2016 Tennessee Knockout Colton Haakar

[CombatYoga]

Here's a link to my gopro vid from the 2016 TKO.
The real carnage starts at 43:00. That is the hill called "Uphill Swamp".

I'm running the House of Horsepower pipe, silencer and carb slide, S3 head with high compression insert, Tubliss front and rear with 6.0 psi in the back.

Great video,thanks for posting!The Uphill Swamp looked like torture. It seemed like the tubliss system working was working well. After watching a few videos of KTMs, it seems like the front ends are constantly moving around because they don't turn worth a darn, unlike your gasser which seemed to be stable and turn great.

I raced TKO as well! I was on row 19. I finished one lap in 2.5 hours. That course was no joke, it just didn't quit! When you would clear one obstacle there was no break with some easy trail riding to catch your breath, you just rode right into the next rock garden. In the end though I had a ton of fun and will be back next year.

I just walked it this year. But now I live only 70 miles away so I guess I will be riding it next year.

I'll trade training ideas with you next year Moto - there are some aspects I will definitely change to better prepare for that event.

Def, will have to come out there for next years TKO Event and walk the course with you guys.
What a magnificent piece of property to ride on and hold this event.

Check out this drone video of the TKO Event.
Shows the "Vertigo Spiral" with #1 Cody ripping it!
Love the Enduro Cross sections and the various rider techniques used to negotiate the multiple obstacles and features.
Def, a 'must do' in every GasGas Riders schedule!!

The spiral was so cool! I was beginning to wonder if it was ever going to end though. Lol
