CEC · May 01, 2005, 09:53:57 AM

have you been to tarpon on the east of 19 along anclote

dj_pizzim · May 01, 2005, 03:50:54 PM

Last time i went out there a nice man in uniform pointed out the no tresspassing sign i told him i didnt see.

53yfz450 · May 01, 2005, 04:03:41 PM

now they a cop car parked with a dummy inside.

CEC · May 01, 2005, 04:45:26 PM

From the way I understand it, the trespassing signs have come down since a company from Walmart has bought the property but Tarpon won't let them build it there. Just today, there was at least 15 trucks with bikes and atv's parked and riding.

LonesomeTriZ · May 04, 2005, 01:04:40 PM

What's the deal with sunshine? I thought it was for two wheelers only. What night is good to just hang out and enjoy the track? How much is it to do so?

Muddbuggy · May 04, 2005, 03:37:48 PM

Nope the quads are back

.

Wed. and Sun. are practice for bikes and quads, Friday nights are for quads only and races on Saturday for both.

kevin

LonesomeTriZ · May 04, 2005, 03:42:26 PM

How much is it to get in on Friday nights?

Muddbuggy · May 04, 2005, 06:19:41 PM

20 bucks for three hours of ride time

6:30 to 9:30pm every friday night.

the track is groomed every thursday (weather permitting)
so on friday we have fresh lips on the jumps and clean berms to roost on

. We have a great time, there's usually 12-15 quads out there on friday nights.
You can take a couple laps stop and make some adjustments and get right back on the track, theres no waiting for the bikes to finish b/c its just quads out there.
Oh did I say you get a full 3 hours of ride time for $20.

kevin

YamahaWarrior350 · May 04, 2005, 06:49:08 PM

I mostly ride in Tarpon but the cops always chase us off i havent been their in3 weeks i'll try it this sunday maybe hope the cops arent going to be thierr i'll be their at 7AM

kevin

LonesomeTriZ · May 06, 2005, 08:48:41 AM

Son of a pregnant dog! my woman made plans for Friday bight and did not tell me. I am going to try and get out of it. If not maybe I can go with out her. If we can make it, I will be in a big green crew cab Ford dually with semi tires and rims pulling a flat bed car trailer. I will have (most likely) my Blaster and Warrior. If all goes well we will have two of our freinds kids and our five month old. I hope to see you all tonight. If not, maybe next week.

Muddbuggy · May 06, 2005, 02:42:21 PM

Hey TriZ

I just noticed in your signature that you are missing something...........can you guess what it is

your missing a 04 Eton viper 50. Hey look, I just so happen to have one for sale...huh? imagine that...lol

hope to see ya there.

kevin

LonesomeTriZ · May 06, 2005, 07:38:02 PM

Hey, your right, I do not have a 04 Eaton 50. I wonder why?

Oh yeah, that is because I run only Yamaha's.

I am sorry I could not get out there tonight. I had the trailer loaded and the truck packed with kids and a cooler. Unfortuanty my other half did not get off of work in time to make it out there. I even weaseled my ouy way out of the other plans we had. Dammit, I just can't win. I will try and be out there next week though. By the way, what are the requirements for riding out there? Do you have to pay to get in whether you ride or not?

Muddbuggy · May 06, 2005, 09:03:01 PM

Its free to spectate and $20 bucks if you ride.

we had a good time tonight, there was probably 15 bikes out there.

maybe next time you can win and make it out.

kevin

LonesomeTriZ · May 07, 2005, 12:25:30 PM

Damn. I am not sure what to say about that.

Muddbuggy · May 07, 2005, 12:49:03 PM

OUCH!!!!!!

I sorry to hear that..last night just wasn't a good night...i duno what it was but too many crashes. Well look on the brite side now your dad has enuf time to work on your bike, if he needs a test rider just let me know.

LonesomeTriZ · May 10, 2005, 06:47:21 PM

What are the rules as far as safety gear is concerned?

53yfz450 · May 10, 2005, 06:54:46 PM

you must have a kill switch a helmet and goggles to ride. they recomend boots jersy and pants.

LonesomeTriZ · May 10, 2005, 06:57:10 PM

I have all that but the kill switch.

53yfz450 · May 10, 2005, 07:07:33 PM

you need one. they might but highly dout that they will let you ride.

dj_pizzim · May 10, 2005, 08:26:54 PM

QuoteWhats up with the spot right off brian dairy? I saw alot of people riding out there on sunday and i want to know if its safe, i just got down from jersey and don't know anywhere close to ride.

The no tresspassing signs and the giant piles of rocks in front of the entrances are supposed to deture people away, last i heard it was tickets for everyone no warnings pluss its small so i wouldnt risk it.

LonesomeTriZ · May 11, 2005, 12:16:38 PM

Quoteyou need one. they might but highly dout that they will let you ride.

Do they actuallyh pull it before hand to see if it works like other tracks do?

53yfz450 · May 11, 2005, 03:33:20 PM

no they will let you once with out it.

LonesomeTriZ · May 11, 2005, 03:36:05 PM

Okay. That sound cool.

Now, this is going to be a stupid queation, but I have to ask.

Are three wheeler aloud at all at any time? I know a lot of tracks up north allow them on certain nights. I was just wondering if the same went on down here.

53yfz450 · May 11, 2005, 04:08:37 PM

i dont think they will be aloud. you can go to sunshinemotocross.com. and call sandy or frank to see. :-/

LonesomeTriZ · May 11, 2005, 04:21:59 PM

Thanks. I did not think of that.

Where can you ride near Clearwater?
