QuoteHey Dano, I also went to Bartow last night, this was my first time up to this track, and no to tell that I haven't been in MX tracks that much, I was feeling good specially at the last practice, by that time you guys where gone, but I had a good time, that last jump on the back is nice, I went all the way in the last 4 laps I did, I hope that practice help me some for tomorrow's ride.
See you guys there !!!

Dude... Did we ride together??? I thought I was the last to leave(8:40). I did not see anymore quads there. What's your number on your quad. I rode with 2 guys in my last practice was one of them you? I'm a blue yfz (# 39)

Anyway, glad you had a good ride. Maybe we ride together tomorrow. Now go get the quad all prepped. Hehe

Dano out

310R_Dude · May 20, 2005, 05:28:20 PM

Thanx T2Raptor guy, you have a great trip as well.

YFZ450-Tampa · May 20, 2005, 05:43:09 PM

Thank's T2Raptor, you do the same, and yes Dano, las practice was late, I have a white and red YFZ, with the #29C, at that final practice there where just 3 quads, me, my body with the Black YFZ 56C, and that blue 400 EX.

Have been reading this thread and am wondering. Would an old guy on a basic stock have fun rideing there. Also do you need anything special on your quad to ride. I have never ridden a real track before and have been wanting to give it a try. Do you very fast guys mind if I join you (maybe) and would you not run over me. Want to ride tomorrow and can not make up my mind where. ONF or Hard Rock.

I ride with anybody... I promise not to run you over. Heh

Hard Rock has basically four tracks:

Main track being the most difficult but all jumps can be rolled safely. There are alot of jumps to it though. I tell people it's like riding the Kumba at Busch Gardens eXcept I am the conductor.

The Sand track is just what it sounds like, sand. Has some jumps but usually is not kept up like the Main track.

The Outback track is a great beginner track with just tabletops spaced out and a nice little whoop section. Some singles too. It is hard packed and holds together nice.

The Roller Coaster is a trip to say the least. If you can climb hills without fear you will have a blast for sure! If you can't you probably will find it more than intimidating. The very first hill going in will let you know what you are in for.

C'mon, you will have a good time with us. I swear it.

Jim,

Ride1Rob · May 20, 2005, 09:02:37 PM

My bike is ready! Haven't rode it in 2weeks. She's beggin'
to be abused a bit.

As far as ATVALTZ, this guy has made excuse after excuse. Everytime there has been a solution. ZX12R 2wayed him and told him that he'd pay his gate fee if he got there. I had him a ride and he told ZX12R that he'd hit me up to see if the ride was still available.... That was 6/7 hrs ago and still nothing. Like Wayne said, Guess his pu..y does hurt :-/. Anyway....

Hope someone brings a cam. Mine will be in the shop for at least 2weeks. Found out today that I have the service plan on it so I have to send it back

.

See you fellas in the AM! Bright and early!! The "Early Bird" gets to the 1st turn.... 1st

Exmx54 · May 20, 2005, 09:16:05 PM

I wish I could go there tomorow, it's for sure the most fun facility in Florida to ride at!

LostCause · May 20, 2005, 10:13:34 PM

Ok ladies.......HAHA
Yall ready to ride out?
Got everything ready to go.
Just waiting for the AM to get here and Rob....
Oh it is the AM. Got to get a little sleep
Cant wait to meet you guys.
As for a stock bike. It will do just fine. My bike is stock and I hit most of the jumps there. Who knows, I may even try the TOWER!!!!!!!!!
Just want to remind everyone that you ride at your own level. Yes push yourself a little but ride smart not DEAD!

jbbj220 · May 21, 2005, 08:26:49 AM

As you guys can tell I did not make it down today. I got to thinking last night that I don't have nerf bars and a kill switch yet so might not be a good idea to give a track a try. going to get the switch and bars soon, so maybe next time I can give it a try. hope all you guys had a good and safe day.

Jim
