thanks if you give me some i will make sure flem has them posted….
so then it must be that they have not communicated about it amongst themselves.
the only reason i wanted to post it there was to get the word out i just assumed nj board members knew about it/ ie that it was official.
just thought the national would be a good place to advertise for it.does anyone have a hard copy of that poster/ front page of the website of the hyper pro/am series? may be a good idea to post something next to registration trailer this weekend to get the word out about the series… it seems there was a little confusion on that other board regarding who knows what….. and what is exactly going down… if its posted then we will all be on the same page. even if its a black and white version just to hang for the weekend( may be too late to do flyers)
nj officials will be asked about it this weekend i am sure so if there is something posted they can just point to the poster/ flyer… if they are unsure of the details…
just a thought
wow that is awesome lee. i like it!!!!
sorry… i think the decision maker went in about 96 till 97 then they took it out and put in with that rhythm section.( 3rd straight)
ok heres the story i got straight from the horses mouth( mr smith is the master of track memory and i dont ever question it…lol)
in 94-95 hc had 2 sets of doubles in each straight ( 4 ) except for the first one which was the starting hill then table to double to 1st turn… rest of the track was double double turn…double double turn… blah blah… it was boring..so they changed it and put in decision maker ams one side, and big doubs on the other… that stayed for about 2 yrs and hardly anyone was jumping it. dan said he thinks scotty was jumping it at around 9 yrs old but thats about it. then they took out the decision maker and put in the “rhythm section” which was a small doub, larger doub x2 then step up. that was the yr i invested in a chest protector for dan and boy did he use it. i think the knabes donated a truck load of hay for the pole areas ( just for dan… he didnt quite make them most of the time) but thats what happened. iremember when he started jumping every week he would say at least once on a saturday..to brian lynch…i hate this track it sucks yada yada..i cant get these jumps… he kept tellin him to keep trying and then marcus helped him out and in about a month or 2 he got them down.. not smooth but no more rolling down the hill sideways ( ps fox got so much business from us ( north jersey racing)we got them as a team sponsor for chest protectors…lol)
so i dont know what the moral of the story is…. for some if the frustration of not getting it right away is too much they may quit…or persevere and keep trying out of stubborness or the love of the sport… whatever it is i think each kid/rider will have to make that decision…
i think comparing back then to now is impossible to do…you had one year where greg morgan couldnt jump squat then when everyone started jumping that straight he did it and then went and finished world#1..so go figure… i feel challenge is always good each rider has to ride within their abillity.. if a rider will quit if the jumps are too hard then they may have possibly quit playing soccer or skateboarding or anything else when the going gets tough…. who knows…
dont dumb down the tracks but make them do-able.
as usual brett its all your fault
Peace
thanks! moving up to that class was an eye opener for sure… having a bday the week before was wild!!! its going to be fun he is really looking fwd to that open series- i hope we get some other riders from out of state too… have to post it on that nebmx news site as well i think there are quite a few new pros/superclass riders that post there as well… saw some down in fla//i am not sure how to put a link up… can someone post the announcenment with the hyper/pro-am series up on http://www.nebmxnews.com for me? one of these days i will learn this techy stuff..
