First, a quick shout out, Im glad there were 36 cars that raced the LEGP, with both WORCS at SpeedWorld and ASCC at FireBird racing today the count was good and shows the sport is healthy and growing. If you didnt do it you missed a fun one.
Now, my quick, self serving race report.
Saw the weather, sain no SR1, told Cody take your moms Rhino insted. Signed up UTV and Team MX race.
Turn moms 4 seater into 2 (Thanks to Black Rhino for finding me some of those retrofit doors to make us legal)
Boys borrow a 450 (both boys are 250 riders) & race Team Race.
Friend Kyle takes the start and goes from near last to 20ish out of 60 on first lap, hands off to Code.
Code loses 1 spot on his lap and hands off to Kyle.
Kyle is fast desert racer, kyle is young, kyle is enthusiastic, kyle is fast, kyle over jumps deadmans drop by 15+' and breaks tib fib on landing. In the emergency room they asked what Kyle was allergic to, we said 450's.
Kyle goes to hospital, Cody goes solo in UTV.
Cody starts 2nd to last in group 3 and come through 20ish end of lap 1. By end of lap 3 he comes through in 11th, then never comes back again. He passed 25 cars but got his ass kicked by a hay bail & dnf's.
in the process he set 7th fastest lap out of 36 cars, in a
Rhino. Anyone want it? Its for sale, I want an XP now.....
Tearoffs are your friend.
Notables....
Winner, Funco's Garrett George-fastfast faaaassst fast fast fast fast. Did I mention he was fast?
2nd, our buddy James Hill. At the end of lap 3 he closed the gap on Garrett to within striking distance.. but spun out then flatted.
4th, Blues 4WD ZX powered Teryx thingy finished! and looked good doing it, I was suprised....good job.
Kyle LeDuc did the longets powerslide I think Ive ever seen in a UTV.
Sux for Rusty, hope its an easy fix.
There are so many more good stories but after waiting for Kyle to go into surgery then driving home Im tired......
Again, thanks to Black Rhino for all their support.
Until next time.....
