USCC Red Lake 200 crash into a fire hydrent.
I only make $600 a month, drive to college, and drive to Army reserve drill 300 mi round trip plus hotel. Parts are going to cost around $1200-$1600. If you or anyone you know would like to make a donation (parts, money), sponsor, or help me out at all so I can get back on the track befor the season is over; Please fell free! Just contact me. In Gafton my sled would not start, on the way there, I totaled my car and trailer.

It was a pretty bad layout there were alot of racers not to happy, the swamp section was bad with big chunks of wood and stuff sticking out

 

[marpolsdofer]

the track had nothing to do with this, why the suspention did this dont know. I keep coming up with veriables but cant come up with nothing. I do know if the fire hydrent was not there or the steel poll either , I would have been able to save but was runnig to close so I let go. It acctuly hit the hydrent side ways. Jamye thought I was doing pretty good, I was going about 57 the bump befor that. Then looking befor air born was goin 51.

Its to bad becaues I was catching up to the cat.

I dont know man it sure looked to me like it was going back and forth more than up and down.Mine did that alot before I got a freeride track.Very scary crash though glad your okay.

 

[marpolsdofer]

I just think the free ride would have lost seepd on the loging roads and plus that stuff gets packed and down to dirt then I have no tracktion and just studs are doing the work. Like said if the hydrent would not have been there I would have been OK. The front is what intioanted the sideways travle. I had some problems with ski darting in the dirtch but knowwere els in the parade lap.
