Message: [QUOTE="gospeedracer, post: 454199, member: 17307"] LOL! :) I had a total blast too. I don’t know why I get so worked up every year only to end up having a great time. I’d never started out of a gate before and was kind of kicking myself later that I didn’t follow some of the other girls’ lead and fill in/pack down the rut right in front of my gate. I bobbled a little when I hit mine out of the gate. If it hadn’t been for wrench I might have really made a mess of things at the gate. He gave me some first-timer tips for getting off the start line. I think taking it easy and rolling out of it before hitting the gas was a good idea for me, otherwise I might have accidentally wheelied out of there which is what I was most worried about. That track is a lot of fun. At the pace I go, it feels like a roller coaster ride. At every table-top jump I would let out a “whooo hooo”! That uphill rhythm section after the step-up is a blast. I cannot afford to get hurt riding above my head right now, so after I had some trouble keeping my front end down in that section, I tried to just chill. It was awesome to see so many women on the line. Last I had looked not many where signed up and then I show up and Wow! Our numbers grow every year! :) [/QUOTE]
