This past memorial day weekend we raced up in Washougal, WA at the famous Washougal mx park. For me it was the first time I had ridden at this track, and I was looking forward to it. Unfortunately when we got there on Saturday, practice was cancelled due to rain and them wanting to keep the track good for the Sunday and Monday racing.
Racing started Sunday with all the modified and open classes. For me, I had three classes which included; 450 B mod, 250 B mod, and Collegeboy. The first set of motos started out awesome as I won both the Collegeboy and 450 B, and also got a 3rd in 250 B. I was liking the track more and more each time I rode it, and was looking forward to the second set of motos to get started. Unfortunately mother nature had other plans, and right before the start of the second motos it started to rain. The track got super slippery super fast and by my last couple motos it was just survival to try and make it to the finish line. For me I was able to put in another good three motos and was able to qualify in all my classes for the day.
Monday started and the main track was still muddy from the day before so they made a grass trackl in a bug grass field and we were able to race on that for the day. The track started out really slick due to all the grass and people were falling over left and right including me who fell about 8 times just in practice alone. The first set of motos went well for me and I was able to keep it on two wheels and finish inside the top three in both 250 B stock and 450 B stock. Second motos started and I knew I just had to ride another solid couple motos to get top four and qualify for lorettas in my stock classes as well. I was able to do just that, and rode a good last couple motos to finish off the weekend and qualify in all classes for Loretta's.
Overall results for the weekend:
450 B Mod - 1st
450 B stock - 2nd
250 B mod - 4th
250 B stock - 4th
Collegebpoy - 1st
