I know you guys are looking for video right now but just to let you know ATV Magazine TV will air the race and the 12-hours will also be the premier program for a new ATV program called ATV Sport TV. It's an honor that they are using the 12-Hours as their first show. The biggest thing I regret is not getting to meet all of you - but once the gun went off I was busy trying to keep all of you racers happy, unfortunately you don't have time to much else but I sure would like to try some of that chili next year though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Hey PW when do I get my engine back????

Anyone having problems viewing my clips can PM me after you make sure you download and install the DIVX codec first. Look back at my posts for a link to the codec. That is the number one reason for problems. You MUST do that.

PW Good job on the race. Sounds like if you hadn't had a few mishaps, you would have been right there at the end.

Bartlett; 4 min axle change, that's got to be a record. I've seen them changed between pull classes, I was amazed at that, but 4 mins. wow..

Sounds like it was a first class race. you guys should be proud!

Oldmanwheeler, I hope you and PW get the credit you deserve, for helping put on such an event>>>good job.

PW, as a concerned 2003 12 Hours of ATV America team member, who is next year's team going to be? I had a blast this year and I fear it would be hard to be a tow vehicle for 2004's race. If you have any ideas, please let me know. If you let me ride again, I will try even harder not to roll your machine. NERVOUSLY WAITING! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Thanks for letting us be part of such a cool experience this year!! Your hard work really paid off and I had the time of my life last weekend. It was fun to ride such a sweet machine. Look forward to riding with you soon!

That's right, we wouldn't have even been there if not for one hard-hitting 700cc engine from OldManWheeler. Thanks for all you did too! I was planning on getting out of racing until the 12 hour, now I need to find more races to hit!

DWB

In the pic of you pulling, it looks like your front tires aren't spinning, was this a 2 wheel class??

It must have been. The weight bags aren't on either. So, it wasn't my unlimited pull.

I sent DWB some more pics. today... that was his 2 WD class pull...

SHOTGUN... note the pics of the weight sled... I think they adjusted the chain length to keep people from over pulling... I'd like a copy of the pull rules you guys use... I've got the contact info from the people that put on the pull in Fort Dodge, & I know of 2 groups of people that intend on making sleds over the winter, so any sled suggestions & or plans you may have would be great as well... most of the small town, summer festivals around here, have been looking to add an ATV event, & I personnally like the mud bog races & pulls, so I'll be offering my services to several communities next summer
