Bet team yellow is already looking to change the rule book to try to get Yamaha banned from this type of activity in the future!

The Soo I-500 was the same weekend and the purse for this race was $500 for Pro class. Am I supposed to be impressed? Looks to me that Yamaha had to run some small, grassroots race with their factory riders to place as well as they did. Let’s wait and see how they do in a real USCC terrain race when they get off the lake ice and into the bumps and race against their factory competition. Really doubting the results will be so rosy. But hey, I killed it in my son’s pre-school b-ball tournament. A few of us parents trounced the kids. I’m going to post it on You Tube!
