Hey all,

I wen't to the local track with my m8 today because he can't race because he has two fractured wrists and It was the 1st time I had spent a whol day at the mx track, I usto race go-karts next door to the mx tract for 7years but I never once went to the mx track, just thinking that it would be a GREAT! idea to have a bit of a fmx compition at the local race meets?!!! Just like the SX nationals or the SX masters? So we can get a bit of exposure and get some more people to the local race meet. Im just posting this to see if it is worth taking further?What do you's think?

Far out there are some sick riders there! WHOA! there was this guy in the lead on a cr125 04, that was doing BUBBA SCRUBS, apparintly my m8 said it were you hit the back break before you go of the jump to keep the bike nice and low, James "bubba" Stuart origional! And you should of seen his brother in the 250cc class!! The starts are so good to watch and the 1st corner is asways a blast. And it was so so so so so wet! and muddy! I also watched the 50cc hahaha they hoon! One rider went flat stick and launched right off the burm and got some serous wip lash in his head. And otheres were over-jumping and comming short, any way here are a few shots of what was a mad ass day.

Nope, sure isn't worth taking it any further, cause if it was at race meets it would then have to be an MA sactioned event and only licenced freestyler's can ride them, and to get the licence you have to do a riding test with a Freestyle accredited tester and bla bla bla... Then apparently you have to ride 5 MA events with gaps under 50 foot before you can do proper ones, if I read the rule book correctly... So I'd say the only way you could do it would be if the race club was willing to pay pros to come do a demo or put up prize money for a comp, which I doubt they would be. Sucks hey.

Ah Fairburn... Now they were the days.. Don't waste your time MA will want to get involved as it's a race day and then it's going to be a political nightmare.
