If you are coming to Washougal, a must see is TNMX at Portland International Raceway. $15K pro purse, $1000 for holeshot, a huge crowd and a lot of guys trying to make some cash. We go every year. If you make it, come look us up - #500 and #663 on the Motosport Hillsboro row.

That’s a good time and usually draws a few bigger names. I’m going to miss it this year

Man that always looks like a great race and it is awesome for them to put up a large purse for the boys.

What happened to Politelli?

He got the big 100’ double wrong and lawn-darted into the face of Lanphere’s leap. Didn’t see it happen but he was down a while. There were quite a few big crashes last night and several ambulance rides, unfortunately. Good crowd and a good vibe.

Is that why they restarted the race? Hope he is okay. What was the deal with the guy who didn’t understand where the first corner was?

The ambulance is no stranger to that place.  
I’ve had a few big ones there myself.  It is a fun track just a little tight and squishy. Guys that haven’t been riding all winter because of the rain show up there and start hucking big jumps rusty on race day because track never had practice days back then.

In that video posted by Swap, Harlan basically said that double was dangerous.

There was a red flag on heat 1 when a fast local (Wharton) KO’d himself in the whoops. No idea how bad Politelli is hurt. Buddy saw it and said it was a lapper. We’ve been at Washougal since Wednesday. Hell of a week. Memories
