Brother, it was all I could do to sack up for the double part of LLeap. Especially with the watered jump face . Only saw a couple badasses huck the entire leap at this event, the large mound right before it, suggests discouraging.....supposedly, local legend John Grewe still clears it - at age 54, he was here but injured still.....

Was my first time making it to vet fest and man what a perfect day. Track was rough but in a different way than the national amateur day gets and the turnout was great. Not quite as deep as the national but definitely more choppy. I can attest too that I've never seen the rollers that difficult, they took so much energy to get through.

Those rollers need to be leveled and be rebuilt from scratch they no longer hold up. Those werent rollers i dont even know what to call them but the last few times they have gotten bad like that. Also would like to see somthing better done with that table top after and the turn into larocco. Every time im there someones laid out on that landing, this is the second time ive landed and had a bike or person laying there. Landed a foot short of the bike went right over and luckly didnt eat shit. Dude also was still there a lap later but somehow finished 6 places ahead of me and qualifed while i was running 15-16 and got credit for a dnf then switched to last.

What is the Warrior class ? I never heard of it. I had a 71 ct 70 with a heal, toe shifter, I never thought about attaching a sidecar. Aztalan had a 125 class in 09 I think, for there round of Racer X series, had a full gate.

We were there Friday and Saturday and holy crap did that track get rough Friday . It was fun for a while but ended up getting together with a guy in the turn before loraccos and high sided into the dirt . I'll be out for a while , 4 broken ribs , broken clavicle and slight punctured lung . The sad thing is I felt great on the bike all weekend , I love my 19 kx 450 . There was some really fast dudes there and the track was fun

It was fun for sure, how did you guys like the Sun in your eyes in the late motos? Couldn't see Finish line table, Loraccos, and the Monza wall, they were all blind!

Went to re visit results and they have been pulled down, or at least I can’t find them now.

I suspect a Rupert protest may have occurred.
