thanks for a great 4X race, thanks to sydney olympic [ark, thanks to all the event coorsdinators who made it possible. we all had a great day.
looks good, i saw the pics on phat snaps, did you go through the whole trak?
how did you guys go?
hey, sorry i couldnt coem yesterday guys, i wanted to watch, but turns out i had a friday detention :( anyway, i would be really interested to know how you went, and the result of the pro's as well. how did the gimp ride with the 888's ben?
cheers
Except for the damn rentacops threatening to search my bag for beer who got a prompt "fuck you". Police didn't mind some of the spectators enjoying a drink peacefully and cheering on riders so why did these police-wannabes have a problem with it?
Grant allens runs were a bit poor IMO, for all the hype of the "wickedcore sick pics" he was going to pull off the final table top it was a major anticlimax. The rest of the event was awesome though, the track was pretty schmick and there sure was a lot of atmosphere going around.
Quote of the day over the loudspeaker "He corners like a train"... wtf?

Took Grant a couple of goes to get the bottom double dialled, but he was pulling suicides and styling it by the end of practice. Guess he's not a racer.
So good to watch the pro's going all out, and being pushed to their limits by some bmx ring-ins.
Thanks Brett, SOP, and all you guys that put in. Next time I'm riding.

Judging from their gut size i'd say they were just jealous!
It was an Awesome day, well organised and run. A huge shout out, to all the organisers, track designers and builders, and anyone else involved. It was my first MTNX race, and i'll definately be doing more.

Yeah The call was that he was going to take it easy then bust big on the final jump.
I saw him come into the last turn with an absolute manical grin on his face but he was so busy looking at the big jump he completely mistimed the small double, front wheel cased and lost all his speed.
He looked pretty disappointed.

Do you need it spelt out?
Like he's on rails. ie he corners really well.

I thought it would be more saying that he corners really wide as trains cant turn sharply otherwise they will fall over.

if ya hadnt been so pussy whipped to show up in the morning, you would be saying different, as much as a hucker he is, that guy can ride, and with very good style and flow. he made the last jump look easy with his can-can's and shit.
