HEY GUYS...

I ENTERED A PAUL COONS EXTREME CROSS COUNTRY RACE IN WEST VIRGINIA. MY HOME STATE... I WAS IN THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE UNLIMITED CLASS. THIS WAS MY FIRST RACE BY THE WAY. ANYWAYS THE TRACK IS ABOUT SIX MILES LONG THROUGH THE WOODS...VERY TIGHT WITH HUGE HILL CLIMBS. ANYWAYS THE RACE IS TWO HOURS LONG AND WHERE EVER YOU STAND AT THAT TIME IS WHERE YOU STAND. THERE WERE 82 GUYS TOTAL IN ALL OF THE CLASSES....YOU OUR STARTED WITH YOU GROUP ONE GROUP AFTER ANOTHER SO YOU ARE ALL RACING AT THE SAME TIME. WELL THE GRIZZLY TOUR THE TRACK UP... I FINISHED FIRST IN CLASS AND 23 IN OVER ALL STANDINGS NOT BAD WHEN I WAS RACING BUILT 250RS RAPTERS, EX'S, AND BANSHEES. ANYWAYS IT WAS GREAT. THE ONLY MODS I MADE TO THE GRIZ WERE I SWITCHED TO 25 INCH MAXXIS SUR TRAKS ALL THE WAY AROUND ADDED RENTHAL BARS, TOOK THE RACKS OFF, A HIGH LIFTER COOLANT GUAGE, AND ADJUSTED THE SHOCKS TO THE STIFFEST SETTING. IT WAS AMAZING AFTER THE RACE PEOPLE IN THE CROWD COULDN'T BELIEVE I WAS ACTUALLY CONTENDING ON A 600+ POUND BIKE. I AM TELLING YOU THIS NOT B/C I AM BRAGGING BUT JUST TO LET YOU KNOW WHAT THE GRIZ IS CAPABLE OF. ANYWAYS I AM RACING IN A GNCC RACE IN A FEW WEEKS AT A PLACE CALLED MT MORRIS. HEY BY THE WAY IF ANYONE KNOWS OF ANY AFTER MARKET REAR BUMPERS LET ME KNOW I NEED ONE.
