Title: TrackAddix weekend at Mid-America
Post by: Protein Filled on April 12, 2005, 06:19:30 AM

I would like to say thank to Dean at trackAddix, all the guys at Lithium Motorsports for all the help (Ryan did an awesome job helping me set up my new suspension!) and Mike Casey with motovid for a great weekend at MAM. Seemed to me like the event ran great and it was real good to see everyone again and get the season started.

I spent most of the weekend filming new riders for Motovid. Check out this crash sequence where the guys in front highsided and I barely missed him! His bike actually hits my leg. Way too close for comfort!!! Thanks to Jonah at Momentum Photo for the pictures:

Good riding, Edgar! I'm glad you didn't go down, too.

Sorry we missed you last weekend. Hopefully this weekend will work out. Although Stumpy can always bring this to RA and still do ok...

You probably wouldn't like that, though!

What kind of bike is that? A Sledgehammer?

Dang Stumpy! You got shocks, pegs... lucky! You ever take it off any sweet jumps?

That crash sequence is too cool Edgar... Looks like you did a little patented Rossi move with the leg here:

Then looking at the sequence, it looks like you missed running him over to begin with, so you took another aim and went after him again!

Glad you made it through with likely some rubber marks on your leathers/bike/underwear.

Nah, some new rider who bought Steve Skoog's bike from last year... I first thought it was Dwayne's bike as well.

Well, it was either running him over or have the bike hit me... I figured he was softer than the bike! ;D ;D ;D

I have to thank Dean too. I was doing some set up work for someone, and I think we made some good progress.

Should be doing more work within the Track Addix program this year....once I get my new job sorted... ;D
