I agree mod. But maybe it's like the saying, tv adds 15 lbs and 5 ft to the trail...lol. But now, those trails are definately wider in most sections. I couldn't belive how many lines they had to choose from with just the big trees. In ol miniota[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img], the brush is so thick it's a one way trail and if a guy gets stuck, you sometimes have no choice but to wait. Our sections get so tight and twisty ballance would say WHAT, 1st gear?? Where is that...aaaaand you're gonna make me slip the clutch to get through! For those that think I'm saying that cause I'm slow...you're wrong! The races are just that tight. At some races, a stock rappy will fit, but a predator won't and will have to find a new path! (HIXTON) cough, cough...mmm dust!

Pudl, I'd almost like to go and try one of those "freeway" races. I wonder how Ballance and crew would do on our courses? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

But I have to say after riding a GNCC race your local track is just not as fun anymore. You would love it.

I was actually drooling over that track. I have only entered one cross country race and it seemed to be gear toward race quads. I ride a Rincon, and that muddy rutted course they ran on TV last night would have been perfect for a 4X4. There were many of those guys stuck in places that would not have slowed a 4X4. I only watched for a minute. Did they run 4X4s?
I will say this to those of you that have not done this... it is harder than it looks. If you are really experienced, you might be fast for the first 30 mintues, and then reality sets in. You arms and hands are pumped. Then, after about an hour, you are almost sick (if you really push to the limit), and after an hour and 1/2, you could stick a fork in me because I was done. I know the key is to pace yourself and stay relaxed. But, it is harder than you think.

Yup, all fomats of machine are welcome. Get involved, join AMA, and go race! You'll have a blast! O.k. well half way through the race you'll be wondering, "Why do I do this?". Then after the race, you'll be soooooo psyched for the next one, you won't be able to wait. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Pudl and I aren't by any means discounting the GNCC courses and talents of the pros. Our district just finally widened our courses a couple of years back.....they're still quite a bit tighter than the GNCC's though.
