in conroe, hustler track. It can hold water

[88hatch5_0]

what the hell is a hustler track?

[jammeejamm]

isnt there a race there? if you are racing, rubber side down baby!

[01YZ2NV]

Thats one place I always wanted to go ride.

[davbrucas]

There are 5 tracks there...the main track is sweet. The GP track is also fun as it is all sand. I wish I could make it...maybe next time.

[Big Thumper]

They allow quads?

If they did and I wasn't on crutches...I'd be there. I'm going nuts not being able to ride!

[AnotherRedHead]

I was wondering why I havent seen yall at village, what happened???



ER doctor, that track was fuckin sweet. Main track was cool as hell, prepped the best, but damn was that GP track fun! 4th gear wide open big sweepers, 100 plus ft tables, i never put the bike in 2nd gear. Big giant, humunnnggous bowl turns, 3rd gear railing city. I dont think Ive ever had so much fun practicing.

Race was pretty cool, except for the fact that it poured down rain for 3 hours before the race. They let 4 wheelers practice first, and I stayed off for practice since I rode earlier. Track got ok by the time I was up for over25 moto 1. It was really really rough, i never rode a track that had big 100 ft jumps where I had to pick a rut and just go for it, scary for sure. Braking, accel bumps everywhere, 4 laps and I was just glad I didnt crash. Came in 3rd in over 25, Heath Voss was 1st, pretty sweet to ride with someone you seen on TV! Didnt even smoke me too bad in 4 laps either hahahah.

I had a blast, we are going back for another race on aug 31. Everyone needs to come!

Good job Nick. Was that your first time at that track? I love that place. I just picked up a 2008 YZ450F and had JM do the suspension. Rode for the first time in 5-6mos the other day and got tired fast! But the bike is sweet. Doesnt turn like my Honda but I like the ergos and suspension better. Still working to get suspension settings dialed in. I will meet you somewhere to ride in the next month or two when I get some more seat time and get back into riding shape. Post some pics of 3P.

[AnotherRedHead]

Yeah I never been to 3 palms before, didnt know what I was missing.

I had enzo do my stuff, I just sent it back yesterday to get freshened and they are gonna stiffen the valving a tad. I also realized Ive got like 150 hours on this 08 motor and havent even lifted the valve cover. No worries though, I pulled her apart today to put in my new JE piston and head I got from Ron Hamp and what do you know, valves were still in spec. Countless hours, I couldnt even tell you how many, riding 2-3 days a week, and I bought this bike last sept. I do change oil religiously with mobil 1 15-50. Same clutch too, I just bought one to put in with the piston/head.

My tired old motor was awesome at 3 palms but I felt I was missing a few HP, I'll be blowing out those 3rd gear berms with ease on the 31st :)

[davbrucas]

Want to meet me at Monster Mtn this weekend?

[AnotherRedHead]

Enticing, however 1st round of the pro circuit series is on sunday at village creek aug 24. Then we are racing 3 palms august 31st.

[abxr1]

There is also a pit bike race there Sat night. 1st round of pbra series.

[Big Thumper]

Nice looking track!

I tore the meniscus in my knee. I'm hoping Monday, he'll let me start some therapy, but I'm not real optimistic it's going to hold, it was a big tear.

[AnotherRedHead]

Dammit man, that sucks. I thought you were supposed to keep you feet on the pegs on a 4 wheeler? hehe

I been riding without knee braces for a while, I need to get some more before my luck runs out

[davbrucas]

I have the asterisk braces and they are relatively comfortable.

[jammeejamm]

i run asterisk as well. i like them the most.

[AnotherRedHead]

I had the old asterisks and didnt like em, i hear the new model is nicer. I was thinking about just splurging for cti's but I may just buy the new cell

[jammeejamm]

i am waiting on my new backings to come in, and they put synthetic lace buttons on the new ones. the rusting lace buttons sucks, and that is my only complaint.

[davbrucas]

Nick, everything else you have is high dollar look at me shit...you might as well get the CTIs! :) The new models Asterisks are comfortable and work just as good. Besides, they are under your gear so nobody can see them anyway.

[Buick355]

When did they start making the "new" Asterisks? I bought my pair back in 05. Hope I'm not missing out.

[AnotherRedHead]

hardy harr ho, I hear the words of a jealous man! lmao I like nice shit, its a sickness dude, trust me. I buy the cheap shit, and then Im stuck wanting what I didnt get...so I learned to just go ahead and buy what I wanted in the first place.

[AnotherRedHead]

These are from pro circuit today. That stepdown quad is awesome fun, you just fall outta the sky....I got 1st in over 25, it was gay though, no competition for some reason. I killed my bike on the start of the first moto, had to kick it and then proceeded to run them all down in 2 laps....gay there were more ppl in over30 at this one

And Graddy is fackin fast....he caught Berry and then roosted him with a lookback for making him work for it. It was classic, awesome battle in the pro moto.

LOL...jealous? Nah...I am sure that my bank account is bigger than yours! :D

[AnotherRedHead]

I hope so....Im poor cause all the cool look at me shit I bought!

[davbrucas]

Your cock wont get any bigger no matter how much bling you buy, Nick! :)

[AnotherRedHead]

If my cock were any bigger, it wouldnt be any fun....

[Big Thumper]

Is there a place that sells those braces cheaper than 600.00? I think that would be a wise investment for me.
