Here is a link to the first video I uploaded of the race, this was the toughest most dangerous course I have ever done.
Had something bad happen but will wait until the video is uploaded and let you guys see it.
Not real happy with my gopro 7, the battery does not last. Only got one lap and a little video after my incident, wish it would have gotten the whole race, would have been some killer edge of your seat stuff.

Fast forward to about 8 minutes to get past the boring stuff, sorry I have no way to edit.

Appears your Pilot was running great. Love seeing the videos. How much damage is there to your machine? I see the front bumper is bent up. Glad you were able to continue racing. Any idea what cause the nose to dive? Were you just not on the throttle enough? Looks like a blast!

Treacherous at times but man does that look like fun. Sorry about your nosedive, looks like speed might have helped. Did you get to see track before hand? If not, you’re a nut and that is awesome.

Yes sir like a top, I was proud of her.
I did not get to pre run the course and screwed up, there were 3 of those woops in a row, I should have snapped it is mainly a bike track at least in the part I crashed in. That woop was 5 feet tall, yes 5 feet with very steep drops, 3 in a row.

I hit very very hard, front bumper broke 1 mount off the frame and pulled another off the bolt head, bent the headlight I just straightened it back, bent the roll cage + pushed it back in to my gravity tank, also bent the heck out of the gravity tank, right front down tube is bent. I have not taken anything apart yet, makes me sick to think about what I did to her.
She will be put back to 100%.

That track was no joke very technical and dangerous, I loved it.

Nope I did not get to pre run the track, big mistake on my part. That will not happen again if I can help it.
Treacherous, yep that is the word, I was like REALLY, in so many spots it is not funny.
After the first lap I got faster as I learned the course, I will do it again next year if I can, my kind of course.

More speed on that woop would have been much worse, they were huge, even the quads took them very slow.
