Anyone going? I heard 135 pre entries so far. I'm no motocrosser, but I may embarrass myself anyway. This sounds too cool. https://www.facebook.com/events/265785786870235/
Let's go! It's been a long, long time since 40 small bores screamed out of the gate, rounded the corner and shot up horsepower hill. No way in hell am I missing it. Oh... and heal up. Big boys trip to Idaho coming up w/ some fast Cali guys. Early October is the word.
I'll get it on video. And I'll be cheating. That is, if a 144 jug is cheating There's gonna be 120lb kids running hot rodded small bores racing like this is the AMA national. I'm gonna need all the help I can get! The really cool thing is that's it a team race. Fastest qualifier teams with slowest qualifier, 2nd fastest w/ 2nd slowest, etc... Pretty cool! Except you know some fast guys are gonna sandbag qualifying so they get teamed up with a legitimate fast qualifier. Oh well.... its just for kicks!

I do not think it is really necessary but would be cool to know someone is there with extra goggles to toss you or something. As for a pit board I'm not sure even at my snail pace (this will be my first real MX in 15 years) I could read anything that would help me go faster. Just yell "hurry up" every time i go by or maybe a thumbs up or down as to if I am in qualifying position or not would be helpful. Actually just lie to me and tell me am am not in qualifying position if i am or not, it will make me ride slightly harder :>) I need to dig up full red plaid to wear for this race.
Can't wait to see this... I am stoked to hear the gate drop, and a WHOLE line of 125's screaming out of there.... I might bring a weed-eater to start up just so I can feel like part of the action...
Eh, my plans may have changed... There are these trails that I need to ride... they keep calling my name. Later,
