Karen Hamblin joins the girls, and Lori Lombardo sets up to give out transponders. 7:30am Sign-up starts. Think about what you do during sign-up, the questions you may have or issues. Now, 99 other guys and gals do the same. I’ll tell you firsthand how hard these girls work, and although we all appreciate and sing their praises, you just can’t really imagine how much hard work they put in. Once the racing begins, the score sheets are posted, there are last minute entries, bike changes and so on. 9 Hours Later About 9 hours later, the loop needs to be dug up, Jeff and Elaine break down the system, Jeff painstakingly dusts off the components, the girls pack up the show and call it a day. Once Jeff gets home he uploads the results and lap times, so when you get home log onto my laps, your times are there. You can do this because of all the hard work the dedicated score-keeping crew puts in every race weekend.

I have worked with the best, tested virtually every motocross bike make over the past 10 years, and still work hand in had with the Yamaha Testing division. Riding YZs and every other brand of motocross bike, continuing to learn and develop motorcycles and moving Dr.D forward is what I do. Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate that my avocation has also been my vocation. We know the effort that must go into a product for it to perform at a level that exceeds, the admittedly, extremely good stock bikes and ATVs. We put 100% effort into our products and constantly strive to achieve your business.

Furthermore, DRD may be best known for its exhaust systems, but in addition to some well-thought-out accessories like hourmeters, hourmeter brackets, radiator lowering kits, and packing kits, DRD also offers a full selection of motor modifications. >
