lol just depends on who/how many show up. I'm actually slow but I practice with the fast guys to get better. I can go fast for one maybe 2 laps then I'm slow. that's just the 1st moto. anything else is pushing it to even be a c class rider LMFAO

I didnt see much sandbagging in B class n those vidz maybe 2-3 guys
 
last nights race sucked for me.

first moto I got crashed out in the holeshot. and was almost a full lap down by the time I got going again. so I did not even try to catch up.
the reason I just laid there for a couple seconds is because my foot was suck under something lol....

and the second moto I got 3rd in the holeshot, and about a half a lap in my left grip broke loose and started spinning and by the end of the first lap it was almost completely off... so I just tried to keep the position I was in....

I went 10 - 4 for a 5th overall.

one of the guy's who crashed in the holeshot in the second moto broke his arm from what I hear.
