Re: who all raced MOTO?
I know exactly what you mean My cuz rides a 4 stroke and just ******* around on our practice track i cant manage to land jumps right or anything. But im sure would feel normal after i got used to it. I like geting to use my clutch alot though!

Re: who all raced MOTO?
i raced . i loved every minute of it . i think in my own opion that hitting a good triple is more of rush and doing cicles is more of a feeling of self accomplishment, this is for me any ways . i just loved waking up every sunday morning and riding to the races and setting up and getting ready. i have few races ill never forget. oh and siting on the line with a full gate watching that pin <holeds the gate up>and waiting for it to drop is awsome too. god damn it i miss it . oh and the smell of the u4 and high octane gases. the sounds of the old days when two stroke on a hole shot was the best sound ever. my bad i could go on for ever

all this talk is just bringing back memmories. some good, some bad.lol. the feeling of being lined up on a full gate is somewhat indescribable. its something you only know if you have been there. there is anxiety, focus, adrenaline, etc. its quite posibly one of the best things on earth. especially if it all results in a hole shot with 40+ bikes behind you! and waking up at 5am to be at the track for sign ups at 7am. the smell of two strokes warming up, the sight of the tractor churning up the dirt before the first practice sesh of the morning goes out. the breakfast burritos cooking up. man..............i just might have to enter a race again. it wont be the same though. nothing can compare to the days of growing up a motocross kid.

Re: who all raced MOTO?
thanks, its got the basic swapped stuff on it like bars, sprokets, etc. It has the suspension worked but mostly stock motor. still keeps up just fine with the noise makers...
LOVE my smoker!!! so much fun to ride. I raced B from 1996-1999, then A for a season, then got my AMApro licence... fell off racing in 2001 though... raced a few times since in the B class where im perfectly happy now haha... they let me go from A to B cause i didnt ride for a few years and still only ride maybe once or twice a year
