well i was out on the weekend with some friends. My mechanic figured why my shifter wasn't working quite right. without my headlights the volts are not staying up during low rpms, so I got a resistor kit and I am installing that this week, so that should cure everything because i am getting tired of being stuck in 1 gear.

I also got my snowboard bindings on and they make a world of difference on my stability. I did a case study with a friend who studies kinesolgy and I am waiting to see what kind of excercise I can do with my obliques, so I can get more stable for the corners, because soem times I am finding my butt doesn't like to stay in place. I have been told you can get the stuff they use for grip on fishing boats to help keep you in place since a friend of mine uses it on his sled and his 4 wheelers when its muddy out. Hopefully if the weather stays good I willbe able to get my track fixxed up to ride.

I will be racing Round 7 of the WPSA in Maine at the Hemonds Mx park in the c class on august 16th and 17th just less than 2 years after injury so I am trying to bust my butt to finish in the top 10.

well enough reading here are the pics

Great pics looks like you've got the corners down. Do you use anything to keep your bum on the seat ? or do you just strap your feet on ?
I rolled my quad last weekend just lucky i wasn't strapped to it, i dived off as it started to roll. Still ended up under it though, but no damage so it's all good biggrin.gif

just a calf strap....i am goin to a hardware store sometime very soon to get the rubber stuff they use on fishing boats. iwas told bya friend who uses it if he goes mudding on his 4 wheeler or goes snowmobiling it helps keep his but in place and hesn't strap himself in
