I'll be there, but running supermoto Sunday and maybe a dirtbike team race Sat(not sure abt wanting to do that-haven't rode it in awhile plus IDK if we ever got a team together haha). It rained 1 1/2 inches here in Tulsa today btw. Still getting quad together, but it's piddly stuff like cleaning air filter(did that tonight-it's drying now), oil change to do, put on and double check all lug nuts and throw the plastic and fuel tank on. No gopro vids cuz I don't own one!

That super moto looks fun. I know the two stroke will kick ass on it. Keep it low and just know the first turn (bus stop) take it to the outside and come in. The XC race has this turn in it and I took it wrong.

I went, I raced, I got my redemption, I got 4th out of 28, I turned second for second lap times compared to my old TRX450R, I packed up and came home, it was a long 23 hour straight day for me. It was a great race this year, 26 quads and 2 trikes in the Beginner open class, 1 trike was a 2014 ATC450R extremely nasty trike never seen one that fast in my life and handle that good, another was an 85 or 86 ATC250R and my 1989 TRX250R, other than that it was a 450 fest. Sorry no video my go pro was set to low on my helmet and was covered in mud by the 3 minute mark anyways. All I can say is I highly recommend you make a trip out there some time.

Sounds like my buddies out of arkansas on that 450. It is Definitely a nice riding trike. Very heavy though.

Congratulations on your run.

Steve the trike was out of Arkansas and it was dang near untouchable on the pavement sections I the brief bit of video I have you see it just up and walk a way from my R.

Nice racing! I'm sure someone has video already up on YouTube that might show some of the R family.

There's a couple up. One clip of a quad team race. Almost a whole lap of video.

I got 8th out of 13 in AM quad supermoto. Was able to get second to the 1st turn and run around in 2nd in my heat(I faded back to 3rd at the end), but the heats were only 4 or 5 quads per heat(the heat before me only had 2 quads in it(WTF?

?). Not to bad for a little oem jug that's under 265cc I guess. It was hurry up and wait(for over 2 hours-it seems the bike guys cried about atv's/utv's kicking to much dirt onto the track) to finally get to race, then pretty rushed from the heat to the main. You could tell that some of us older guys weren't to happy abt it(nobody said anything, but you could tell by by both the way I felt and by seeing the looks on some of the other's faces-we were tired and would have liked just a little bit more time). Had abt 30 mins rest between heat and main to rest BTW. Was happy to have finished safely and for my little girl to get to see me race. At 43, I'm not getting any younger so IDK if/when I'll race supermoto again(it felt like we were the bottom of the barrel, 3rd[not even 2nd] class citizens, etc). I see more XC racing prob happening, but most likely on a bike honestly(and STRICTLY for fun). Don't get me wrong tho, it WAS fun.
