Default sand drags la.

I don't post often, but since I am the first Fort Worth based Craycraft Boys to get back, I thought I would give my 2 cents worth. I talked to the owner Saturday night and they had logged in 676 member sheets (you had to join to ride). For anyone who couldn't make it, you don't know what you missed. For someone who is just really getting into the sport of ATV drag racing, it was amazing to see money (I mean speed) at work. I saw the back of Finish Line Racings trailer and it said "Speed Costs...How Fast Do You Want To Go?" My answer is my bonus arrives next month.
There was some obscenely fast quads. I could not run with 99% of the bikes on the track with my little stock Banshee, but it was fun anyway. The drag racing was the main attraction, but there is also trails and mud holes for those Utility Quad riders. I saw several crowds throughout the day around ponds to watch some of the biggest quads I have ever seen splash around in the mud and the muck.
Everyone from Fort Worth is already discussing a return trip. Don't know when it will happen, but it will happen.
----Just a friendly reminder that the Aledo Summer Nationals will be here before you know it so maybe some of you guys that were in Louisiana this weekend will make it to Texas this summer.
PS-for those of you who have video, please keep it coming. Those images help in remembering one memorable weekend.

No lights,the white YFZ's were stock frame bikes.One of them had Marvin Shaw shocks and the other was running stock shocks.I could only imagine if they were on light weight drag frames.It was a very good weekend.
