Round 3 Race Report

The 3rd round of the CKDC came and went quicker than Brian on prom night. Here’s a quick rundown of how it went.

The race was scheduled to be a 3 moto event but some folks thought it was a little too dark for the 3rd so we only counted the first 2. Hopefully for the next race everyone will bring their big boy pants. Brian and I traded moto wins but unfortunately for him a 3-1 doesn’t beat a 1-2.

Steve was new to the series and proved to have what it takes to run at the front of the world’s coolest backyard race series. I pimped him pretty hard in one corner and he never missed a beat. Reno ended up with a 3rd overall.

Bobby is an employee of the USPS and showed that he has plenty of experience at hauling the proverbial mail. He pulled down a 4th. I’m crossing my fingers for him and Reno to end the series with the same number of points so they can strip down to their whiteys and break the tie with a sumo match.

Mike had to run in to town and hand out a belt buckle at the local rodeo for his dealership (apparently that somehow sells pickups) and was unable to run the 2nd moto. We think NEKCAR is gay but employed the rule that he could have a stand-in get points for him. Young Austin stepped up and did a solid job to put mike in 5th.

Grant kept it steady and maintained his points lead with a conservative ride to end up 6th. I’d say something smartass about Grant but he’s a trained killer.

And last but definitely not least, my boy Jake raced with us for the first time. At the last event he was still on his 50 but has since stepped up to an 80 and he really did a good job. He even pulled a holeshot in one race. Had he not crashed in one moto his overall finish would have definitely been better. Vedy good grasshoppa.


Riders meeting in the front yard. This was pretty much a shit hot mess. This group needs Ritalin.

Here’s me attempting to chase Reno down….




…and then stuffing him like a Thanksgiving turkey. I’m sure mine is comin’.




Jake. Lookin’ cool little man.


All in all round 3 was a big success. Thanks to everyone for showing up and thanks to Adrienne for taking the pics. Stay tuned for round 4.
