August 16th, North Carolina State Championship was packed with over 300 bikes.
Super Mini class started off not very well, wrecked on third lap with a hard head hit so last place first moto. Did not run second moto due to head hurting.
However I did run the 150 unlimited class also for the State Championship. Placed fourth in first moto and third in second moto so my overall was 3rd place in the state.
Not to bad for a night starting off bad but fought thru the pain to finish.

The next couple months in the Carolina's are not the best for training/seat time so to keep sharp and focused I am starting to race go karts inside.
Went on Saturday and got certified to race the big engine karts. Turned a 47.2 lap avg. Track record is 44.00 by an adult. My dads best is 49 range. Guess he should not challenge me. HA

Training everyday the weather allows preparing for the Spring racing series' to start.
Finally hit the 90 foot table top yesterday at Clutch Creek. Oh the feeling of flying is so cool and calm.
Now to master the tricky double triple that almost got me yesterday. I will win but for the day it got my attention.

Jul 12 2013
The 85 is gone. Added another 150 r to the stable
Training has really stepped up with the summer hitting and races starts back this weekend after a month off
Apr 7 2013
Got a YZ 85 added to the stable last week. Still training on the 150 R. Gonna start the Ultra Series in the summer on the 85 so I can race my age brackett without moving up to 12-16 year olds.
Last race was rained out due to storms so next Saturday we start back. Finally
Mar 9 2013
Got the usual holeshot on first race but First race was closer than I wanted. it was me in first but the second place bike would catch me in the corners only my horsepower would pull away on straights and jumps.
Second race was not my best start. I got the hole shot by a bike length only to lose in second corner. Then the fourth corner lost second place. Fought to get it back by 3rd lap but tried to cut him off and front end washed out. Took the skin off of arm elbow to wrist but held on to keep third and another podium.
Crazy thing was after races were completed i went back on track to work on corners and on the first lap of practice my bike broke down. Think a jet got clogged. So glad it waited until the end of race to clog.

The weekend started great. Bike was running perfect, weather was cold but ok for racing.
First race got a big hole shot, started getting further ahead to by the third lap had a quarter lap lead. Then my mind wandered and I went into second turn too hard and washed out. Bike wouldn't start(just my luck) until the fifth place bike passed me. Got going and got back to fourth by the end, if only two more laps i would have caught the leader.
Second race was the same. Holeshot except this time no mind wander.
Never lost the lead but was a little closer this time but first place is first place either by inches or feet.
Practice this week will be to get the bike from its side to running position faster.

This weekend started off not my normal. First race got caught in the pack and three bikes crashed in front of me blocking the track. I got back to sixth.
Second race was much better, got the hole shot and never looked back. 100 yard lead at the finish for first place.
Went to Zoo City on Sunday. Wow what a track. Tested and trained until dark almost. Great track. Gonna do their Spring race series. On both bikes.
Update on the FMF pipe. The bike had much better response out of the corners and the sound was the big disussion in the pits. Sound was a deep well tuned sound.
Thanks FMF
Jan 8 2013
Trained 4 hours and practiced 4 hours on the 5th and 4 hours on the 6th preparing for the race series starting the 12th.
Lap times on the 6th were about 1.20 seconds faster than ever before.
New FMF pipe due in today so in hopes of more power and with the rejetting for 100% Vp race fuel.
Was using 50/50 ratio but need a little more power out of corners.
Weather forecast is 71 degrees and sun. Perfect race day weather.
