Sounds like both of you just need to keep doing what you've been doing and you should be just fine at the end of the year too.

Congrats to both of you, and all of the other awesome racers here in UT. Hopefully one of these years I'll be able to count myself as one of the fast ones. Now if I can just get all of the sandbaggers to move up so that I can get some wins I'll be doing a little better. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll ever hear the end of it from my son. He turned expert (33 wins) just 18 months after he started racing. I just crossed the year mark with only 1 win to my name. Little show off just needs to build his confidence and realize that he can hang with almost anyone in his group, so he can pick up some more points.

Yes ! You may not know but Chris ended up NAG 11 last year being only like 27 points short of NAG 10 of which those not familiar with NAG points you basically earn 40 pts a position with Grands being double pts. And those of you who watched it saw that Chris had one position slip though his fingers on the last straight :x :x He was that close. Hopefully Both Chris and Brent get it this year :D :D They are both ripping it up. I love watching their races as well as telling people yeah thats right they are from HOME :lol: :lol:

I also got to honk the horn for two other Utah riders ripping it up right now and keeping in mind what Brent said "Its still WAY early in the year" BUT Hayden Brown all though aging up in Desoto is still sitting NAG 1 and NAG 2 and Hunter Brown coming home from Desoto with another win will put him back to NAG 1 on cr and NAG 4 on class. Both boys with National Wins (expert and cruiser) early in the year gets our hopes up for a good year :D :D

Bye the way, when i use the word "bagger" when Chris and Brent are concerned i'm paying them a huge compliment! We (Utah) may have the most 36+ national level contenders then any state! And for poor Hunter Brown...he should be wearing the stars and stripes on his back this year...not too sure how "legal" the move in the last turn was on sat.(he was leading when he got pushed up)I know Wayne just chalked that one up to "a learning experience" and Hunter WILL NOT LET THAT TYPE OF THING EVER HAPPEN AGAIN!!! MAYBE HE SHOULD SIT DOWN AND TALK TO JONAS HARMON (FOR SOME PUNTING SKILLS) EIGHT-ZERO-ONE

Brent,
Thanks Yeah its been a good start to the year ! The kids are kicking it off good as well as the Team ! Team is sitting I think like 3rd. However Its WAY early in the year and there is still lots of hard work to be done! And as far as you say the "Orange & Black" Jerseys being out front and in top finishes a lot this year we'll I'm thinkin you are going to have to slow down or put one on !!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: JK love ya Scott & Ron :lol: :lol:

New York Steve,
Thanks for your kind words and watchin the boys rides in Desoto ! Hunter :x was more upset then I was. That Gold metal was his he got a gate and lead to the last turn and got the rug pulled out from under him :x :x Its ok because he learned from it and stopped the same move the next day to bring home a win ! :D :D All though Hunter still did bring home the Bronze (3rd) and Hayden did bring home the Silver (2nd) oh and also I don't know if you picked up on the fact that Hunter made the main and got 6th in the 12 and under cruiser class (at 9 yrs old) with Hayden :D :D I wish we were seeing more of you out there. Thanks

And Chris is now expert! Congratulations! You've really pushed me to become faster and smoother. At least we won't have to deal with Mr. Consistent on the gate anymore! But still have to worry about everyone else and of course the "Mantis"!

Yep, the ABA revoked Chris Clifts' bagger license after a convincing win saturday in Oregon. On sunday, he looked really good in a tough 41x class. Expect him to do some damage in there this year.

I guess that means that Barton is promoted to the office of head bagger, and I'll nominate Locotone for vice bagger (he also won on saturday)
