When Matt left the starting line with the Streak and went by me, all I could think of was the starship Enterprise when it goes into warp drive!

Now thats funny!

I forgot to add that I have some video from the two stroke mod heat race... it's only about a minute long. I threw a chain and left the track defeated yet again.

Been there done that!

Great stuff Mike. Looks like it was a blast. Wish I could've been there.

Great vid, Nick! I never associated Dukas with Amphibious ATVs before, but the cut from Fantasia works! Thanks for all the work.

Watching bits and pieces when I can at work. Will have to watch the whole thing w/ Dad this weekend, Nice! Seems like no one cared about flying/filming in that location?

All the videos are really cool. It's kinda neat to see "our" machines and inmates assembled at an event that is not exclusively for "us". I'm really gettin' stoked about a Hare Scramble racer build. Can't risk getting banged up in a nasty track collision but I am willing to chance it against trails and a stopwatch. This is some exciting stuff going on here!

[LittleG]

Thank you Nick loved the video.

[George]

Well, I'm glad I get to see what I missed. Thanks guys.

To be honest, the bumping and occasional rollovers aren't really the worst part about racing. Jumping and bouncing in your own machine takes a much harder toll on my body. Rolling over almost always happens on a turn whether you catch a dry spot or get tapped by somebody. It's almost always at a pretty slow speed; I'd wager about 10mph or less. I hit that Beech tree at about 10-15mph during last Fall's Hare Scramble and it wasn't really a big deal. Five laps around the track hitting the table tops hurt a lot more.

Trees don't move! Nuff Said, yet again.

Thanks guys! I agree, rolling over doesn't compare to bouncing around the track for 3 races.

I don't know why the video thumbnail is terrible, I changed it 2 days ago.
