Friday Flashback:
Back in 2009 we made our
first stop at Leesville Motorsports Park and
Stephen Reed took the Overall and XC1 class win on a Suzuki RM250
followed by Stephen Sturges (KTM) 2nd XC1 and
Kevin Hutchinson (KAW) in third. You'll
have to watch the video below
to see a podium picture.
Here's a brief preview of the FUN coming up at
Rnd 1 of the 2012 LACC Series. Top area mx
racer Adam Cedillo from Ville Platte, LA and
bonus point worker Rodney Jones (& another
unknown rider) were riding late afternoon so out
came the cell phone camera...as you'll see we
made some new trail sections and the mx track #2
in dirt pit was slowed down...no more turning
the two small tabletops into one big double (as
shown by Trampas Parker at the beginning of this
2011 video with 775 views!)
Husaberg's Nick
Fahringer (left) and Mike Lafferty (below) are
ready for the Nat'l Enduro Round 1 in South
Carolina this weekend!
Fahringer now with Moose. Read full interview here!
Thanks to Jim Barrett in South Louisiana for
passing this on. The Recreational
Trails Program (RTP) is in deep trouble.
Originally known as the Symm's Act, the RTP has
been a major, often single source of motorized
trail funding in Louisiana and across the
nation. If you ride on a public trail in
Louisiana it has been funded by RTP. Without
future funding existing trails will not be
maintained and future trails not constructed.
Survival of RTP is vital to our recreation. RTP
funding ceases March 31, 2012. Please don't put
this aside. RTP will be saved by a grass root
effort of all trail enthusiasts. Please see
this
Press Release.
Transworld Motocross: "We’re only four short weeks away
from the beginning of the East Coast Lites

Circuit/Kawasaki’s Darryn Durham is ready to get
back into racing. This week, Thor Theater caught
up with Durham as he pounded out some laps on
the all-new Lucas Oil MX Park’s Supercross
track."

Winner: Cameron
Ishmael
Monster Energy Kawasaki / Moose Racing's Bobby
Garrison just barely missed the podium at Glen
Helen (WORCS Round 1) finishing in 4th Overall.
"I got off to a great start and starting
pushing hard to stay with Taylor (Robert),”
said Garrison. “I tried to sprint with him
but couldn’t quite run his pace and I started to
tighten up. I’ve been feeling really sick all
day, but I’m happy with my finish and just
really excited to be part of the team."

Supercross Round 4 in
Oakland, CA this weekend!
Our prediction is #1 Ryan
Villopoto will finally stay out of trouble and
get the win. He's been having the fastest
lap times, just needs to get past some bad luck.
"Vurbmoto
teamed up with Skullcandy and headed out to the
legendary Castillo Ranch in Central California
to spend the day hanging out and filming with
Chad Reed and Dean Wilson. This is what we saw."
Watch in HD!
If you listen at the end sounds like more coming
this summer.

following m>selected riders to compete in
The Off-Road Cup in 2012!
Top Pro team: Andy
Beebe, Jason Harvey, and Jake Haddox!
Top Selected Ironman: Stephen Sturges!
Beebe, Harvey, and Haddox had an amazing year
and finished in the top 3 overall in the 2011
LACC Series Championship. They are obviously
fast but also ride smart and consistent. Top
XC1 racer Stephen Sturges is an Ironman Vet
having finished on the podium twice at the 24
Hr. Challenge and has been competing in it since
'08. His most recent result in 2011 was 2nd

participated in the inaugural Off-Road Cup event
so know what to expect. All of these racers are
in very good shape and we are looking forward to
seeing them push the limits for 9 hours
straight!! We are definitely proud to have them
represent the LACC Series and can't wait to have
some fun at Golden Pine Raceway February 25th,
2012! Click on pictures below to see these
talented guys in action (action shots by Shows
