NASDAR Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) Can't wait! I'll be bringing one more this year: my stock one from last year and my new 125 Lifan build. I also have a buddy that is bringing his stock 70, it is spider man themed and can be seen on DRATV's photos labeled " Spidy". He built it for his grandson in Utah , thats why he didn't make it last year. His grandson let him borrow it for the winter months so he can attend the regatta this year!

Throbbin Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Shouldn't we have the show and shine at the beginning of the regatta while most of them are still shiny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 Shouldn't we have the show and shine at the beginning of the regatta while most of them are still shiny? It's not necessarily a show n shine. It's more of just a show. The guys that have show bikes don't race them anyways and have them polished up on the sidelines sitting and waiting for that part. It works best with the schedule because otherwise we'd have the opening, then the show then it would be lunchtime already and we would have not even worked up an appetite.
