2012 MotoSport rF Nationals - Round 1 - Hangtown

[Brina927]

My hands are kiling me. Pumped on the lead for a bit first moto and had a nice battle with Shack both motos. All I can say is that the lappers were absolutely terrible. I'm actually shocked I did as well as I did.

Wow, this racing is not at all like last year from what I remember. Last year I felt like I could get comfortable and bang out laps, but this race was an hour and 4 laps of constant all out battling. This is gonna be an awesome summer, that was just so much fun. I saw a little complaining about my lag, really sorry, it doesn't happen too often, and doesn't last too long, and there's nothing I can do when it happens. I don't expect it to be a problem most weeks. If it does become a problem I may think of running over to my parents to race like I did sometimes last year. Sorry to anyone it affected, but I felt like I ran two very clean motos.

yea dude. you were laggin super hard. at one point you were at 13000 ping! like straight up disappearing for a few seconds at a time. glad i wasnt racing against you. well... i woulda been in the back of the pack anyways, so it wouldnt have effected me. haha

19-18... not bad for my 1st ever national. scored some points on a super hard track. racing was fun. there were some guys out there that shouldnt have been...


and i really wish we were swapping motos. give us a half hour break. people could simply get in at 8:20 for UID grabbing... wait for 250s to start. set timer and be back in 30 minutes... not a big deal IMO

Blake went 15-19 in his first national, he rode really good.

[Jones221]

Well, my 20-20 was a little better then I thought. 3-7, I'm happy.

No, I ride on Thursdays in the summer. I simply cannot make it before 9PM. It's senseless for us to have to be home for 4 hours when we can do 2 and get the same amount accomplished.

[Phathry25]

Moto 2 hated my guts. I'm pretty sure every time someone fell it was directly in front of me. If I didn't run right into them, they surely backed up into me or took off right as I was trying to go past them.

So frusterating. Moto 1 was fun tho!

oh. muh bad. didnt know it was scheduled around you. no biggie. just a suggestion to not kill our hands. dont want carpo tunnel or arthritis. i did better my 2nd moto some how anyways.

[barrington314]

oh and the track was dope. hats off to haggqvist for taking the time to build that for us. my only suggestion would be instead of 2 small inside ruts, just 1 normal sized rut. and scoot the hay bales back just a smidget. other than that, it was sick. produced amazing racing IMO.

[DJ99X]

Wow, didn't realise that it was back to back motos. That sounds painful

oh. muh bad. didn't know it was scheduled around your girly hands. no biggie. just a suggestion to make the series more accessible during the summer when people want to get out and do stuff.

carpo tunnel, that's from repetitive motion, right? aren't we still doing the same amount of repetitive motion? just w/o a 45 min break in between...

[yzmxer608]

Carpal tunnel .

Watched about 5 minutes of the livestream, couldn't resist... Good job Mikey and Pinned! TCrain did really good too.

[Phathry25]

Shit, alcoholism is a cause. I'm screwed.

[Jones221]

Wait.. You're complaining about back to back motos Barrington? For lack of a better saying, Grow a sack.
