"Feel Good" counts for something but all you youngsters still have to survive to the "Older Than Dirt" stage. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Bing now that's funny rite there for sure. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Long range forecast for next Saturday is high 70's with a chance of rain. Maybe the trails won't be so dusty after all.

Spent the morning doing PM work on my ratty old camper pickup. Alternator was coming up a little low on voltage so replaced it and the regulator. Found one battery isolator that was showing reverse current thru one diode. Finally found a replacement at NAPA. Couple of battery bolts and cleaning of terminals and all the low voltage problems went away. It's amazing what an extra volt or so will do to a rig. Tomorrow I start on the quad, the winch control circuit has decided to quit working. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img] Probably going to need it next weekend to drag myself out of ditch or two. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] May even have to drag the quad out as well.

Well, we made it home from Hannegan, and the NW Quad Nationals!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Wow, what a difference a week makes, both good, and bad.

Brandon did awesome in his practice session, no one passed him and he did some passing too! No he was not the last one out of the gate [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] We had to wait for the last heat race for him. 9 90cc machine in the "C" class. He left the gate, wheels up and in 3rd place to the first turn. He stayed there for 3 laps until the whoop section and he got passed. He kept pressure on hard, outjumping the child in front of him. He was going for the pass again when he went really big over a tabletop. He landed very nose heavy and went for a spooky ride. The only gear that survived fully intact was goggles and boots. everything else is junk, even the helmet he got yesterday is junk. What is now junk is okay with me. My son has some scratches on his right arm, and ribs where the bike won that battle.

I want to give our buddy QUAD 4 FUN a big shout. He is the man when someone went down today. He darn near beat me to my son, with his daughter on the track at the same time. Thank you Sean! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

That is a very well run program. If you want to try a quad motocross race, run the NW Quad NAtty's.

redRod, here is the link to the Metal Werks in Marysville. You want to ask for Mike Hobeck, he is the owner of the place. He can weld any and everything. He used to weld the cranks in Big D's buddies nitro bike. Mike is the man! give him a call. He will do a A+ job. The best as far as I'm concerned, as are alot of folks.

Karl and Mike, thanks for the wishes on little man. He has never before said he "was done" after a wreck. He is usually wanting to get back on the bike, not so today. All the times he got back on and ran hard, and ran well. Today was an eye opener. He went big, and hard, and that is fine he was done for the day.

His front bumper and steering stem show how hard he went over.


Watching the drag races on tv, DAMN IT'S HOT DOWN THERE...104 no way!
