Quad Racing at Aztec !!!

[quadnut20]

Went out and watched Stoopidbot and WillyPop and a few other friends race !! The day started out sunny but by the time the quads got out all hell broke loose ( 3:00or so) Lightning struck all around us so the called the race after 1 lap ( someone was struck out there but I`m wait for the details )The rain and hail followed !! here`s a few pics !!

Yeah oh well, at least the race only lasted 1 lap so i didn't miss much

5 people were injured by lightning. bad stuff. I also heard a rumor that they are talking about having the next race at VDR in Berthoud

Thats bad news to hear of someone having to go thru. That takes the enjoyment out of getting to attend such a fun sport for someone to get hurt. We know theres a chance of a rider to get hurt but to have a storm be the cause is not what would be in my mind.

They don't. That was the 1st time in 20 years that quads have been able to ride the track.

I can't remember if it was last month or next month but the CHCA is holding a race in junction. But CHCA is ridiculously pricey for what it is.

There were several guys from Grand Junctiopn at the race today.
