SECCA Racing Twin Lakes 5/13/23 C60+ Another Mudder!

Looked a tough race!

You did a great job in some terrible conditions. Wish you could have run when it was dry! I would welcome your input for improving the course other than the weather that we can’t control.

[@mydirtbikestuff]

Thanks for the compliment. The course would have been darn good, if not for the rain. You have the beginnings of a great off-road facility.

To say this is a brutal workout is an understatement. I took my '23 SX-F 350 out today and in Austin Tx, we had some similar rain the last few days. Of course, I wasn't racing but it was all I could do to stay upright and after 45 minutes I was dying! The humidity on top of the slippery conditions, I really didn't have much fun! LOLOLOL I'm mid 50's, do Jiu Jitsu and go to the gym 4 times a week...I was still exhausted. Fell a bunch today too and as you know, these bike can get awfully heavy and hard to pick up with the heat, arm pump and just being worn out. I give you a lot of credit!!! BTW, I see the RMZ is still down?

[@mydirtbikestuff]

Thanks Brutus. Glad you got out to ride. Yes the mud kills an old body! The RMZ is ready to go, I just chose to ride the KTM. I am getting spoiled with the button!. CJ rode it last week and won B 4stroke.

@@mydirtbikestuff Well that's good to know that the RMZ is good to go. Who's bike is the KTM? I sure can't blame you being spoiled by the button! LOLOL I've been a two stroke guy my entire life and so this is my first experience with a 4 stroke in trails. I think I stalled the bike 10 times in under 1 hr. Now I know why so many prefer a two stroke for trails and enduro riding. This "flame out" thing is a real issue. Gotta be at the right RPM's at all times it seems. I really miss the two stroke. Next bike is 100% a two stroke!

@@brutus6328 the KTM belongs to my son, CJ. He and the boys had ball this weekend and I had to go by myself.

[@brutus6328]

This is quite funny....I just happen to be searching for more racing to watch, I see it's a SECCA race (Nolan and Logans dirt bike channel), then the guy talking is on a Suzuki, I'm really not thinking anything of it and then 5 minutes ..... it hits me!!!....I'm watching your son CJ! LMAO (I'm guessing it's your grandkids channel?) I always thought "CJ" was a friend of yours, never knew he was your son. Now I understand why you can borrow the "button bike" for so many races and NOT have to play "kickstart Kenny"! LOLOLOLOLOLOL

[@mydirtbikestuff]

Yes that is my son and his boys! We race together and have a great time. Nolan won the SERA Pee Wee championship last year, Logan finished 3rd, CJ got 3rd in B30, and I finished 4th in 60+. In SECCA I finished 3rd in C55+, Nolan 4th in tadpoles, Logan 5th in Tadpoles, And CJ had some injuries and ended up 7th in B open.😁
