Racersandchaser.com Spring Shootout Series #1
Robert's done it again! Putting on a superb race for the local racers! Thanks again for letting us come out and enjoy those awesome trails!
The morning started early for me. Rolled up around 7ish, registered and took my friend Jason out on part of the course to warm up. It was the usual R&C style course. Even though we all agree that "Bridge Climb" sucks we had no other way around it. But, putting "Dragons's Back" back on the Beg./Sport course was great! As always "Tunnel of Love" is my fav. I felt fairly good for most of the first lap, but then lower back pain set in. I was on the new rig and just got done building it the night before. So I had very little time to tweak it. But I stuck it out for the next lap and finished fairly well. I was happy to have some competition finally in Sport/Clyde! Now I need to get my butt in better shape and tweak the rig for the next race.
The Short Track was a blast like always! Even though I was lapped by all the Expert/Pro riders I held in there for a 1st place. The ST course was a riot! The burms, sand pit, and tight turns on the Go-kart track, it makes for a fast, fun time!
Thanks to Marcus and Pronghorn/Icetoolz for coming down to support me. Thanks to Jason for coming out and trying his first race! Also thanks to Robert and his Family for the great time, prizes, and awards! Looking forward to the 14th!
