Alright it was my first race of the year so I wasn't too used to the gates and stuff yet but I got a decent start my first race and worked my way up. There were like 30 people in my class and i got 15th out of 30 for moto 1. For moto 2 I got another decent start and picked off a few people and passed a few people that went down. So that race the track was super rough in my mind because I am not used to all the braking bumps like travis and them, but I finished that race 12th. I finished 11th overall and missed getting a trophy when a dude passed me when everyone had to go around lapped riders and so thats how that worked out.

My friend Nate got the holeshot in this race, he is the one with the white gear and flat black colored helmet. I got about a midpack start...you can try to find me. During the race Here is Nate in 2nd place, the dude that won was super fast for C class. Here is me going off one of the table tops. Picture of me about to go off the tabletop, I eventually passed the dude on the Honda that was infront of me for 11th place, but some jackass went down on like the last lap so he passed me back.

That track gets technical after the first sets of moto's because even after he digs the track up it gets hard and dusty...too bad he wouldnt drech the track before practice and use some of the water to keep the dust down..

okay well this how my weekend with my new back tire well during practice (running with the 85s) i finished the first of the two doubles and i just ride over then b/c im not ready to jump them quite yet with this bike well my bike stalled on me at the end of the first double, some kid didnt see me and his front end hit my back tire makin me get off balance, then right after that some guy come up over clearing the first double and just landing right on me...i have tread marks to proove it all over my gear and well i didnt know what to do b/c now im just face down in the dirt with two bikes on top of me still running and i couldnt move, well they eventually got the bikes off of me and wouldnt let me move b/c they had to check me out to make sure i was okay but i knew i was b/c i was moving fine (i thought they took it all a little to seriously) but 10 min later i got off the track and i guess when that guy hit me he hit me head on, and it looked really nasty, many ppl came up asking me how i was and if i broke any thing HOW AWESOME!!! but ne ways during the heat i took second and in the main it was pretty rutted up and i kept knockin the bike down then stalling and i wasnt able to finish..but the thing that pissed me off was that when i was trying to get it started the flagger of to the left of me watching some other corner was yelling at me "get her off the track she doesnt need to be on the track in the first place" well ya that was my weekend (friday night)
