I'm in the shop doing last minute bike prep for the race I consistently have the most fun at every year.

Who's going? What bikes & classes are you guys riding?


I'm signed up for 125 Master and the new "Freedom" class (see below).
I may switch from 125 to 250 Master and just ride the 250 all day since my wrist is still tender from a bad dismount in July.

I will be there! Tonight will be my first time even starting the 150 since I moved from Michigan last year (fingers crossed on that jetting) and I haven’t been riding for a couple of months. I plan to race 27+ and maybe bring the YZ to race the 250 master class too. I’m by no means a master, but I can’t wait.

I ended up racing 250 Masters and Freedom classes.

Had some trouble holding on with my injured right wrist in the 250 Masters and went 14:16 for 14th overall of about 25 racers. I felt like my starts and speed were ok, and had a lot of fun racing two-strokes with some bad dudes on an awesome track.

In the Freedom class I got it done with a 1:1 score. The second moto was a lot of fun coming from 3rd and chasing down a guy named Matt (US Army) for the win. My buddy Mike (Army Airborne) finished 3:3 on his CR500R.

These are the motos from Freedom class (250 Masters hasn't uploaded yet)

I rode practice on my 95 CR125 Saturday. I thought the old bike class stopped at '89 for some reason or I may have raced it. Not in shape to ride 40+ at moment
Youngest boy won both Supermini motos.
Older boy popped out of a rut and smacked a tree 3rd lap of the A/B main while running in top 10 & dropped back to 23rd or so. Pretty bummed after getting 5th at All Star race but shit happens........now time for Top Gun....

That A/B class is no joke. I'm usually around 15th to 18th on the 125 in years past, but if you make a mistake you get shuffled back quick!

40+ was awesome. I'll be 40 in time to race it next year. It's going to be tough to decide between 250 and 125.

I rode the 40+ class i don't know why but i was thinking it only be like a full gate. But we had two qualifier races in that class. I'm glad i got 17th and qualified the novice and master classes had qualifying races too.

My friend was in the 2nd qualifying 40+ race and crashed in front of someone who hit him and shredded his leg.

His leg was still leaking when I saw him with Joe after their 40+ motos.
Joe's friend is a tough dude in his 60's, after that crash and losing all that blood he was still hanging around the track fist pumping and yelling during my moto near the end of the race order.
