I had already been missing a lot of school so my dad decided we would not <\/p>\n\n\n\n

do Friday Practice so I would not miss another day. This meant we had to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

leave the house at 3:15 am in order to make to Texplex in time for Saturday<\/p>\n\n\n\n

morning practice. My dad had the tough part as he had to drive. I just go in <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and went back to sleep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we arrived at Texplex it was still dark. We got unloaded and ready for<\/p>\n\n\n\n

practice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After practice we had the riders meeting. It is always cool how Tex Honors <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Military, Firefighter, EMT\u2019s, Law Enforcement, etc. and then does the <\/p>\n\n\n\n

National Anthem and Pledge The Legends. At Round 8 they had something <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special planned\u2026\u2026. They honored to Military Veterans that race with the <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outlaw Racing Series with full paid entry for their races in the 2022 season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was very cool.                Kyle Bedoow and Justin Moore<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First up for me was the 1000 12+ Limited class. I had to start all the way on <\/p>\n\n\n\n

the outside. I got a good jump in my 2021 Honda Talon but it was not <\/p>\n\n\n\n

enough. I was pushed to the outside and had to take the long way around. I<\/p>\n\n\n\n

was in 8th place. I knew I was going to have to push and make quick <\/p>\n\n\n\n

passes. I got up into 4th and 1-3 were already way out. I was not able to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

reel them in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My second race of the day was the 1000 12+ Stock Class. In this race we <\/p>\n\n\n\n

are the third drop. Womens Expert first drop, Womens Amatuer second <\/p>\n\n\n\n

drop, then us. I got a great jump and took the holeshot. I pushed as hard to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

catch the womens amatuer competitors. I ended up catching them while <\/p>\n\n\n\n

still in a group. It made it tough to get by them. I got lucky and was able to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

make it happen quick. It was great to get a WIN. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For my second race in the Limited class I need to get a way better start. I <\/p>\n\n\n\n

was lined up right in the middle of the starting line. I set my launch control <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and the starter through the flag. I dropped the paddle shifters and launched <\/p>\n\n\n\n

forward. I got boxed in within the first three feet. My start was one <\/p>\n\n\n\n

competitor better in this race. I was sitting in 7th. This was not what I <\/p>\n\n\n\n

needed as Kaden, Jaden and Lane were driving really well. I was able to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

get up to the point where I might be able to start to battle with them and the <\/p>\n\n\n\n

race was already over. I ended up with 4th overall in the 1000 12+ Limited <\/p>\n\n\n\n

class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second race of the 1000 12+ Stock class I was sleeping at the start. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My dad\u2019s words\u2026. I went into the first turn in third place and started to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

charge to the front. After I was leading my class I was already into the <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amatuer Womens class. I pushed my way through them without trying to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

mess up any of their race. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a fun day of racing at Texplex for the Outlaw Racing Series. Time to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

load up and get home. Have to unload as soon as we get home and load <\/p>\n\n\n\n

up for the last round of the District 20 Motocross Series at Rio Bravo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
