Is it possible to race conservative enough to not get hurt but still get points? Race or not?


Really? You show up, you race hard, and the chips fall where they may. Not sure why this is even a question.

Ya Paul us small business guys have it made. I bought my first camping trailer at 47 years old. A used one for $14,000. We bought one bike in 2009 and still owe on it. Ya life as a small business owner is the life of a King. Working 70 hours a week is my life long dream for when I turned 50.

At least I get to work for the nicest people on the planet. Dirt bikers!

We have been good...hat'en the winter. Worse one in about 3 decades over here. Sitting on about 13 inches of snow right now. Last rode my bike in November sometime....

We are trying to get together another trip to Horn Feb 19-21st. We should know more soon.

How about you? Race/Riding? Foot ok?

Ya Mr. Open Class. What have you been doing?
Did you get that track built on Mercer Island yet. I heard you had a few Zoning issues.

Ted are you guys still going to run a +40 B class this year? It's bad enough to get smoked by Grim, Holt etc. but now you have Dan Moore in the mix also.

Sounds about same here Vetmx808, November I mean. That Crater dudes had my bike and it's parts ever since - doing his Europe/US thingy. Me, I've got a sandwich to chew on and live European tv (http://www.cpm24.tv/) and love'n both. Should have a bike back soon enough just not sure it can handle my new found poundage.

At the Horn PRO races whats the difference between 40+ int and lengend since they are raced together and counted same as a group as how they finish in order of the race as i have seen posted on results by the tower?

They have never run a seperate intermediate class. Legends has always been A/B combined scoring. This year they are running seperate A and B classes so us slow guys don't get out butts kicked so bad.
