Vet X Round 8 Glen Helen
Posted: December 9th, 2008, 6:24 pm
Well what can I say. A nice day out, cloudy, 65 and no rain. Race 12!!! 
This track is going to be hammer by the first moto let alone the second. 
So I took an infield lap to check how bad the bumps were before each race and decide which lines would miss the most. Yeah right. 
Actully I don't feel to bad today considering every corner had accel and braking bumps. A steering stabilizer is def a good thing to have that day. But I don't have one. 
One corner got me, foot off the peg and slightly jammer wrist, no harm though.
The best moment came after a crappy second moto start. Down the big hill (St. Helen's) my buds in front and two others ahead of him, it was like a train down with each of them following each other on the far left, I pull out, click fifth, blip the throttle and pass them all in to the corner
Thank you Glamis for the training to do that.
Anyway not great finish 7-6 for 6th overall out of 10.
A great video from idiotboyz / Randy in race 10 first moto. Hey watch out for that hay bale.

A fun short table I can clear easliy just after Talledaga turn in the background. Talledage was kind of a pain because of the decresing radius at the end of it. I told my race bud about it before practice and he still when off it.
