Granted I'll be at '03, I really want to enter a smack talk woods race! I should have a '03-04 220R 0r a magic button 300-400 from Kawie. I can't wait to add a new machine to my sig line!

All my best!

Pokie, I am fairly certain that GSR will be racing - she hasn't had much time to get on DRN lately and probably hasn't seen this post.

Pokie,

I e-mailed V-Man. Sally's not sure yet, but I'll get her pysched up for it once we get there! :yeehaw:

Let's see, last year I got to eat the dust of two girls on 80's, one of them was 9 years old! This year I'll get to eat Sarah Zoomer's dust, and she's, what, 6? Sure, why not, it's not like I have any pride left. :confused:

 

[biglou]

I seem to remember a certain young lady pulling the holeshot in the women's mx, though... :)

 

[Okiewan]

If I shave my legs, can I be in this one? So far only 11 ? 12th sounds pretty good to me.

I don't know if Scooter is in or not... get this; she has ridden ONCE since DW 01 :(

Don't feel too left out.
I'll be lucky if I can start my bike since I havne't ridden it since my honeymoon and that was?, Like January....
I'll have a heaping serving of mud pie please! :eek:

 

[firecracker22]

Ok, I got spanked last night by a 9-year-old girl on a KX 65. Talk about no pride. I'm racing though! Why not!

 

[gospeedracer]

Don't let me forget not to let you guys get away without getting some pictures of the women of DRN. I snapped a shot at 00 Spodefest and there were only 6 of us. Our numbers are growing. :)

[Pokie]

last year we missed our chance during the Ladies Race.... everybody busy watching the action but not thinking of taking a picture or video...
we shall not repeat this omission...

 

[IrishEKU]

GSR,
Great pic! Hope to see many more from this years event!

Wish this starving college student could make it.

Pokie I am sure if Kim Westergaard is cleared to ride she will race. Last I talked to her she was hoping the knee surgery will be all healed up by then

Not an acceptable excuse- If she thinks back to DW01 it was she and Speedy that conned Trudy into going out for a ride on the GP track. Once there they remembered that the womens race was just getting ready to start. Seems Trudy had what a grand total of 2 hours riding ever and it was her first time on a track of any kind. BTW Trudy loved it and still talks about how Pokie was so great :thumb: about showing her the track but he forgot to mention -When going downhill let up on the throttle.
Any women that have never raced (and may never again) do not miss this chance to go out and have fun :yeehaw:

 

[Pokie]

...am sure I told Trudy to be sure to let up on the throttle when the flag drops in front of her...
ok, will reserve Kim Westergaard a slot in the starting gates..
Oldguy...we just gotta come up with a new twist to challenge the ladies...

 

[gospeedracer]

Forgot my 2 bits.

b. what terrain preferred?
b.2...........MX/Woods combo - doesn't really matter to me.

c. length of race?
c.2..........15 minutes - Do I hear 10 minutes? ;) for me it would have to depend on where the race is. I can go longer if it's more wide open (like the GP at Casey) but if it's strickly MX I may not make it very long. :confused:

d. format:
d.1..........xlaps - the "last one standing/riding wins" last year about killed me!

e) classes: A and B... by ability/experience - doesn't matter to me. I have no idea where I fall.

Where is the race going to be? Or is it just something we'll have to determine when we get there and scout out the place?

 

[Pokie]

We'll have to scout for the woods part and see how we can combine it with MX..... we may have to run two separate races if time allows: one "experienced" one for spodes... we'll have a huddle on Monday and decide..

 

[gospeedracer]

Okie, dokie, Pokie. :) See ya Monday!

 

[firecracker22]

What is the MX track like? Lots of jumps? Tight, technical? Wide open?

 

[gospeedracer]

FC, take a look in Thumps photo album. There are several pictures of the track in there.

 

[biglou]

There is the "kids" track, which is a hoot no matter what size bike, and the main track, which is huge, very wide, with all tabletops. No real tight corners that I can remember.

 

[firecracker22]

I'm more worried about big jumps than I am corners. I LIKE corners. Jumps kick my butt though. I looked at the pictures, it looks pretty cool!
