Yeah, yeah, just going to bring your kids to sweep all the trophies. LOL.

 

[wardy]

na i got my sights set on this one guy "515" who kicked my butt in the barrel race! I seem to stink that race up every year! My kids this year will get a big dose of back of the pack racing! He is in 65 sr this season. Of course they have come up with "new" tricks since the PS2 got bought for christmas.

515! I wonder if that's the same pointy elboed character that nearly knocked me into a tree in the hare scrambles! :)

 

[wardy]

LOL yea I get it was, he was chasing that same dam deer.

did i say that outloud?

My basketball coach in high school sharpened the elbow with Ti precision.

 

[fatherandson]

I found # 515 picking his bike out of the ravine during that first lap of the HS. Was this revenge of motometal??

 

[nikki]

There were three 515's at DW05........ :think:

 

[FiremanCRF450R]

I was one of the 515's, but I was the nice one. I think the guy you are looking for is BSWIFT. Sorry to through you under the bus BSWIFT but I don't want to have anyone after me I crash enough on my own with out any help from anyone else. You need to watch him he baits you in then starts throwing elbows like a NBA player. :nener:

 

[motometal]

fatherandson, yea that was it but I really didn't have to "do" anything to get revenge, other than wait. I did give a bit of a yeeehaaw on the way by though.

 

[fatherandson]

It must have been a chorus of yeeehaaws as I joined in!!

 

[BSWIFT]

Doh!

Crazy: Okie usually has the dates nailed down in the springtime. He has to wait until the various racing organizations have finalized their racing schedules, so we know what dates are available.

As they should! There will be lots of toys to try out while you are there.

A nice pic of Cooperlands jumps in the background. Someone has a pic in the gallery of a step-up and someone else posted that the pic dont do justice as to how steep it is..this appears to be the jump in the background...anybody know..

I have been researching the net looking for more pics of Cooperland when I found this.

Crazy that is not the big step up but is in the corner just before the big step up.

I almost filled my shorts as I was poking around the corner and out of the side of my vision saw a bike come at then jump over me. When I was there the only 2 doing it were brownie (CL owner) and some cowboy named Kenny
here is a pic of the big step up but pics just do not do it justice

BTW I plan to be there this year and should have 2 YZ250fs and possibly a 450 or 250 2 stroke that will need a rider part of the day so you should be able to let your 85 rest a bit

 

[crazy4nitro]

AW Horrible..On the web site that pic blew up real big..the jump I was talking about is in the center of the pic WAY back there.........you cant see it in the small pic that comes up when you click my link......... :bang: :bang:

Sorry
I typed "Cooperland" in the search of Transworldmotocross to get the pic....

[crazy4nitro]

Oldguy,
Very cool I'm sure I will take you up on that,I appreciate that alot. :yeehaw: I plan on hitting up the Katoom reps also.
Riding the 4T's will be intresting,to compare to the 2T's as I'm getting back into motocross after 10 years of absence due to collage/chasing the aviation jobs around the country.It was worth it though..

See you there,
Crazy

I'm a new member here and I was wondering what you have to do in order to go to the dirt week. That sounds like tons of fun and I would love to go. Do you have to sign up or pay an entrance fee or anything? Can we bring as many people as we want?

Later,

Randy

Check out the site at http://www.dirtweek.com. Additionally all the forums relating to past DirtWeeks can be found near the bottom of the main forum page, check out DirtWeeks Past forum.

All you have to do is pay your fees and you are in. It is great fun for sure. Okie will be firming up the dates as soon as the racing organizations have completed their scheduling.

 

[BSWIFT]

The best racing is around the camp fire. Very competitive, the jumps are longer, whoops are bigger, and the holeshots are spectacular!
