Sweet! This is gonna be the event of the year. We'll have to set up a big old campsite complete with a grill or two, firepit, etc.

haha ya, just to think back to 01 or whatever year it was up at jolly rogers...I slept in the back of my van along with a buddy in sleeping bags and we were woken up throughout the night by people partying...at one point I woke up cuz it was SUPER hot...I lean up and there is a fire outside my back bumper like 6ft high and a pitbike in the fire. Then we got woken up again from shaking and it was cuz a guy was getting thrown onto my van while a guy was choking him saying "I'll put your head through this F'in window"...I rolled the window down and was like NO DUDE DON'T BREAK MY SHIT and the guy beating his ass was all nice and like "ok sorry dude didn't know you were in there sleeping"

There is a 100% chance of me being long gone before anyting like this Happens.

Looks like fun. Dirt bike? Check. Never been on a track? Check. Enjoy doing dumb shit and getting hurt? Check. Oh, what the hell, why not?

same here!

[seth399]

hehe to be honest I don't see the southwick venue letting things happen like in NH back in the day there...we'll see I guess. Chances are I will take off saturday as well as I'm not gonna do the practice day

Any suggestions on a 2nd class to register in for a hack rider on an 02 KX125 that's never even been on a MX track? Never ever is a no brainer, but they want me to pick a second. Jobless 25+? Keepin it real? They're both open, which makes me thing I have no business there. Ladies? Don't think I look quite that feminine.

ya I'd probably suggest the 25+ or the keepin it real. the 2stroke is open class but I'm not sure sure how many fast guys still have 2strokes laying around so its not like it'll be full of experts (I hope anyway aha).

Dude's I'm entering Novice / C class. This ain't like Roadracing, Novice MX ain't no joke. Seth raced all as a kid and battled to get 5th in C when he did the race back in 2001. Wasn't like it was a cakewalk.

That was the brand-freakin-new XR50! Some dude tried to ride it through the fire pit and got launched off by a POS bike that was already burnt in the pit. I also kind of remember the fight. Good times!

I was all cocked up on my '84 Z50. Lucky I didn't kill myself.

25+ is open class too. Seems my only option for a second class is going to be an open class of some sort, so it comes down to which of the two will be slower. I like your thinking on the 2 stroke open, plus then I can try to chase 6 around on his CR250... not that I'll be able to keep up.

Never Ever and Keepin It Real it is. Thanks.

Marco is cool shit. As long as his stuff doesn't get destroyed he lets you do pretty much what you want. Southwick isn't quite as accepting of Stimilon-style behavior. Oh well, we'll have one good year there, then it's on to another track for next year!

From what I'm hearing, a LOT of experts/pros are taking about getting 2-strokes for NESC this year. Could be some fast riders in that class.

Damnit! Jobless 25+ then? I have a fairly certain feeling I'm going to be out of place anywhere I go besides never ever, and possibly even there.

No shit. I ened up 13th in the 250 Hack. There were some fast guys for novices. It's been a few years since I started my bike. This should be fun.

Okay I just registered for Novice 30C and Never Ever + Sunday Practice. This is the weekend after the Loudon Classic, it's going to fucking RULE!!

I've never done a MX race before, so this should be fun. I think some serious training at the Wood Lot is in order.

[BLACK SQUIRREL]

My Boy Craig is riding with us Never Ever and OldC Novice. He is scary on a Dirtbike Wide open and not afraid of the ground at all.

Its starting look like I will know everyone in Never ever and most people in Novice Old C

["Dangerous" Dan K]

Lookin at some of you guys that are signed up for never ever... I'm fucked. hard.

["Dangerous" Dan K]

AMA required for this?

["Dangerous" Dan K]

Can I run a 125 in the 250 hack class? Just trying to figure out where I'm gonna get hurt the least, and I really don't think I have any business in an open class.

[BMFR6]

this is going to be a good time! seems like NESR is going to make up the grid for never ever and 30+C!


i'm assuming 2 stroke 250's are okay in 30+C?

dude, relax, seriously. you're post whoring is quickly growing annoying.

Yes, 125's run in the 250 class. I have to run my CR250 in the 450 class.
