First of all, props to that guy for going out and trying it.

Second of all, you are all clearly forgetting that QUADS are the real enemy. Carry on.

Holy F**k, I have the utmost respect for that guy to ride and post his video. I dont see how I was critiquing his riding, But if you took it that way, I apologize. . I was just playing off the old Brandon's first race video. Sorry for just trying to have a little fun. I am guessing all the guys on here talking crap about me posting have never laughed at anyone? I highly doubt it.

I ride and I am probably one of the slowest guys on this board. I am ok with that because I have a blast riding and know what my skill level and limits are.

Guy B, please delete this thread. I dont want anymore of these overly sensitive guys getting upset.

Sorry for ruining your day ladies. I hope we can all be as good a person as you all are. .
I'm not offended at all, I was more poking fun back at ya and overall Vital in general. I laughed at the video too, It is funny as I said. All good on my end no need for an apology, we both know you can't take this board seriously.

He’d smoke Brandon but only by using the same tactics the tortoise used to beat the hare. One thing is for sure, he definitely doesn’t have Brandon’s gonads. Say what you will about his technique but Brandon certainly wasn’t afraid to pin it...

Yeah for real, never seen so many panties in an uproar before. Talk about sand in the vag. There were no desparaging remarks or insults made toward anyone, oh except for SJW 's scolding you and accusing you of never racing except on yhe keyboard. Must be a full moon.

I thought the guy did fine. Rode at a pace he was comfortable with, made a few mistakes, but kept going and finished the race.

Well, this kids shit is more pimped out than a pro.

I see faster kids on straight junk with no money, no helmet, and no gear at the local sand pits riding in tennis shoes.

And when you upload a video and can't spell amateur correct, you're asking for it.

There is one kid I bought a rear sprocket and chain for because his was ratcheting. And he'd make it around that track and clean all the jumps no problem........with his old sprocket.

So you're not allowed a nice bike unless you're one of the fast guys? I bet you're one of those guys shocked that the industry is declining too. Twat.

That video is pure chaos!

I will say, in my area it's not typical of the C class. We have kids that have been racing C class for 4-5 years at least and have multiple practice and race bikes. They go to training facilities and travel all over. For the C class.... I just don't get it anymore. When I was younger It was always my #1 goal to GTFO of the C class. But now we have kids making a career out of it. It's nuts....

Same here, but then again we have a beginner/D class at most races here. C class here isn't what it is throughout the rest of the country

This is why you need to spend a few years on a two stroke. Most of them are hitting all the jumps but can’t handle getting a little sideways and crash

Also Brandon has achieved a level of fame that few of us have. We can admire Brandon for the good qualities he displays; toughness, tenacity, bravery, and a little flair too.

In short; "We are Brandon"

(slow clap, or we can all chant it, whatever)

Yes, it’s borderline ridiculous in my opinion. But then again I’m just an old washed up never-was +30a rider who is getting older and slower by the minute.

That track is gnarly. I'd probably look really lame on that track too.

That track looked slow but fun. Small peeky hard packed jumps that are probably very consistent lap after lap. Ride the whole track in 2nd or 3rd depending on your style. It’s looks like the type of track you can probably hit 80% of the jumps the first lap you ride on it. I’d love to have it in on my property.

I watch Brandon’s first race more than a few times a year. Nothing will ever be better.
