national report
Wow, Lafferty and Bobbitt are fast!
Now I'll talk about the Gas Gas 200EC and 250MC. Jim loved his bike and said that the power was great. I'll leave the rest up to him to post. As for the 200EC, anybody who doesn't buy one is crazy! The mid range power was so good. The bike felt really narrow and light. It handles really well and went through the tight stuff so easily. LTR Racing did the suspensions on both bikes. They were just a little stiff at first but we softened them up as we went and by the end of the day they were great. Mark from Go-Fasters is working on getting me a little more low end power but only because I like to ride a gear high with a rekluse clutch and need that extra pull down low. I am 100% confident in the overall package of the Gas Gas 200. With the help of GoFasters we will get it dialed in and then I hope to get some good results in the national series. It is a ten race series so we will add the points up in the end. I have do doubt that we will be in the hunt in the A 200 class, the bike is that good. Yesterday's 6th place was because of my body hitting a wall in section 3 (at mile 50) I recovered thanks to Mark, who worked on the suspension all day to dial it in. He did and we made it the distance with ease. Thank you to everyone who helped make this past weekend possible and to everyone who wished us good luck. I promise that we will make you proud and we will get the Gas Gas name to the front of the pack. PS. Boy does a body hurt after 3 months of not being on a bike. There is nothing like riding when it comes to conditioning. |

Congrats on a great ride
I can't imagine coming from a winter state and being plunked right into a national enduro on a never ridden bike with everyone watching. That's some pressure for sure. You did great and glad to hear you liked the bike also. It's hard for me to comprehend how those guys can go that fast. It's sick!! Were you using the Rekluse in the 200??? Skidad in MA |

Sumter Nat'l
Hi all – new to this forum, but wanted to chime in on yesterday’s race. It was great meeting Billy and Jim this weekend and I expect we’ll see some super results for GasGas from them this season. As Billy mentioned, Mark from GoFasters took care of all the GasGas riders and there seemed to be significant interest in the bikes from everyone who came by.
I too am kinda sore today – that was one whooped out sand race! 9th in class was not what I hoped for at the opening round of the season, but unfortunately had a freak thing happen in the first section that took me way too long to diagnose. The ignition wire terminal unplugged itself from the coil and no more spark! An easy fix, but nevertheless, a lesson learned the hard way and I spent the rest of the day trying to claw my way back from last place in class! Other than the little problem early on, the bike was perfect. Plenty of smooth power and exceptional torque to pull taller gears in the sand and whoops. Handling was spot on too – so looking forward to the next round. Thanks also to Aiken Motorcycle Sales in Aiken, SC for the clothing deal for this race and to Jason Griffin (2006 AMA Sportsman of the year) for pitting for me in SC. Curt Comer GG EC300 GG TX280 |
