Well Dale long time no see fella. The track has changed at Celeste since the last time you were probably out there. I was watching another friend of mine race your class on a banshee, I turned just in time to see you flop and splat. Didn't see what caused it though. Kinda looks like what a friend of mine did and maybe jabbed the brakes a little and nose dived. Maybe they have it on the video that they were filming that night, supposed to be selling it at the next race I think. You going to make it to the next race or will it be a few weeks?

I was there watching the guy on the yellow and gray one. So how did you place overall? He did pretty well considering it's his first race since he put the quad together. So did you get hurt very bad, hopefully not. We need to keep the quads alive out there. You going to be at the next race out there? Do you have some of the pictures that you were talking about? Sucks to crash and get hurt, sucks even worse on someone elses quad when you crash!

Man no wonder dude got hurt, looks like the bottom of the blade hit at the headlight and leveled the top. Well Dale the next race is next saturday, you going to be there? The track is a little different than before, but good.

David,
I dont race, just there for encouragement for my friend. I stick to the trails and on the ground when possible. I'd rather go fast than high. We should be at practice on Wednesday if it doesn't get rained out. Then most likely there for the race on saturday also. How about you, you going to be okay to ride by then.

Dude sorry to hear that. I wasn't there but know who you are I have raced there plenty of times.I run the 97 Banshee with the two into one pipe. We raced TQRA at Joes Sat morning, talk about a mud fest but it was fun. Sundays race was cancelled I believe because Hunter got hurt saturday night practicing, I heard he had to be care flighted out. Thought celeste would be rained out.

I'm really not sure about hunters wreck. I heard he hit a bulldozer or a tractor something like that. And the first moto was a mud fest there wasn't really many people there to race only five in my class open am. I thought about stopping in celeste after joes by everything was super dirty and I needed a shower pretty bad. Did you hurt the quad any? How long on your recovery time?

Hey Jen, I'm still around we went to Tennessee and raced a national. Thats a hole different ball game there, but it was fun. I will try to make the next celeste race maybe. So lonestar what pics are you talking about?

Hey everyone. I dont really know how to explain this... But I'm going to try. Last night I raced the 1st round of the Full Moon Series at Badlands MX. If you don't already know... I'm #7 on the black/red Banshee. The only thing I can remember from the night was I did crappy the 1st moto, and I was passing the guy for 2nd place when I endo-ed. When I woke up, the EMS guys were poking my shoulder, and my helmet was shattered. The guys I was with told me what happened, but I'm wondering if anyone else saw it. I have a mild/medium concussion, and am still peicing together the night. If any of you guys have info on it, thanks alot! It kinda sucks to forget something that bad.
If I post any wrong/bad information, I'm really sorry.. I don't really know what I'm doing at the moment.

I was talking to the guy on the black 250R with the K&K graphics, he said that Joes was a mud pit. It didnt rain in Celeste all that much. I think it was that same guy that ran over me.
What happened to Hunter? I heard about his wreck. Some kid on a 60 got care-flighted off Badlands the race after me.. Everyone said I started running off when I saw the helicopter.. Because I thought they were getting me!

Yeah, Hunter hit the bucket of a tractor. They have a message up on their homepage Caddo Point Motorsports about him hitting the bucket of a tractor. I sure hope he's alright! I knocked the mudscreen out of my bumper.. So I've been told. I'm still not sure where my Banshee is.
I wrecked on that jump... They call it a triple, but there's a take-off jump, and then a tabletop kind of jump.. You double it. I'm sure you know which one I'm talking about. It's right beside the starting line.

Jennifer, were you there to watch the blue Banshee or the number 3 Black/Yellow one? I am pretty sure that it is all my fault. That jump has always thrown me nose-down, especailly that night. Hunter Miller was riding Jason Williams 400ex when he had the wreck. If anyone is interested in seeing photos... I think it will shock you. We should all pray for him.. After seeing these pictures, you will wonder how he lived. I am planning on getting a video of the race too. I will be there for the next race. Hope to see you all there

I placed 7th. One in front of the guy on the yellow/black Banshee. That is one sweet bike! I got 14 points, and the guy that won only got 30, so I've still got a good shot! I'll get to work on those pictures right now!

They should be in your email Dale. I sent them to you and Jennifer
Posted by: lonestarbanshee
Yeah Jennifer, it looks pretty bad. Jason didnt mind too much I dont think... He was talking about getting an LSR steering stem and stuff. I guess now he has an excuse. Are you going to race next weekend? Let me warn you on that camelback triple.. it throws you strange. Never the same.
Posted by: lonestarbanshee
Ohh, I see. Well, I have alot of tinkering to do on my Banshee, but, I will be there for the next race. I doubt I'll go to practice.. I was there last Wednesday just to get a good idea of what the track feels like. I think they lengthened the finishline double.. I flatlanded it in 3rd gear on the throttle stop. I have to order a Troy Lee visor... Then I'll be ready to go!
