I cant take this any longer. Ive gotta start racing more often.

Im gonna schedule all my shifts at work in advance for next season. Im just hoping to get 3 or 4 more HS in before the end of this season.
You guys have a blast. Wish I could be there.

liteandsirens · January 31, 2006, 10:29:31 AM

Oh yeah. Chillinthemost. Are you gonna move up to B Open, or am I gonna have to choke on your roost during my next race?

Albright335 · January 31, 2006, 11:13:53 AM

Phil and I will be there as well...

Looking forward to it!

PLEDGER#76 · January 31, 2006, 02:32:51 PM

Utility class on saturday and the A-CLASS on sunday Joe, beware of the 25mph speed limit through there they will nail you even though kids as young as 10, 11, 12 years old and up are flying down the sides of the road and passing you!!!!

There are plenty of Raptors. I did my first race last month. It was a lot of fun and everyone was helpful with advise.

I'm going to do C open again. If I do well at this one I will move to B open for the next one. I would maybe move up this time but this is only my 2nd. race and everyone has much better equipment. I havent had time to make many changes to my bike.

dynodon · January 31, 2006, 04:47:46 PM

Can we race to the first turn???

liteandsirens · January 31, 2006, 05:21:15 PM

Im j/k about moving you to B open, although I think your on your way anyhow. As well as you did last race without a steering stabilizer, that was awesome. I broke mine on the 3rd lap and got 5th. It was Hell without it. We will have to meet up at Gatorback if your going. See ya

svtbolt04 · January 31, 2006, 05:37:43 PM

Chillin, what place did you come in last race being in C open..

To see how you would do, go onto the FTR website and compare your times with the B open riders to see where you would have stood there.

I know its cool to have a B after your number, but once your there... You can't come back. My advice, see how you do the rest of the season in C and if you think you are better than the B, move up there and kick some arse.

Chillinthemost · January 31, 2006, 06:50:29 PM

I came in first, and my bike is not set up for this. I did put on a steering damper and some different bars. Hope this will help with my endurance. Still running stock tires and shocks etc.
I dont want to move up until I'm ready but I'll see how this weekend goes, I'm sure everybody rides different in different terrains.
I'll be #10 this race on the white YFZ, grey F350 w/ enclosed trailer. Come say hi. Matt.

YFZ450-Tampa · January 31, 2006, 11:10:48 PM

I went to Big Cypress this weekend and got to see part of the track and is looking great, besides the mx track that is really nice, hope to see everyone at the race

Chillinthemost · February 01, 2006, 09:46:02 PM

I talked with Brian and Josh at the meeting tonight, they said the track looked like a lot of fun.

YFZ450-Tampa · February 01, 2006, 10:53:18 PM

Yes, they were working on the trails with Amanda, Carey, Leonard and some others I don't know or don't remember, I just change my swing arm that was broken, got a new chain and swing arm skid plate, now i can't wait to get ot the race

Chillinthemost · February 05, 2006, 07:25:56 PM

Great racing today, those rocks were brutal. Made my new high dollar steering stabilizer worth every penny.

YFZ450-Tampa · February 05, 2006, 09:03:38 PM

Hey dude, I had had a great time today, it was brutal like you said, but it was a nice track, now looking for "Gatorback", if you haven't been there, let me tell you, you want to be at this race, for me the bes or one of the best.
How did you do ? there were a lot of "C" riders.

Chillinthemost · February 05, 2006, 09:41:45 PM

1st. place, 5 laps in 1:56.

svtbolt04 · February 05, 2006, 09:43:34 PM

Who came in second, do you know? Im scared to race against you if you decide to race in the HS series.

LE450-RACER#77 · February 05, 2006, 10:15:38 PM

Good job Matt !! Looks like you found your calling. I guess all the hill climbing must have tought you how to ride the woods huh.

Good job, on the afternoon race, some of the "B" riders didn't finish the 5 laps, but those rocks, roots and woops at the end of the race, were all over the place.
If you keep those times, you could move up

A friend of mine named Jeremy..he lives here in Malabar - he is fast also..he led a few laps as well...

Congrats Matt!!

I had an ok start...5th into the woods....2nd out of the woods at the end of the first lap...that is where I stayed until the 4th lap when being exhausted took over...I ended the 4th lap in 3rd...and decided to call it a day. Condsidering the last 3 months and injuries...I think I rode well. Just have to get "built back up" endurance wise

Congrats to all who finished - it was a good time!!
