@@christdiedforyou7815 I’m with you on the sand. I’m not much of a fan, although I’m better at it than I used to be. With 3 or 4 of our races every year being sandy it’s something that we have to learn to deal with.

Not yet. I ordered a new battery since the old one was 5 years old. Ordered a new freewheel to swap out that part and still need to check the valve clearances.

@@unlimitedmoto40 man, hopefully it is something simple and you'll be back on the orange soon.

@@jmx7656 it starts fine normally, just not when I’m on the start line of a dead engine race. 😂 I didn’t ride it this weekend due to a small oil leak from a missing gasket. I’ll be back on it this weekend at TX2

@@unlimitedmoto40 I'm hoping I can make the next TX2 race, we will see.

@@roost3d the ride is recorded on my Apple Watch using the built in workout app. I think you can use Garmin too. Then I use an app called Mx Buddy to import the ride and create the track map.

I didn’t see your video yet. What happened?

@@giborex1 just went to your channel and saw the end of the vid. That was real bad. You okay? That was the same place Malory crashed I’m pretty sure.

@@unlimitedmoto40 I was in some pain Sunday and Monday, but I’m starting to feel better. Gotta buy new handle bars and clutch lever (just glad I didn’t break any bones)

@@giborex1 yeah, good thing no bones were broken. It's hard to see what happened from the video. Did the back end just slide out?

@@unlimitedmoto40 There was a root in the bottom of that hole and my front tire came down on it.

@@jmx7656 gotta catch all those sandbaggers in C class first. Lol. Appreciate the support, I can definitely see the difference from last year.

@@MotoAnthony also check out TX2, which is another series that just started in September for two wheels (they’ve been doing four wheel racing for a couple years. tx2racing.com

@@unlimitedmoto40 biggest thing for me is finding stuff in North Texas. From what I've found, a lot of the TORCs races are down by Houston or past Austin

@@MotoAnthony north Texas is different. TORN ended last year and TCCRA is the Harescramble series there and TSCEC is the enduro series that is TX wide. Some people from North TX will come down for TORCS and TX2 for a couple of races a year.

@@jmx7656 just an AMA membership. It’s 50/yr.

Appreciate it. Fun being out there with a new format on a new course.

@@unlimitedmoto40 I watched your other video and saw how open it was, it's was great footage. Hopefully I'll go ride this week hopefully

@jmx7656 yes it was. Usually I’m holding up people in the classes behind me, but not on this course. 😎

@@trueinfidel7321 thank you!! Not sure how I missed you on Sunday. Were you there or maybe left after the kids races?

@@johndepperschmidt8984 thanks John. If you like those, I did some interview only videos last year. Check out this playlist. ua-cam.com/play/PLIBFqRGQ7I9MEOEeA7q5i5mQGsDtf6lLp.html&si=dZZWsxRF1e6hJJUZ

@@roost3d next one is more accessible to Houston riders. Should be fun with a few more racers

New racing series in central Texas called TX2

This is awesome! How far away are the races? I am assuming its the same range as TORCS right?

yes, same areas as TORCS. Round 2 will be in October about 20-30 minutes away from Cole’s Fun Pit

@unlimitedmoto40 heck yeah! Thank you Chris! Also you've been posting some good videos lately.

There was a ride day back in march here as well. Different course with more single track. I have a video of it. I believe they are going to do another one this year.

Thank you, Malcolmik! You going to B next race?

🤣🤣🤣

666 was on the move!!

Last year at Cole’s was so much more fun. Even with the dry conditions, if we had run the exact same course as last year it would have been much better because it was not as tight. The new tight sections, combined with the dry conditions made this one pretty brutal 🤷‍♂️

@@casparhassall8184 the guy I bought the bike had a 1.5 inch lowering link on it. I never took it off. Would that make turning worse?

@@unlimitedmoto40 if the front wasn’t also lowered at the same time that would make your bike pitch upward. Same as having too much sag. It would make it more difficult to get weight on the front in turns. I would remove the link and put back to standard as the first step.

@@casparhassall8184 I’m going to try it. Although I love being able to dab easily with the lowered bike.

Thanks for tip. I usually try to do that when I’m in the woods, but wasn’t thinking about it for this drill. 3rd great pinned on this bike is 40+mph and definitely an “oh shit” moment where I’m just thinking about hanging on. 😂

@@unlimitedmoto40 ha mostly I’m guilty of it too. Always easy to point stuff out from the outside in. Not as easy when doing it and trying not to die! Knees back and squeezing will make it feel much more controlled and safer though

Thanks! I’ve been working on getting the front suspension to travel more so I’m more comfortable at speed. Still need to get more comfortable in the corners. Fear factor starts to take over a bit.

Using GoPro 12 for the camera. For biometric and laps/course speed I’m recording with an Apple Watch (Garmin should work too). Then I import that workout data into an app called MX Buddy.

@@unlimitedmoto40 Thank you for the info. guess we just need to learn how to use ours!!

TX2 round 1 is this Sunday

@@unlimitedmoto40 where will that be at

@jmx7656 Lometa, TX

@@unlimitedmoto40 are you racing it? I looked it up, is it a new series?

@@jmx7656 yes. New series. I’ll be there on Sunday

@@99Yeti what’s a brake roll?

@@unlimitedmoto40 sorry I should have put a comma brake then roll

??

@@unlimitedmoto40 good game i mean u tried well

@@Dakshkaushik-wr6et thank you. This was lap one. I hit that inside line on laps 2 & 3.

@@loganbrew will you be at the tx2 race next week?

@@unlimitedmoto40 Will start into the race circuit if/when my young son wishes to. He just started riding this past Spring. Next Sat is members trail work party at Zars. Will ride Zars or Spoaks on Sunday.

@@loganbrew I’m trying to get my lap time down as well. I want to try a full lap at race pace and see if I can get to 25mins.

takes some guts to make a run at it!

@@jmx7656 yes, I agree. Keep getting better, little by little

I had a similar thought during practice of how am I supposed to race and pass people on this track. 😎

I’ve watched several videos of guys coughing during the race 🤢

Lol, my right hand felt naked after that. It was a struggle. And it wasn’t fitness related. I believe it was a skill thing. More experienced, faster riders still going to go fast through there.

The problem for me is that the trail is already downhill and then add about a 1ft drop into the rut. Makes me a little skittish to be aggressive.

@@CrazyBadPiper thanks! probably going to start focusing on hot laps instead of endurance after Cole’s. I noticed when I watched it back that I was holding back a bit in reserve.

Wow you are doing a lot of training. Love the commitment!! 💪

@@casparhassall8184 thanks. really enjoying it.

@@unlimitedmoto40 How is it that I'm retired and you're getting way more seat time than me? I'm doing something wrong....hahahaha

@@CrazyBadPiper haha. Good question. My seat time is scheduled so nothing else gets planned on Sundays. Makes it easy.

thanks 🙏 Not one of my best efforts, but I’ve improved a lot since last year

@@amorgan7943 IMO, it’s time for him to move up to C or B. I don’t run the series though so I don’t really get a vote.

His fastest lap at that race was a 16:35. There was only one rider in 250FC that turned a faster lap than that. Yup, I stand by what I said in the video. Doesn’t matter how much experience he has, he should be in C class and if he continues to improve at this impressive rate, B class next year.

what’s your question?

@@trevorjameson3213 it’s so much fun and not very expensive either. What about red river trails? Have you been there? I heard those are the best for that area. Also Barnwell Mtn must be just a couple hours from you.

???

@@10actv nice! Do you have a video?

@@trueinfidel7321 I’m in 40C. The bottom half.

@@jmx7656 thanks. Felt a lot more comfortable with the suspension updates.

I’m not sure. You’ll have to ask Benny. CTOR is the best deal around for riding. Even if you only ride once a month you are still coming out ahead than paying as you go ($30 or $40 per visit) at other places.

@unlimitedmoto40 I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it out there even once a month probably more like once every couple of months and then the call before you haul thing gets me too if I'm going to pay that much for a membership to a place id hate to be told I couldn't ride because there's nobody there. Do you know the best place to get a hold of him so I can ask him a few things I'm in the Facebook group but I can't find anybody around my skill level that's a member to try it out to see if I like it as much as I like hidden falls. It just don't make sense to me to get a membership to a place if I'm going to ride it a few times a year if I don't like it as much as hidden falls based on the videos it looks similar but hidden falls has the big rock shelves and the 4x4 trails I like going down along with the single tracks and they got a little track there for when I get bored if CTOR has similar trails to the 4x4 trails at hidden falls then I might find the membership worth it

And I like riding with my dad but he's got a sport quad and as far as I know they don't allow them there at all I don't like riding alone due to safety and not knowing any members I also don't want to be riding solo most of the time hoping somebody slow is out there that wouldn't mind a riding buddy

@@richToFEn1337 his number is on the website. www.ctortrails.com

@@richToFEn1337 they used to allow quads, but not anymore

Thanks!

You use this recipe?

​@@unlimitedmoto40 i did but i did not invent it. i used this paper as a base: Preparation and thermal properties of Glauber’ssalt-based phase-change materials forQinghai-Tibet Plateau solar greenhouses as the paper sugests i could also be used as thermal regulation for buildings, although it needs good ventilation otherwise you will have issues with condensation. a light breeze is enough and can be overlooked in greenhouses for obvious reasons.

I’ve been riding all summer. Definitely was hot, but lots of fun too.

@@CrazyBadPiper what is more realistic for me is guys in my own class yelling “com’n” “let’s f***ing go!!!” 😆
