    Pics from Unadilla today

    Today I attended my first ATV national.The race was at the famous Unadilla MX track in central,ny. I've been watching bikes race here since the late 80's and I've never seen anything as fast as the pro quads I saw today.The fastest lap time was 2 min and 20 seconds.Ricky Carmichaels fastest lap time at Unadilla is 2 min and 38 seconds.The machines these guys ride are insane too, only the best of the best in parts and mods. John Natalie led moto1 until he crashed or had mech probs( i couldnt see from where I was at).Travis Spader won moto1. Moto 2 was all Jeremiah Jones.That guy knows how to git-r-done.Here's some pics form the races.

    Here's a pic of the landing of the "SkyJump". Most guys were doing 100' with no problem.A few guys landed near the 150' mark.

    I was invited to go to that race today with my friends but I had to work this morning---Gotta pay for all this stuff Ive been buying lately!!
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    Check out my Tiger 3 wheeler Webpage..my quest for a TIGER MUSEUM started 2004 http://sites.google.com/site/tigerrotax/home

    Rides: TIGER Factory line up, Tricky Dicks Cagiva 200, 4- Franks 3 and 4 Wheelers

    Dang Jim!! I was about 30 minutes from you this weekend. I was up in New Berlin, NY golfing at the Riverbend Golf Course on Saturday/Sunday I was staying in Norwich with my family for my grandparents 50th anniversary.

    The drop into "gravity cavity" is about 75-80 feet.The drop off in the back section is close to 100' from take off to landing.As for the start,anyone that wants to be in the middle of that mess is crazy,lol
