Last race of the season, backwards race. In this one, you line up on the grid in reverse, no hot lap, no practice. You must judge the corners cold. It's like back roads riding. I'm on the green bike in green leathers. The vid is a might fuzzy cause I had to strink the file to get it to fit the 10 mb limit of the putfile.com site.

I wasn't even riding the race that hard and KILLED 'em. I don't normally get to critique a race, sorta neat. I was killin' them out of what is T2 on drive, looks like. I normally get through that 100 degree last corner, if I'm not in traffic, with a lot of drive and early on the power, too. Honestly, though, I was a little shocked how easy this one was. Joe Prussiano is on the 150cc four stroke behind me. He's a pro racer, taught riding schools in the past, a real fast guy. Stuart Fulton, the guy I drive around off the start, is really fast, too. I didn't even break a sweat in this one!

Backwards is my fav, though. It's very agressive. If I get a bad grid, I often have to throw some block pass bumps inside that last corner on people. Bumping is the norm in this one. But, I got away early, so I was a nice guy.

Joe's an agressive rider. You can see him put it under Stuart on the first lap. He didn't really have a wheel on Stuart, but stuffed him anyway. LOL!

That's pretty cool Goose..some nice riding. It was a little hard to follow at first and the camera man is a little shaky, but still..that's cool.

Well, it was a very nice looking Russian girl I know taking it with my camera. But, the non-compressed/messed with version is easier on the eyes. Little jittery, but she had it zoomed, hand held, a tiny little camera, and heck, maybe I had her all hot or somethin'.
