Have to hand it to the Millville track builders for making one of the coolest obstacles I recall seeing on a PRO track in years

I’m referring to the jump they placed in the whoop section. While, dozen of riders get my vote for the biggest balls, Dean Wilson in the second moto wins for being the most innovative AND the biggest balls. That is until he took 6 inches of sand off the top of it!

That was pretty sick. Also that steep step up jump that mostly every 250 and even 450 had trouble getting over. Overall, the track seemed to be tough, rough, and awesome. Big props to the Martins for a great layout!

I thought for sure it would be the drop off.

Second 450 moto Kyle Regal passed Windham on a the "Whoops Wall". He never let off, hit the top 1/3 of the wall and just skyed past Windham panick revving all the way WFO. It was sick and I have some photos that I will post this afternoon after I get the trailer swamped out and find my memory sticks. haha

This was after the lap in moto two Kyle had passed into second, fallen down in the sand corner between whoop sections before the "whoop wall" and was then charging back up to second.

The one at Milville held up better. Freestone's had three-foot deep ruts in it.

GuyB, Thanks for the hats yesterday!

PS. I have some cool photos of this wall but can't get the sizes right on here. Any help suggestions? Here is Townley trying to stay in the lead totally compressed into the wall.

The reason I liked the sand wall jump is it just isn’t common to see the best riders in the world taking so many different methods. Even the same rider would do it different lap to lap.

It’s fun watching a section you never really know just what you will see. Because chances are you will see something you will not soon forget.
