Some youtube videos of the last flat track race

[Billy Golightly]

This is from down at Eastbay, YAMAHONDAMAN (Ronnie) filmed both of them. The first one is the second heat, and the second one was the main.

I had some really bad fatigue problems in this race, the main event especially. I'm making sure that does not ever happen again though. I have a small write up with the details of the race and stuff in my Sponsorhouse blog if anyone else missed it.


No helmet camera footage, it died on me :(

[Billy Golightly]

Yeah...we look pretty fast in the video, except for the main where I'm creepin a long :lol: I did good in the heat though

[ccdhowell]

I have flat track race envy.

[Dammit!]

That looks like a blast.

[Yamahondaman]

NICE !!! since i started early on the Brown Bottles ... i see that the Camera was shakey in some spots .... Nice Vid. !!!

[team-red-rider]

nice job guys....sorry i couldnt make it this time around...

[Billy Golightly]

Ronnie are you gonna race next time we're down there or am I gonna have to change your picture to the Armchair racer?

[Bryan Raffa]

SWEET!! I See the gorilla isn't monkeying around!!:drool:

[Yamahondaman]

Ronnie are you gonna race next time we're down there or am I gonna have to change your picture to the Armchair racer?

.....:beer ......
Hey Raffa .... Gorilla is right ... shake his hand some day ... DANG !!!

[Levithan]

Wow! So who was that that won? What kind of bike is he riding? Is that a Tecate? Geez, i wanna go ride! =)

[Billy Golightly]

the winner of both the heat and the main is Alan (sykolincoln) on an 85 250R.

[SYKO]

that would be me!! tecate?? maybe soooon......

[fla 2-stroke]

great vids guys.you can really get around that track.I think you did a great job ronnie.Its not easy holding a beer and filming.

[ceaserthethird]

How many times was the THUMPER Lap ? ? ? :lol:

Was it a 200x or 350X ? :wondering


Nice Vid ... Keep Up The Good Work :beer

[Dammit!]

Nice Vid ... Keep Up The Good Work :beer

Gotta give that guy a lot of credit for getting out there and doing it. With the right mods and proper setup, I bet that thumper could compete.

[350xBomb]

lap traffic always makes flat trakkin more interesting too...nice vid...in the first one it looked like a chase but turned into a race at the end...

[SYKO]

thumper compete? he's a serious threat on the smaller tracks where me and billy cant whined out, if you get past him your golden, me and him have bumped pretty hard before (bent part of my frame) and im alittle evil on the track as well

[Billy Golightly]

He was the one lapping me in the main :lol: Really though he does very good, you'll notice that both times he grabs the holeshot. He almost always does too

[DixiePlowboy]

From watching the vids of all the races that's been posted, I'd say Walter and his X are very competitive. The torque on those smaller tracks seem to be a big plus, and from what I've seen(on the screen from my chair:)) his riding ability isn't holding him back any either.

I've seen his pic with the checkered flag on the SFTL website before.

[370banshee]

bill are you guys in the southern flat track league... i talk with a few guys on other boards form the southern flat track league... jim (skully) and anoher guy whos name escapes me at the moment... anyway skully races a hybrid lt250R with a Dr.Q lt500 engine and the other guy is building a kx500 powered tecate..

[Billy Golightly]

Yup, thats who we race with. I met Skully back in September at my first race, he had the PSI425 TRX there and man that thing was awesome. I haven't seen him around much lately though.

[hadar]

Win or lose, It still looks like a blast. That track is quite large looking. just imagine a mile track. :drool: :drool: :drool:

[scooterroo]

yeah y'all need some t3's running down there...maybe soon!!!

[filipinoredneck]

Itdoes look like a lotof fun. It lookls like it would drain a lot energy from you hanging on to those bikes at that speed in the corners. Your camera man should bring a tripod for his beer next time.:lol: :lol: :lol: Good going guys!!!

[370banshee]

jim sent me a couple sftl stickers.... we were racing some flat track up here in indiana... but they closed our track and are building a strip mall there..... it rally sucks too... we had a nice all clay 3/8 mile high bank track...

[x.system]

So, what size was the track? We ran 3 tracks last weekend 1/4, 1/3 and a 1/2 mile. On the 1/3 mile we were averaging 70/80 mph on the straights turning 17 sec lap times.

[Billy Golightly]

This is supposedly a 1/3 mile track but I don't know how it can be that small. If I recall the open quads were turning 15 something laps and Alan in the main was turning 16 and some change.
