Friday night me and a group of quadders went to the Kennedale drag stip for a night of bragging rights. Kennedale requires the full meal deal to run. I loaded the quad, helment,boots,pants,jersey and gloves and headed to the track. Upon ariving we unloaded and i changed clothes. After i was all Decked out i got on the quad and relized i could not shift because of the way i have the lever set. I got off teh quad and trip over my boots. lol Made a few adjustments and off i went. The light turned green and i watched raptorridertx take off, i decided i would follow. I pull up beside him and shift to 2nnd and passed him. Pulled in the clutch and went to 3 and notheing happened, tried again, nothing. My foot was stuck under the lever. lol Race over. I sneak off one boot and put a shoe on the shifting foot and try again. With a helmet on my quad is not very loud. I am getting better at this. A few more runs and the night is over. Saturday morning i get up and my feet are sore along with my neck. This saftey stuff was hard on me. Maybe i will just be the flagman in the future. lol

How was your week end??

 

14mins, I have exactly the same problem with MX boots. Although I wear them most of the time during hard riding for safety reasons, they just dont't seem to work for me (shifting from gear to gear takes about 5 seconds lol[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]).

 

14mins, you need to wear those fancy boots more than once to get them broke in. Try hiking around your track and climb the dirt hills at the dirt pit for a few days to get them broke in. Bring more than a pair of pliers on the next trip too.

 

You'll get used to them. Just keep wearing them because you never know when you are going to need them. Plus , yours look sooo cooool and match your fast pants!!

 

rrc- WHAT SIZE SHOE DO YOU WEAR? Looking for a size 11 to break in the boots.

Rodsquad- If i am not fast, i might as well look good.

 

Fast pants?!?!
I had a girlfriend with fast pants, They were held together with velcro so I could take them off fast!!! HAHAHAHAHA!! LOL!!

 

Moose, you lucky dude. My wife still wears a chasity belt to bed!

 

That's why I'm still single!!

The wedding ring comes with the belt!!

 

14mins so who holds the bragging rights for the week?!?!?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Well I hope 14 mins beat me lol. He did forget to mention that I beat him by the full track once lol.I thought he was right on me then i look back and he is just leaving the starting line. If he could get his launches down he would have been beating me a lot worse than he was. I've gotten pretty good at the launches, had a .501 reaction time one run. Needless to say the 686 is fast. I think the heavy leather jacket I had and the fact i was wearing both of my boots slowed me down! lol
