Todays races were for a rain out on 1/19. I raced in 85cc beg. and open. First moto open class I got the holeshot then fell to second in second lap and then fell to third in last lap. Second moto beg. class was only one race apart and I was worried I would be to hot/tired to get a good finish. I was second in take off and held. In my third lap I was tired and fumble with a gear but was able to hold on to second. Third moto open, I fought for the holeshot but came out of the first corner in third which I held to the finish. My last moto in the beg. class I got the holeshot but slipped to second in first lap and held to finish. Overall.....85cc Beg. 2nd Place.....Open 3rd Place.

Had a great race night, track was in really good condition. They added a new jump in the first turn which was cool. I raced in the 85cc beg. and 65/85cc open classes. First moto (open) I took the holeshot but fell to second after the first corner then to third place. In the third lap I took back second and held to finish. In my second moto (beg) I got the holeshot and held first to the end. Third moto (open) Started in second place and stayed in that position to the finish. My last moto (beg) was a little tricky, the fog was so bad the announcer couldnt see us. I took off in second but was able to take first place in the first lap and hold to the finish. Overall......... Beg. 1st Place and open 2nd Place.

The weather was great for the races this weekend. I raced 85cc Beginner and 65/85cc open. I did better in the beginner class, I finished the first moto in 1st place but 3rd in the second motto. I started off in my open class good finishing 2nd place in the first motto but in the second motto I was just wore out and after the second fell steadily behind, finishing with 5th place. I still need practice in my corners and hopefully my track will be dry enough so I can get some practice time in this week.
