    At last! its racing season again in the Pacific NW and #1 GP 50 Expert, 310R mounted Mark Johnson started off right where he left off last fall...in front. Well he didnt start in front, but he did finish there on GP day. The BMP/Watson Suspension 310R (nor Mark) has never been known for instant starting so Mark rounded the first turn mid pack and proceeded to pick off everyone but 1st over the first loop......and then ran down Chuck Worley on his KTM450. Chuck faltered and Mark cruised to an easy win. XC day wasnt quite as strong, but Mark battled with Jim Tully the #1 XC guy all day with a few lead swaps... in the end Jim came in first with Mark right behind.

    Troffer showed up with the shiny new white 250 dinger and broke it in, Sedore, Foley and Paul S all put in solid rides and a new mystery Husky rider showed up on a white TE300.....

    Updates on the rest of the NW Husky crew when I have results and pics.

    Nice! When will your crew be representing the new white huskys?

    "Chuck Worley" Thats not woodchuck is it? Short fast dude from Seattle area? He used to ride Honda? Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong Chuck.

    BMP is selling Austrians as fast as they can assemble them....so we will wait a while longer. Besides, if they are only as fast as the orange one's in Sunday's race we might end up going slower :eek: :thumbsdown:

    The wind drag would slow him down and imbalance him and then he would fall over. Happens to old people all the time....

    I talk all this crap about people having helmet cameras to document the races for us but I forgot my new helmet cam. First race of the season and the morning of I was doing maintenance and forgot to grab it lol. Next time I won't procrastinate lol
