Jody Estes' Clay City - MPOR Race Report (2006)


Race Report: Kentucky Off Road Hare Scrambles Series (KORHS) - Round 8
Rider: Jody Estes - ATV 3rd Overall

The KORHS crew did an excellent job on the ATV course at Mountain Parkway this past weekend. I knew the track would be wide because I had heard that they were going to run quads on a separate track than the bikes. So to start off, job well done.

I had a really good holeshot and got up front as we hit the motocross track. Unfortunately things were fixing to change. About 4 miles in, I turned to the right when I should have taken a left. About two hundred yards later, I found myself turning around because of a dead end. I got back on track a few seconds behind Scott Wilson. Everything was going good as I tried to make my way back up front. I finally got behind Todd Demaree and he was keeping a real fast pace. Everything looked promising until the third lap on a downhill when my front end started to shimmy. Real nice gash in the sidewall will hurt any man’s pride. Well twenty something miles later on a front flat, I was ready to call it a day.

Despite the rough luck, I really enjoyed myself at Mountain Parkway. Once again I would like to thank the KORHS staff along with the landowner for letting us race.
