After start we ran MX track which was a fun track when you could see.Then it was trough scoring and across this rikety bridge which I am amazed still stood after 3rd gear crossings.

After bridge is a big loamy cornfield.5th gear pinned for a long ways!

There were some awesome fifth gear fields.I found the YFZ has some vibrations in bars when held wide open in fifth.In whole race I really only passed maybe 6 guys in the fields.The woods was still where most of track time was spent.It was tough.Logs everywhere to cross lots of off camber turns even a couple small hill climbs.Next year I will setup my Dale for XC just for this race.As it was there was no way a 50in wide quad would have finished this without some major incidents.You guys will have to teach me how to do logs.One was in middle of a hill and it caught me all 3 laps!The water crossings really brought the spectators out.Were alot of fun.Here is XC Dale
