rock two.

rock two was at the same venue, but a different course. from the maps i thought it would be the harder of the two for me, but after racing it i think it actually suited me better.
crazy.

sundays race format was as follows:
holeshot to a tight 180, long straight away, a little shinanagins to a obscene run up (the same hill we went down on saturday), long fast decent, triple barriers, more straights, another triple, thru a pitch black barn, thru the sand pit, and around to the start/finish.




neither me or sr had any teammates, so we decided to kit up as teamates special for the event in the only matching kits we could find.


the race was pretty awesome, and fast. i tried to take it easy on the run up, and push it everywhere else. that seemed to work well for me.



super rookie blew his tire and made a big scene, (no suprise).


little guy was rocking with the front guys (no suprise), until he was taken out, but he still finished a strong 13th.


karla was killing it in the womens elite race, and was right up with the big favorites until the girl in front of her went down a created a gap that never got closed. karla finished an awesome 7th place in a stacked field. well in the money both days.
good enough to cover her speeding ticket from the drive down!

elite race recap and photos, and lots more to come!
