As usual, massive crowds and over-crowded pits. I borrowed Jeehat's 2009 KX250F and that's Tim's 2011 KX250F.

Using my new EVS gears - Helmets and chest guards.

Ranger's 2011 YZ450F.....450F are choice of weapon for many of the north riders.

Amir's KTM450SX

Another YZ450F....

From Thailand....

Lots of shops and amazing crowds. This photo was before the crowds came.

"The Godfather"

Brett, Criss, Amin and me + Boy wonder - IS HE GONNA BE THE NEXT ROBO? (Champion of the MX Junior Open)

Amin at the Starting line - 24 riders for the MX novice class!!!!

Amin not-so-good start......but managed to pass alot of riders to secure 11th by the end of the race.

My start line with Criss

Criss flying over the step-down jump

Thai rider styling for the camera.

After 1st moto, the clouds came over us and poured down RAIN.
WET WET 2nd moto for everybody.
Sorry no cameraman...all racing and very wet and muddy.

Here is the Final Expert class race.

Old Man class
1st Brett
2nd Ranger
3rd Me

Kied

This is the last lap of the last moto of the Expert MX class.
I walked down the hill to buy food and drinks and took out my cam to record this short vid.

You fly down the hill in 3rd gear full throttle and that is easily the fastest section of the track. Turn this muddy slimy corner, hit a step-up jump and continue to climb all the way up.
The time was nearly 7pm DARK and it was Raining.
