[QUOTE="dirtbike_freak, post: 1180033, member: 74175"] Heres chapter 3 ! Chapter 3 For most of the van ride to LA, Mark spent playing video games, sleeping and reading motocross magazines. When they drove up at the hotel Matt shook Mark awake. "Are we there?" Mark asked sleepily "Yep" Jordan said "We've already got the rooms booked." "Do we get our own rooms?" Kasey asked hopefully. "We booked a room with three beds in it. You boys will sleep in that." Jordan said. "Dibs on sleeping by my self" Kasey said "Me too" Matt said. Mark looked at keenan. "you dont wet the bed anymore do you?" Mark said nervously "Yeah right. Im 9 years old. 9 year olds dont wet the bed" Kennan said "What a dumb question" My brother still does sometimes" Mark laughed. They checked in at the front qounter and then took their sutcases up to the room. Sure enought there was only three beds. Mark Threw his Sutecase on one. "Whens dinner?" Asked Matt. "soon I hope" Mark said. "I could use some pizza" "Same here" Kasey said. After they found jordan, he agreed they could go to a pizza parlor. After they had eaten and were walking out of the pizza place Mark saw a dirtbike shop. "Lets go over to that bike shop" Mark told the others. They walked over there and walked in. "Whoa! Theres the new CRF150R!" Mark exclaimed " I just read an article about that bike today. He ran over and sat on it. "This thing is awesome" "GET OFF OF THERE YOU KID" A man shouted. Mark hurriedly jumped off. "Why?" Keenan asked. " Because I don't like naughty little boys tipping over my motorcycles and then who has to pick them up? Me!" The Manager said grumpily. "I've ridden a Dirt Bike before, it's not like I thought this was a playground." Mark snapped. "Oh yes I'm sure you're friend let you ride one once, but that doesn't make you and expert about them." Mark opened his mouth to retort but Jordan put his hand on his shoulder And said "Come on Mark lets go back to the van" The next morning when mark woke up he saw everyones bed empty. He got dressed and walked down to the hotel restauraunt, where he saw the team sitting eating. Mark went over and sat down. "You're finally awake." Kennan said " I like to sleep in" Mark said. A waitress walked up and asked him what he would like to eat. He ordered Eggs and ham. "What are we doing today?" Mark asked Jordan who was reading the newspaper. "I thought that we would go down to a track to practice at." Jordan said. "The tracks that that the races are at?" Matt asked. "No theyre not open till the race day" Jordan answered, Folding up the newspaper. When they Got to the track they unloaded their bikes. There were some other kids at the track looking at The TPA semi, wondering if it was really the TPA racing team. Mark put his bike on a stand. Then he went to get his gear on. He took his first couple laps around the track pretty slow. He could see the other kids laughing at him seeing how slow he was riding after he had just unloaded from a TPA Racing Team semi. On his third lap he sped up. The tracks was A safe but fun track with huge table tops and huge whoops. The kids stopped laughing as Mark launched Across a huge tripple that half of the 250 guys weren't doing. Mark kept riding for around 15 minutes then went to get a drink. A boy wering blue riding gear walked up to Mark. "Are you like sponsored By TPA Racing?" The boy asked. "Uhh yea" Mark said. "Well you're not very good." The boy said "I saw you unloading from the TPA Racing truck and thought you would be really fast, but I could really whip you in a race easily" Mark was surprised by how rude the boy was. "You could Beat me huh? Are you racing The USMXN Series?" Mark said back to the rude kid. "Duh! With my talent it would be a waste not to" Mark snorted. "Okay then. We'll find out who's better day after tommorow then." Mark told him. Mark put his helmet on, pulled his bike of the stand and started it up. He saw the rude kid do the same and say that his name on his number plates. His name was Blake Gopy. 'What kind of a lasty name is Gopy?' Thought Mark. For the rest of the day jordan held his pit board showing the team their lap times as the came across the finish line jump. Marks lap times steadily improved. The team spent The first half of the next day in the gym, then went out and cruised around town looking at the shops. Mark was starting to get nervouse as he thought of the next day when he would race. Mark bought himself a couple of cd's, a new hat and a cool watch in town the day before the race to get his mind off the following day. The TPA team loaded in the van the next morning at 5:30 A.M. Mark and Matt seemed to be the only one nervouse. Matt because it was his first year racing A class. And Mark because he didn't want Blake Gopy to beat him. After the team unloaded there bikes and put up the awning they went to the riders meeting. 85 practice was second. During practice Mark glimsped Blake Gopy. He was looking pretty fast. The gate dropped in Heat 1 of 85A. Mark was 2 gates away from Blake gopy. Mark saw blake moving over on him! He tried to cut mark off but instead hit him! Mark fell! Muttering a few well chosen words that his mom would not have aproved of, mark got up. He managed to finish 1 spot behind a qualifying spot. He would hae to go to the LCQ! Both Matt and Kasey one their heat races and Keenan finished second. Mark was lined up for the LCQ. The gate dropped! Mark got the holeshot and easily won the LCQ. The Main was 2 races after the LCQ. Mark was happy to see that he was over 8 gates away from Blake Gopy. The card was up! It turned sideways! The gates dropped! Mark was out in front but Blake came out of nohwhere and took the holeshot. Mak and Blake exchanged places for half the race! They were neck and neck the last corner of the race. They were about 300 yards from the finish line jump. Blake accelarated and bumbed into mark causing him to slow down. mark accelarated thought they were neck and neck again! Cliffhanger! [/QUOTE]
