Branson?

Wonder how the turnout was.

The pits were about half to 2/3 full. Most classes a little more than half the riders returned.
Still some excellent racing, and the weather turned out nice until the end on Sunday.

I didn't take many pictures, but here are some from Saturday. The first series is Austin Forkner making the pass for the lead.









Caleb Self



Talon Kobush



Chad Crawford

Is that little kid on #366 riding a 250f or 450?

He rides both. he hauls to. He is like 18 or 19.

In that picture, he's on his way to 2nd in the 450 Open non-pro class.

Wow. His stature makes him look like he just graduated form the 85cc 12-13 class.

He must be a holeshot machine with that HP/weight ratio.

there were tons of DNS's

Those would be the people who didn't make the trip back a month later.

yea I know that

Track did seem to hold up a little better than normal except the jumps are getting pretty wore down. They had been watering for 3 or 4 days prior to actual practice day. There were probably 6 to 10 DNS in each class.

Still some good racing. Jason Anderson out of NM was hauling the mail on his KTM. Kobush, Forkner, and quite a few other MO riders were moving it also.

I know of one little kid that had concussion from a rock being thrown from a little bike. Another intermediate rider hit with a rock in the neck that could have been pretty nasty but just left a nasty looking mark.
