The more the tracks,The better,But more money.The good part about more tracks is,It will get more people off the street!Hmmm they added more classes at stockton?I wonder if theyre is going to be a 16 and under class.I wont see you guys in vegas but probably in vallejo or stockton!
Jerry from Prarie City who has been running the track for 11 years seems like a down to earth guy. Then again I just met him this past week and that was my first impression. I might not have as much PB experience but I do have alot of racing under my belt from SCCA to NASA to AIRA. All I know is that when I was at the track, I couldnt wait to get on a bike and start riding it!!!
If anyone has plans to organize a series with Stockton, Prarie City, Vallejo, LeMans, Dixon, and hopefully Infinion. Im willing to help get it going and still have time for a 9 to 5, wifey, and 2 kids hahahaha... might sound like im talkin' out my a$$ but im serious. Yeah I might run a Cag in the open class but hey... nothing is permenant. Once im able to take this thing to its limit as far as riding skill goes, I know I can hold it down in proddy. 210lbs. aint gonna stop my fat a$$.
Anyway this was a good year IMO and hopefully 2005 we will see the ultimate PB series go from one city to the next in NOR*CAL!!!
As far as Prarie City goes, Jerry is done with it at years end. A new person will be running the track next year. I just want to let this person know that PB are here to stay "I hope" and to get a series going next year!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUUUUDE! its all good - don't get hammered too much - have a great time this weekend...
Team MacDadddy will be there for Sunday, but unfortunately we will not be able to make Saturday practice due to the fact that My store doesn't close until 4:00p.m.. Practice at Prairie City only goes until 5:30p.m. so by the time we get out of the store and make it up there the session will be over. We will however be there bright and early on Sunday. I will be running proddy as usual and Jeff will be in the 4.2 class.
I want to give a big thanks to everybody that will be participating in this race in advance I know that if this is successfull we will be able to put this in our schedule of tracks for next year.
I also may have a suprise track that i might be able to pull a rabbit on,, i will update you all when i have a better idea of what it will take.
Im pretty far from rubbin' elbows with you!!! Your pretty fast there man!!! But as I progress and finally make it into proddy we will see where I stand??? Cant wait!!! If I get a proddy bike now I know for a fact my wifey and kids would want to stick that thing where the sun dont shine!!! Gotta spread the attention evenly in all directions... feel me?
Patience young grass-hoppa, patience...

I stepped up...LOL...I just wish I didn't have to get lapped by Sonny....LMAO...
Yeah, I got a taste of your "STEP UP" when you passed me on the straight like I was standing still. I felt sooo disrespected... urrrgh...
Hope you and Brandon can make the next Prairie City race or one of the Vallejo ones. Unfortunately im not gonna be at race 7 in Stockton cause of a Poker Tournament im attending.

Dave and Tim... how was the race today 9/12??? We were all there on 9/11! I took a bad fall and hammered my akle pretty bad and have to go into Kaiser tomorrow cause it aint gettin' no better. Thats why I wasn't there today!!!
I love this track and especially how technically fast it is. Turn 3 is what got the best of me at practice and is where I hammered the ankle. Turn 9 (corkscrew) is what wow'ed me.
Elden also tore up his shoulder at practice and from what I hear he is out for awhile.
The track was better than expected!! For those of you reading this let me take you for a lap around prairie. The start finish line is on th 600ft straight away. This turns into a banking left sweeper that you can go balls out through, at the apex though you have to be hard on the binders because you have a really tight right hander fallowed by what seems lioke an even tighter left. if you screw your exit out of turn one you've just messed up the next 2 corners. Exiting turn 3 you have to take as wide as possible to get a good drive out of it, almost to the dirt. go full throttle again to turn 4 this is a slight down hill right that is off camber (sloped to the outside) line up to the outside chop throttle then go for it. the off camber will make you drift to the outside once you've apexed,, you have a very short shoot to cross over the track to setup wide for turn five. Turn five is a flat fast wide left. From the exit of turn 4 through turn 5 to turn 6 is WFO then it is really hard on the brakes (i mean really) for the hairpin 180 cresting down hill slightly right hander. 6 i was dragging from my boots to my knee pucksall the way through. race down the hill there is a little kink before you get to turn 7. The left hand turn 7 you need to take the whole corner wide because the asphalt is slick on the normal line you should take. then it is wfo again up a pretty steep hill with a kink to the right. Turn 8 is a cresting left but steep down hill. Turn 9 is really off camber and really down hill,, I had a hard time all day with that turn trying to find a goo dline to set up 10 so i could get a good drive out of it. After 10 there is a long sweeper that you are hard on the gas through until you get to 11. 10, 11, and 12 remind me of the chicane setup on stocktons track. Haul *** to 11 then tapthe brakes apex a little late so you can switch back for the right hand 12. Back on the long strait again!
the only bad part was there was only 2 4.2's (team Sukka free where were you guys?)) you guys let jeff take 1st place. 2 1/2 Proddy bikes (lol sorry woof) Woofs bike was having problems all day with the clutch. 8 cags! Jerry and the whole crew that goes there loved having us,, and said it was the best entertainment for the day. I want to make prairie a normal stop for us pocket bikers. I have to tell you that our # need to increase more than what we had on race day.
SMRRC doesn't have a race scheduled for October so we should all plan to go to PC on the 18th!
You couldnt have explained the track any better!!! Turn 3 is what got me and hammered my ankle. This is why I did not make the race for Sunday! We should have ahd waaay more bikes out but this month was a very busy month for pocket bikes. Still though Jerry knows we are here and we should all make practice and race in Oct. This I beleive is the last race of the year at Prairie City.
Turn 9 is crazy as you have to keep your bike as vertical as possible cause of the degree of off camber. Take the bike with you into your lean and your **** near screwed from a lowsyde or your rear tire breeaking traction!!!
