I just tried callin Howard @neatvmx but no one picked up...I'll try again later and let you guys know

Posted by: 300exHILLER

Thanks

Posted by: muff

wow this sounds like its gonna be fun I just got off the phone w/ Howard

it'll be 2 days of racing and they'll be averaged, top 3 get trophies

each class will runn on their own...not like the gncc when everyone goes at once

the track sounds like it varies a lot,,,you start in a field and then go to logging roads and then to woods where it has some tight spots corners logs and the works, couple stone walls etc. he says its pretty flat and if it doesnt rain the fire crew will go in and make us some mud spots

there'll be food there

and i'll be there to, i will be puttin my stock axle back on so I dont have to worry about the tight sections as much

Posted by: quadman22

hey Wes, u got your tire fixed yet? im not working after this tuesday so if ya want we can go hit up some trails this week. it will be good practice

Posted by: 2000ex

Well, looks like I wont be able to make it

Found out today...3 days before I was going to leave that I have to be at a family 90th birthday for my grandmother.

Family does come first, but to find out 3 days before is ridiculous. I was sooo looking forward all summer to this race. Ahh well, there is always next year.

Posted by: 300exHILLER

That sucks man. I'm still waiting on my Razor 2's none yet but I will run with bald tires if I have to.

Any of you guys want to caravan up? I'm planning to leave at noon friday.

Hiller pulled off the pass of the weekend coming out of the woods that was great man!

Muff and Hiller I don't know how you guys did the race late sat 3 laps

at that place felt like 10 laps at southwick

So who didn't break or bend or dent something?

Posted by: 300exHILLER

That was the best time I had racing!!!
I don't know why I wasn't sore monday???

Maybe it because I slept in a bed sunday night???
Yea the track was rough and narrow but next year will be so much better.

Well now that's taken care of I'm thinking of going to Rocky Hill sometime this long weekend. On Friday I'm going check out a new practice track in on Rt. 44 on the RI-CT border. It might better for ATVs than uxbridge.

Who's going to Jollys?
My cousin and I sent in are pre-entry forms today.

Posted by: muff

yea I wasnt sore either

I filled out my jolly forms today but i gotta get them notarized sometime soon
