Update We raced at Thundercross Mx 3rd race in the Fl MX series 4-11-10. They had a good turnout there was 30 riders in Jakes class. He was a little intimidated by the number of riders. Also there was about 25 to 30 two strokes (125-250) at the track .I took as many pics of the bikes I could and posted them on the form. Two years ago there would have only been a couple two strokes. Any way he was about 20th on the start and finished 25th. He kept his speed up so he did better.

This week we were at Dade City Mx #4 in the series. The first moto Jake was about 8th at the start raced really hard did'nt give up and pushed the whole race. Second race we had RAIN did ok we left after the race so I'm not sure where he finshed but alot of guys went down and Jake kept it on two wheels the whole way.

Hello everyone were still here. Well we are in 5th place in the seires and we missed the last race cause Jake jumped in the water off a boat and cut his schin on some oysters and cut deep. But he is healing well. The last two races he was in we have seen good inprovement,his starts are way better and he is finishing towards the middle. One thing noticed alot of 250 two strokes we are looking for one for next year. Here are some pics from the last two races.

Well the season is over Jake went into the last race 5th place in the overall points in the 250C class. There was a good turn out, 24 riders. We went Saturday for all day practice and worked on some stuff it really helped. Also on saturday parked next to us was a couple of former national Pros,Monte McCoy and Steve Martin they raced in the late 1970's and early 1980's. They came over and talked to Jake and were really nice. Anyway Jake rode as good as he has on the 125,he battled two 250 2t got passed and passed them back fought the whole race to finish 11th place overall and that was enough to move him into 4th place overall in the series. It has been a fun year and it ended on a up note. On 9-26-10 he will be racing in the Florida Gold cup at Gatorback MX he has'nt raced at that track yet it should be fun. I raced there in the 70's and 80's one of my favorites. I wish everbody a good year and thanks for following us this year.
