sucks

This season I hope goes as well as it did in 08'.   The PAMX Thor Spring Series started at Roaring knob.  I won my first moto in 250b and got the hole shot as well,  in the second moto I got third.  I had injured my shoulder in the first moto of schoolboy 2 due to my sprocket loosing teeth so I ended up biffen it off the hot start.    Hey things will happen and you just have to deal with it and go on.  overall it was a good day and I had fun.  Micheal Willard was there from Canada with Eleven 10 Mods Chad Sanner.   Not sure if going to Pleasue Valley for round 2 of the series or if going to Tomahawk for area qualifier's but I do know I'll be racing.

Some will understand, some won't . When there's something that you love so much as I do to ride and the hopes and dreams come with it you tend to get rapped up in all of it and tend to forget what's important in the sport.  You go with intention's of winning, remember all the support you have to get there and whom are your true friends that help you to achieve the most that you can.  Sometimes people will have other intention's and cause havic in your life because you tend to believe in them more than your family and friends and support from out sider's.  Just remember who has helped along the way and who has been there over time.   People will say there not going anywhere and will help you to see you get to where you wan't to be, but in reality it seems there only out to accomplish something for themselves.    Just remember  to get to your goal's and dreams, remember those who have continued to be there over time and have helped,  will be there tomarrow.   For some to reach there dreams, they don't care about the cost of friendship, and whom they have hurt along the way. It's a game for them. Someday if they reach there goals and dreams it won't matter, because as they say: Sometimes it can be lonely at the top.

   I want to thank the following for supporting me in the 2008 MX season.  If it wasn't for the support and help of companies, friends and family I wouldn't of been able to compete and finished were I did in the district 5 series and the PAMX Series. 
   Thank you  Tom's Cycle and Staff,  Pro Action, Thor, Indiana Marble & Granite, Truck Parts Unlimited, RSM, Torrell Auto Sales, Southtowne Motor's,  Jeremy Cribbs and Family, Shane and April Shipley, Mike Boyer, Wellness Concept's,  brother
Tommy, Dad, Mom,  and last but not least, Jeff and Tim Nelson.  Thank you for all you've done and for believing in me.

Switchback's Gobbler's Grand Prix was pretty cool. Didn't do to bad and there was quite a few that were there from the PAMX Series.  Different Kind of racing between a woods race and a motocross race combined on one track.  Brock Hepler was there.  Shane Shipley entered in the Vet C class and finished 12th overall. Not bad for someone that hasn't been racing for about eight years and to have physical challenges.  Also Greg Paine and his son Mike finished one and two in the 125C class.  Also my friiend Jeremy Cribbs came and rode my YZ 250  and finished 9th overall out of 33 bikes. Not bad for his first race and that it wasn't your normal race format.  It was alot of fun and glad I went.  Not going to Budds Creek but for those that are Good Luck to All and stay safe.

Ok so the shootout is over and only a handful of us came to represent the PAMX Series. Dissapointing. Understand weather wasn't great and some went home, but Sunday turned out to be a great day for weather . I didn't fare so well but hey being eligable to run at the shootout was cool. To all the racers that showed up from the PAMX Series congrates on your stats and for being a part of the American Suzuki  Triple Crown Shootout.  Hopefully next year will have more of a turn out  from the PAMX, since it will be held at Pleasure Valley and there will be Manufature Contingencies.  

This will be the end of racing in the 2008 season this weekend.  Hopefully it will be a great wekend of racing  and everyone has fun.   Good Luck to all and stay safe.

This weekend will be the final round of  The Team Green PAMX State Championship Series at Steel City.
  Racing should be great and weather looks good.   Then next weekend will be the Shoot out for  the PAMX, D6 Ultimute Series and the MDRA Series at Doublin's Gap. It's a three day event  Sponsored by Suzuki. This is the first event ever to be held between the three series.  I'll be competing in the School boy 1 class and the MX Lites B Class.  No matter the out come, It will be great to know that I was apart of the first ever shootout.  Hope to see all from the PAMX Series there!! 

Well, rebuilt YZ 125, Went to Plumcreek Saturday  and blew up again. Last minute deal was able to use a Friends 2003 Suzuki RM 125. Went to High Point and ran,  finished 2nd in both moto's. It was great.  I battled with Anthony Laird and Stanley Cosner . we all had fun and enjoyed ourselves. I really like riding Suzuki's. There's just something about them I really feel Comfortable on them. Even though my friend Jeremy Cribb's bike is a 03'  it rips.  I'm glad to have friends like Jeremy. Thanks Dude !!!
