Saw that. Saw a sick Doo as well in the lower section. Kept trying to go up the hill and I was yelling at the screen to abort. Sick up high is not usually a good outcome. Lol

Lmao I know the one you were talking about was an older XM turbo full mod I was on the edge of my chair with that one didn’t think he would risk taking it into the high section with it not running properly but she seemed to clean up once pointed uphill. These guys run such minimal
Fuel I think he was running out until he got pointed steeper

what does it really matter, if they dont make it to the top of the hill you dont get a time and you dont qualify so whether its a blown engine or an electrical issue its irelevant.

so what your saying is Polaris' numbers should have been higher??? :D

Doesnt it matter until one rider reaches the top??? If no one makes it to the top than are the highmarks counted???? Highest one wins??? I always wondered that.

To put it into context Keith Curtis won either 6 or 7 of those 17 trophy's. Thats pretty dominate.

Yep the guy is at the top of his game, every dog has its day, I wonder who will take his place?? Lots of the Polaris guys had solid runs, Blaine Matthew’s is coming into his own as well.

The one that caught my eye really was Jason Ribi. He put down some very good times, IMO he did much better this year than last.

yep highmarks are counted. This was the first year in a while where it was looking like it was going to be all just Highmark's not many making it to the top in the first gate orientation.

I'm hoping its a Doo rider. A Doo rider won the amatuer class. Lol
