  • amazing

  • The kids good with everything except the u turns. He's slowing down way to early and now switching gears. He needs to get as close as he can to that u, shift his gears down to 2nd, it will lock his tires and when it does that, he should turn his handlebars, and it should whip him around, then switch to 3rd and powerhouse it. Lol hope I helped

  • needs to shift down in corners i can hear the the bike boging

  • nice kid ;)

  • That's awesome!! You sound just like my husband. He does the same thing with the knuckles to all the kids at the line. Sometimes he gets the strangest looks from the other dads... Sometimes another rider's dad will stop by my son and give him a short pep talk too. It's great to see that. We have no tolerance for negativity. As long as he tries hard, doesn't give up, has a little fun, and respects everyone else, we can't ask for more than that from a kid! =) Best of luck to you guys!!

  • @deannagrn BEATIFULL!!!!!!

  • You HAVE to be joking!? >: [ That's so horrible!! How could someone do that to a kid!!??  Like you said, Karma! I'm sure he'll make it next time. Gonna have to keep the bike in a locked trailer to keep it safe. Everyone we've met in the motocross community has been so nice! Guess there will always be those you can't trust. I love when you said to him "HAVE FUN!!" That's what we tell our son too! We don't want him to be an aggressive rider. I will have to check back for more vids! =)

  • @deannagrn NO NOT JOKING! Too cool you heard that! Not too many dads say that.... I personally go down the line every gate and get knuckles from EVERY rider and say "get some!" and tap knuckles! It's my way of saying to each kid that I'm paying attention to them ... each kid is unique and "figures it out" at their own pace... It's my way of be "dad" to each one.... I'm also the "go to guy" for parts... lol oh well.... That's racin'....

  • @deannagrn You have to understand that at this level.... NO one is going to give a ghetto kid on a 2004 a chance....period! Think about it.... IF he made it....  What would happen.... it's purley economics and sales... I was "hopeing" for top 20.... IF that happened what would be the fall out... against 2011 bikes... ? You make the call.... and it's NOT AMA... it's the competitors PARENTS!!!!

  • @wmhoneybucket I see what you mean... It's just so upsetting! He's so talented. I hope he gets recognized by the right people someday and he makes it all the way! Some people have no morals =( Good luck to you guys!!

  • Very impressive!! He's so fast and very consistent! My son is 8, started riding last year. He's still on a 50, but we just started practicing with the 65 yesterday. Like jpissabella, I hope my son can ride half as good as yours when he's 11! Keep up the good work. I bet he made Regionals!! Good luck at Nationals! =)

  • @deannagrn Thank you for the "kudo's".... Unfortunately someone sabotaged his bike at Qualifiers even though he advanced to Regionals we were unable to make it.... Found a "brake resevior cap screw" in the engine :( Some dads are just ruthless! Oh well? Give it a couple years... Karma... :(

    Sounds to me like you 2 need to get together.... 8 yr olds pushing each other! That's how it's done! Unfortunately you 2 live quite away apart from what I can tell. LOL

    Just make sure it's FUN!!!

  • @deannagrn Not to go on a rant... But have your little man on the 50 watch some of my other vids from younger years to give not only him but you an idea of were he should be progressing to... my best wishes to you and him to get where HE wants to be... Remember it's all about him... Never forget that!

    PEACE!

  • @wmhoneybucket I just figured out how to use the reply button =) I was just looking at some of the older videos, and will definitely have my son watch them. Your boy looks like he's having so much fun. That's why we do it too. Something he gets to enjoy and family time together! We load up the camper and spend the weekends at the track. When not at the track we're working on bikes or spending time in our field practicing.

  • rocket.

    

  • Hookit .com

    

  • hello from australia, the boy can ride . i had to watch it twice. my boy is 8 and just starting to jump doubles. if he gets half as good as that i will be proud. you have done fantastic with your boy . good on him

  • @jpissabella Thank You!!! I appreciate the compliments!!! Just put a new top end in it and ran a different track ... Footage will be up soon... It's easier to load it to youtube and link it to his website than upload it direct.... Check it!

  • shift the bike

  • Dang this kid is fast! Is that a mod bike?

  • @Zack241mx No, not mod, just a little head work, thinner base gasket to raise compression to 175 psi, striaght race gas and tall gears 14/48. FMF Fatty pipe and silencer. Thanks for the comment. I am very proud of him and his accomplishments to this point at a relitively young age. (11) :-)

    PEACE!

  • @wmhoneybucket Ohh I see. Well either way he's got a good road ahead of him in the motocross world. Very talented. Is he doing Loretta Lynn's?

  • @Zack241mx We are planning on going to qualifiers in May at Washougal. Then we'll see if he makes Regionals. We're going to try, cross your fingers...

  • @wmhoneybucket Will do. Best of luck!! I hope to be there with my little cousin that races as well.

  • Way to go Honeybucket!! Freakin rocket on that thing now! Keep it up and never give up! You're doing amazing!

  • Way to go Daders!
