Yep I got 3rd.
Had a blast it was fun. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.
Congrats to all competed.

Like to send a BIG THANKS to all my fans. They are the best sponsor anyone could have.

Thanks to Doug and Paul for showing up.
My inlaws even drove down from Wi to watch this one.
We told them it would be the muddiest quad event of the season.

I would also like to thank my biggest sponsor, my wife, Brenda.
Mrs Dooski.
Now where is all the champagne.....oh and my plate....:D

i wasnt going to go to ga. but i had a good finish last sun (top 10) and figure i would try to hit a couple to see if i could stay in the top 10, i will try the sweet talking gimick tonight :)
when you want to leave? i have to work friday and i dont think i could snake out of there early, i checked mapquest and its about 8.5 hr ride
what kind of trailer do you have? i only have a 1 quad trailer, might get 2 on it if we turn them sideways but they wont fit in side, its only a 5x8

I have a 6x12 enclosed trailer. Im trying to get a Fri off.
I have my own business and took MOnday off thinking I was not going to GA.
Then I saw you were over in Lakeland.
BUt we went to GA last year and got there at 2 am and still ran the am class.
Ya I did the same thing did good in my class and now I want to do a few more.
Last year we did 5 GNCC races what a good time.

Mud, Mud, and MUD! What an experience that was. I got a decent start, was probably around 10th going into the first turn, second turn I went a little wide and passed a few guys, went into the third turn and everyone in front of me slid out wide. I slowed down a bit and took it real tight and beat everyone out of the turn. I couldn't believe it; I was in first place going into the woods! I thought for a second that this is going to be an easy day. Well it didn't take long before the little 400 got out motored going down that long strait and it was down hill from there.:D I got stopped solid in one of those ditches by a log hiding in the water and was also hung up behind a few guys that were stuck in the mud a few times. By the last lap I was just in trail making mode. You had to do whatever you could to get thru or around the mud and water. I think that was one of the nastiest races I’ve ever run. I ended up 7th running in the 33+ 4stk C class.

Pete, I forgot that you said you were going to be up there, and you ran in the same class as me. Wish I had remembered. See ya next time!

Got to meet Brian. (nice to finally meet ya man)

I had a good time, don’t think I’ll do it again next year, but it was fun.

Mark

BTW: Does anyone else have a new chain and sprocket set ordered? :D The mud just ate mine up. Got the rear brakes to.

Mark

Oh Man, Can't believe i forgot!

Thanks to everyone that pitted for me. Doug, Brenda, my daughter Cori, and if there was anyone else that I missed please speak up. Great job!

That was cool! Thank you!

I seen you going into the lead Mark that was nice. I was at that gate when you went through it. And you was leading the way. But I seen some got by you on the ride side down that nasty road. But you was still in 5th when you came up that straight away.

I heard her yelling at that guy. " MOVE DOUG MOVE, GET OUT OF THE WAY DOUG" she must have had a relapse of a FTR race or something.

Nice move with flowers.
My inlaws are in town and that the only way I can go.
Shes all worried about the 8 hr drive.
And if I get all smashed up in the race.

Oh well what are women for. IF it wasnt for her I would be dead by now.

Doug - Mark....You guys are to funny!!!! :D

What a course...I have never had to ride through conditions like that and I do not ever want to again. On my second lap, after getting stuck 4 or 5 times....I again came to the lake, and had to wade in waist deep water....a thought ran through my mind......"This is not fun anymore"!!ash: It was definately one of the worst races I have even ran...but there is always next year!!!!!

I would like to thank my WONDERFUL - SUPPORTIVE husband!!! All week he worked on my quad to be sure it was ready, did all in his power to keep me calm and confident before the race, and when it was over he had a hug for me...after I took a shower... :rolleyes: LoL!!! Thanks Phil for all you do...ALL YEAR ROUND!!!!!

Also, thanks to everyone who supported me and cheered me on!!! It is always apprecited ;)
