I was racing and the bike ran fine in practice. Then i get to the gate go to fire it up and it wont start. We finally push start it and it starts. The first lap i went into a turn and it just bogged down so i shifted down to first gear and it went got into the high rpm's again. It kept boggin the whole race tho. Then wen i got off the track i let off the throttle and it just died. Also it was backfiring a lot during the race. I got and discovered the fuel mixture was gone. Do you think that ewas the only problem or do you think the valves may need adjustment now too?

It's common for the fuel screw to fall out if you adjust it past about 2 turns. Replace the fuel screw the spring the washer and the o-ring and you should be fine, assuming the bike was fine before it fell out.
