THE DESCRIPTION SAYS IT ALL.
I HAVE BEEN FLURTING WITH THE IDEA FOR SOMETIME AND HAVE RACED IN SOME LOCAL AND NORTHERN TRACKS WITH MOST OF THE LOCAL COLORADO PROS.
THE IDEA
I DECIDED TO START WITH MY FAVORITE PLATFORM. THE RAPTOR 700 AND SEE HOW FAR I COULD TAKE IT.

thanks for all the support
I am ready. :nod:
:thumbs: well it was a crazy trip down here and it was worth every bit.
Got down here on Wednesday night and got to see them set up the track.
Got out to the track on Thursday and was able to meet up with nic granuland and jason anderson as they were getting ready to teach the atv supermoto school.
Nic saw the bike and asked if I wanted to help with the track and school for some private time on the track.
I jumped on this and was able to get tons of time picking and choosing lines.
I met up with pro rider frank batista who rides professional tt and works races under daryl rath.
He saw me practicing on Thursday and asked if I wanted to team up for a team race against the other pros for a little track time. I teamed up with him against 18 teams and we got 4 th place after both getting flat tires
I will start another thread about the sat and Sunday events
Badass scotty!

Fricken AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
