Lee Posted June 18, 2004 Report Posted June 18, 2004 As I promised I would, I snapped a few pics at Sunday's MX Pro-Nationals in Southwick, MA. We got there at 9:00am, we didn't get the pit passes, but it was still a great day! I only got a few good pics but I've picked out some of the ones that weren't blurry or of riderless dirt. Evan Laughridge Greg Schnell James Stewart - I would have snapped a better picture but this kid is too fast for the camera!!! Nathan Ramsey And they're off Quote
evil Posted June 18, 2004 Report Posted June 18, 2004 that kinda has an outdoor glen hellen effect to it. good times. Quote
J..J. Posted June 18, 2004 Report Posted June 18, 2004 (edited) Looks like a nicely prepped track. Good pics. Edit: No Grant Langston??? South Africa man! Edited June 18, 2004 by J..J. Quote
coolhead03 Posted June 18, 2004 Report Posted June 18, 2004 I've got some pic to but need to get them developed. I wish i would have seen you there, I was lookin for the HQ shirt everywhere but no luck. Maybe next time, I'll atempt to post some of the pics i got. One of those disposeable cameras that comes with a disc, I'll have to have you walk me through the posting process. Quote
roosthrower Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 I watched the races on espn2 today. Stewart is unstopable. He took first in both motos and looked faster than half the 250 class riders. Carmicheal is just as unstopable as Stewart in the 250 class. Carmicheal could win on any bike, two or four stroke. I think Reed would be faster on his yz250 that he won the supercross title on. He seems to ride the two stroke more aggressivly than the 450 that he is riding outdoors. That track got rough quick. I wanna try riding southwick. I looks like it would be a blast on four wheels since the track is so sandy. Quote
Lee Posted June 20, 2004 Author Report Posted June 20, 2004 I wanna try riding southwick. I looks like it would be a blast on four wheels since the track is so sandy. Southwick does ATV races as well: Next Saturday (June 27) there will be quad racing there. I'd like to get down there & see them, but I'm not sure if the schedule will allot for that. http://www.moto338.com -Lee Quote
00BANSHEE Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Nice pics Lee. I just watched the race today on ESPN2 also. I can't wait for next year with Stewart in the 250 class. Quote
Cotton eyed Joe Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Cool pictures!!! Riderless dirt can be a bitch. I also hate the 1/2 bike, and all 4 wheels on the ground before/after jump picture. Quote
Lee Posted June 21, 2004 Author Report Posted June 21, 2004 yeah no doubt. I can post some tires, dirt, fence, and of course when I DO get a shot of someone in the pits their head is turned away. so no one believes me when I say..."yeah that's Carmichael." At the 2002 Southwick Nationals I got a couple of these, but in one you can see it's who i say it is. lol. The Carmichael one you'd have to take my word on. Quote
Meat Posted June 22, 2004 Report Posted June 22, 2004 yea i watched the races on ESPN too. Always did like the Southwick sand track, glad to see the quads are racing it now too. Last years race was the first time they held a GNC at Southwick and this year was the first year they held a GNC at Glen Helen in 15 years, so the quad racing is finally coming along. Lap times around Southwick were right around 2 minutes even...... Stewart was doing 1.55 second laps. five full seconds faster... Quote
