Glen Helen is getting ready for the Outdoor Nationals coming up on May23rd. As such, Don's track was amazing today. Very High speed, ... a lot of earthwork in front of the grand stands, great MX layout, double bermed lanes, nice long step ups , couple of big tables, all of the layout aimed for speed speed speed. Even had a 1/4 mile of pavement and the best thing was a fifth gear wide open set of singles with flat landings very reminiscent of Saturdays Supercross.... I absolutely used every millimeter of travel in my suspension today.... ( Thanks LES/LTR) My TC450 performed flawlessy. I had 17 bikes on my line and pulled my first Glen Helen Holeshot I am stoked Gave it up briefly and swapped first place back and forth with the same dude for the first lap and a half.......held second place for a couple of laps and after 6 hard fought laps I faded back to third or fourth only on the 6th and final lap.... battling and swapping positions time after time.... 6 long fast 3.5 mile laps . I have honestly never kept up this level of pace for an hour... I had one dude come up to me after the race and congratulate me on the dueling I had going on with one of his buddies.... Chazlom (2006 TC450) TT /GPKings was also there racing on the Novice line and had a great race as well.... Can you tell???.....I'm just a little bit pumped about today's race T
Way to go, HuskyT!! That's what racing's all about, and that's the stuff that makes it really fun! Sounds like you got your money's worth WoodsChick
