With Tracks Soaked Unbound Energy / TeamVRM.com’s Clark Goes Grand Prixing

 

Since it has been raining everyday for the past week, all the motocross races were cancelled.  I called down to a local track, Backwoods MX, to see if their grand prix race was still on.  They said it was dry and they would be racing.  I thought it would be fun to go play in the woods so we loaded up and went.

 

The course was around 4 miles long.  It consisted of a motocross track, open field, but mostly tight woods.  The track was dry but the woods were a little slick with some monster mud holes.

 

I knew I would have some stiff competition from a local expert woods rider, Shad Ricketts.  I knew I would be faster on the open stuff but he was way better in the woods. 

 

I decided to bring this back out of retirement for one last event.  I pulled the holeshot on the 250 two stroke. I led the first lap with Shad close behind.  Then on the second lap, I got stuck in a mud hole.  It was buried over the hubs.  I had to get off my bike and pick both wheels out of the hole.  I lost like 40 seconds.  I was way back but I kept charging.  I started to make a little ground up.  Then, with two laps to go Shad’s hydraulic clutch broke and I was able to go on for the win.

 

It was a fun day because I like running for 1 hr and then I can be home before lunch.  It was good training and bouncing off trees can only make you tougher.  Loretta Lynn’s is getting closer.
