Riggin Smith sent the big double on his 125 every lap in the Future Pro 12-17 class. They DQ'ed him from the race because they told the youth not to jump it. LOL

And he got some of the biggest cheers all day! Lol!

I'll say, the big jump this year is done right. It is huge!!! Great for the crowd, and safe for the riders. It is big but not technical, I didn't see any crashes there all day. The other lane of the pro section, the 6 pack munched up a couple guys trying to go triple triple through there. But the top guys were solid through there all moto long.

And racingfortheson, your boy was ON IT! Holeshot his "future pro" moto and finished second. Only guy that passed him was a Loretta's B rider, very impressive!!!

I hear you loud and clear The Show Goes On sounds like a good turnout. It's definitely the best game in town. Good luck out there...

I hope your hard work pays off, your hands hold up, you have a whole boatload of fun man and go out there and get you a win man. Who do you have to deal with Jeremey Durret ( among others I'm sure, )? Reckon that tracks getting pretty rough. Thanks for the Trackside updates that's awesome

Stiff competition here today, I went 8th out of 10 in +25 expert, lost a great battle with a good buddy of mine, had a blast and didn't crash!

Track is rough!!!!! Rougher than normal with the extra traffic and higher than normal caliber of riders this weekend
I'm riding my 250f in the 25 class bud lol say hi tommorow ✊

You probably just smoked me a few minutes ago. I think I'm out of gas for the weekend. I was in last just trying not to crash that moto, lol

Track was awesome, I was horrible!

But I did beat my buddy in the first moto of the day! Got my revenge! Haha!

Dead last gate pick got pushed wide in +30a/b. Came back to 14th, I was happy with that ride

Duct tape is doing the trick!

First 250 pro moto is set to start around 1pm, so bout 30 minutes from now

Still only 2 seconds between first and second place. Lappers might start to play a part, almost to the 20 minute mark

Been a few positions swapped around in the top 10, good racing!

Tennant was pushing Kobusch hard at the beginning and they kinda dropped Taft but now you can throw a blanket over the top 3!!!
