Rd 7 was in Panaca Nevada which is 160 miles north east of Las Vegas around 4,500 feet high desert. There were 247 bikes on the line it was a real Hot, Dusty, Long 105 desert miles. It paid regular National points plus some clubs from Idaho, Utha, Nevada and Calif paid local points so it had a big draw. There were 25 guys in my class alone 50 expert. There were only 8 of the 25 who even finished all 3 loops. I finished 5th in class which will lock up National #3 for 2016. With one throw away out of the 8 races, my points would not change if I were to do Rd 8. Which is put on by my club the 100s so it looks like I will be working the race. With that said Rd 8 will be the best one. Every one need to come race Rd 8 in So Calif On a side note this was both a sad and happy day for me. Happy because I will run # 3 next year but sad because it looks like this is my last race on a Italian Husky. Since 2006 when I started racing the Italian Husky I have only 1 DNF but I have 2 National # 1 plates,3 # 2 plates and 2 # 3 plates all on Husky Now I am looking forward to a new TE 300 and another long list of great finishes
