here is what i did saturday. got this old YZ 490 going last weekend and had it set up with pauly paul to go with me to the dry lake bed in boulder city to flog it a bit. i knew if i rode it i would probably kill myself. well i decided to start it again in the garage before he came over and somehow messed up kicking away at it. all of a sudden i had this huge hole in my leg and blood going everywhere. thats what i get for not putting on a riding boot. lesson learned. that kick start lever is really high. by the way if anyone wants this bike, 500 bucks and its yours. i have a good seat coming for it i bought on ebay.

an accountant i had a long time ago told me to just throw it away because unless its sent by certified mail they cant prove you got it. not much they can do about that. i have never had a problem.

Anyone else planning on going?

I think general admin tickets are $30, reserved seats are $45.

May 17-18th, Primm NV.

the rj has 5 dollar off coupons in the sports section the last 2 days . i plan to go tomorrow.

ok. got the afternoon off tomorrow. was planning on my neighbor going but he cant so im flying solo. anyone else gonna be there tomorrow?

track closes at 6:30? what the hell. what happened to night qualifying? i planned on taking half the day off friday and going. got stuff i need to do on the weekend

We just got back today from a 6 day trip today! They are filming a movie call "Land of the Lost" remember the old TV show. Will Ferrell and Brendon Frazier are a couple of the stars out at the dunes for the next few days. We actually were told to move while out watching them film, I guess we were in there shot. Around 5:00pm yesterday they were finishing up filming for the day so we went down to the set and caught a glimpse and confirmed it was Will Ferrell. Not really a person who gets star struck but it was cool to see them filming at the dunes!!!

geez. hollywood is keying on all the stupid sh*t us old farts watched back in the day. wonder what the sleestacks will look like. i heard they made a speed racer movie too.

overheard a waitress at the local buffalo wild wings saying she met will ferrell in pahrump. was staying there because of filming at the dunes. anybody know about up coming will ferrell movie?

all the race results are in todays rj on page 10c of the sports section

nice coverage pete. we could pool our resources and field a car, truck or buggy. DDR racing. that would be cool. how crazy would that be? oh well. just got back home after being out there since 6 in the morning. its fun to dream. im going to bed. got a day of course clean up to look forward to tomorrow.

Sounds like some good salsa!! I'll bring the beer.

i'll bring the chips

Am I the only person who could care a less about Nascar and/or Tony Stewart and what he has to say? I know there alot of Nascar Fans, but hey I don't give a crap about professional golf, hockey, baseball or basketball either.

go and play in your garden ken

We are racing in Class 10 and our car will be on display on Fremont Street on Thursday night. Cheers

i am working a stop check for the race. with a 16 hour time limit and the last car probably going off an hour and a half after the first its going to be one long day. how about some pics of the car pj?

i gave a ticket to a friend of mine and he is bringing his little camper just for a place to hang out and use the toilet. maybe we can hook up and park in the same area. we always go early to beat the traffic and hang out

there is no overnight camping in the parking lot. we did do that a few years ago for the truck race without any hassle but i think they will enforce it nascar weekend. you can bring it in for the day.

just an update....looks like there is going to be over 260 racers showing up to have fun... :smoker: :kart:

where you camping spooner? looks like i will be bunking with joe jackson, camping with vince.

you may want to diversify a little bit one of these years. the dunes are always there but this is a sun up to sun down action weekend for 2 days once a year. i wish it was a differant weekend too. got the daytona 500 and NBA allstar weekend all this weekend.

the ones so far today kinda suck.

Giants baby!! Gotta see a blemish on the Pats season! I took the Giants on the money line. :freakin_nuts:

not bad. could be just like when the pats were 14 point underdogs and stunned the rams a few years ago.

Depending on what book you use....13 to 15 points. I would take the Giants and 13. :freakin_nuts:

where did you see those numbers? all i have been hearing on the talk shows here is 12 to 12 and a half. it opened at 14 but the wise guys jumped on that and knocked it down to 12 quick. i would have taken the 14. may still take the giants. was a good game last time they played in november. the under looks good to i think. was 56 but i think that came down right away to 54. not sure what it is now. gonna play some props just for fun. makes the game more interesting.gives you an opportunity to hoot and holler and or groan during the game.

this is short course desert racing. balls to the walls for 13 miles a lap. the infield is set up with alot of jumps with spectator area. come and watch. its alot of fun. if you want to be close to the action you can volunteer to help work a checkpoint for the race both days. pm me if you want to help

me and another guy from work are planning to go to the leap. not sure if i can make it on the weekend. i worked the races a couple of years ago on the course. they are fun to watch especialy when your down there in the thick of it.

free female cat. light calico. 3 years old. spayed. very friendly. we have too many damn cats. this was my daughters and we got stuck with it. in henderson. 558-9640

didja ever figure out why the 700 kowy wouldnt start, dave. was a definate bummer as i was lookin forward to duning with yuh...........maybe next time. we usually park in the same place.

was thinkin about it on the way home. when i filled the gas tank the gas can was leaking and it was going over the end of the left exhaust pipe. didnt think much of it then but maybe the gas went in the pipe and into the motor. the bike ran great all day until i filled it up that last time. that really sucked because i was looking forward to that last ride. again thanks for the ride. chris got some good video i will try to send you. the squirt sure enjoyed it. each time chris put the camera on her she had a big smile on her face. no fear. she will be a handfull when she gets her own quad someday. wont be to long from now.

ya but you have to drink 30 of them to cop a buzz. weak a$$ beer. go budweiser.

why do you have two stickers. we went to sand hollow last yer and i got one apeice for th quads. just put them on the back fender. i have heard that utah honers cali stickers. and the other way around. does anyone know for sure if tht is true?
