Sooooo.... Who Won Ocala FT???

Scott270r · September 18, 2006, 02:43:39 PM

Brady,

Na, not talking smack just dissapointed, he is an excellent rider, and I haven't gotten to race him still. He looked fast and seemed to find some good lines out there. I was looking forward to squaring off with him and then I saw he and Kirk Kennedy (Not brewmaster) leaving, which I understand since it was close to 11:00 by then. But there will always be next time. Its good to see more and more people coming out. I hope this thing grows to be much bigger than the GFTL I used to race.

P.S. Brady, I hope the rest of the points races can be on nights where the quads are by themselves, it put us really late getting home...but aside from that, as always, we had a blast.

By the way, are you not racing anymore? I thought you were going to bring out the G-13 (backdoor special) bike?....you closeted 2-stroke lover....

I know. He was WAY disappointed. He said he's a motocross guy, but he loves that flat trackin'.
I was disappointed that he left too. I think that 4 stroke with that big 'ol motor might have given you guys a run for your money. He seemed to be getting around the track well. Kennedy did well too. I like the one wheeled wheelie off the start. He just hung on and rode out. You guys in the Open class were definately fast and put on a great show. I was impressed by the Intermediate and Novice classes also. They ran good, and for the most part mistake free. I think once people start to get their setup dialed in to the track, that the racing will get much faster. Plus, remember, you were racing on a virgin track, with virgin clay. The track will only get smoother and faster as it gets pounded and worked in. I too hope it grows. I am going to start tryng to buy up some used flat track tires like we discussed a few weeks ago, so everyone who shows up can race.
I hear you on the late nights. It's going to be hard to do a quads only night at first, due to economics, but as we get going, and the schedules for all the groups get set and we streamline our racing staff, I think it will get better. I was actually thinking about starting a little earlier to help alleviate the wee hour racing.
You know, I did go out to practice, but my mind was going a mile a minute with things to do so I decided to pass on the racing. My quad still isn't speaking to me! Maybe after things settle down. I guess that's the problem with making a business out of doing something that you like. It'll be awhile until I race you guys anyway, I'm still afraid of that orange pee wee.

I wasn't aware that they made a Suzuki that didn't break down?
Oh, thats right, they do. It's called a Yamaha.
Jump on that one Scott! Because, in fact, my Zilla broke down before I tore it apart.
So Ha.

Jump on that one huh........well........ speed kills..... so keep racing that Yamaha...LOL.

How about that one Brady!!

You know the little LT250R I was on didn't break down and it ran with a cracked piston for 2 races. But seriously, I hope you get that LT500 up and running, its 20 years old now so you know they need some more TLC than a new bike does.

......Just kidding about the Yamaha thing, nobody get there panties in a wad.

P.S. Don't make me take Gary up on his offer and run his LTR450 in the intermediate class now, that's a Suzuki that can run without breaking too.

you can never go wrong by buying a suzuki and you can always go fast.

The LT250R is getting the engine rebuilt. After that, Thomas is supposed to race it (or Tim) in the intermediate class. I am done with testing on it for now, I am putting all my focus on my 330R for the open class.
