Vet X Glen Helen May 4th

Well the day or evening started out by walking part of the track since most of it was the same from before. To my amazment just after the finish line four feet of sand was dumped in the corner. Probably for the National at the end of the month. I'm lookin at that thinking "This is not going to be that easy." Thank god for dune rides.
Practice comes and go over to that corner to watch the carnedge from the fast guys practice. Sure enough, several have the front dig in and over the bars they go. I must of saw fifteen people go down in that corner. Funny but unnerving at the same time cause I gota do it in about 45 minutes from now.
Moto 1. Great start, second behind Ron 111 again. Stayed with him until I couldn't get it into third going up the second hill. The acceleration bumps got me so I just held it nearly pinned in second to the top. That gave him just enough. Cynthia wanted to watch the Pros second moto with the Alessi brothers from the bridge. I pretty much knew the lines there but wanted to see what they were doing.
Finished fifth. Also found out the baggers are not going to get moved up until the end of the series. Both of them keep having a bad moto one way or another and because neither have gone 1-1 there to stay for the series. Seems fair enough, but this could knock me out of a podium finish.
Moto 2
Buddy!!! Hole shot for me and lead a lap and a half. Everytime I came into a corner I'm thinking where the hell are the fast guys? Oh ok. Finished fifth again. With that sand pit I figured a mistake free race is key. Well, it always is. But because of mistakes, stalls, and falls I end up Fourth over all. 
As it is now I'm tried for second with Ron for the series ending. However the fastest guy is a point behind and were heading to his home track Racetown395.
Finish order.

After the sand pit with the big jump in the back ground.
The pit
There should be some better ones coming when the e-mail comes with them. I know Chip took several coming down the second hill, I hope got some of the step up, but I think the hump before the next jump should be cool. Hopefully he got the big jump too but that will be of my back side. Oh well.
