Gas Gas gets the hole-shot

[AZRickD]

A 12-minute docu-vid on our 2-day enduro event last weekend.

It'll give you a good feel for Arizona racing the www.amraracing.com way (as tight and technical as the terrain allows), although most of what I shot was the faster sections.

Takeaway message: Beware of cholla cactus.

Cacti are the suck. Nice vid.

Nice video Rick!

Thanks, the hardest part (not including finding a stunt double to flatten the cholla), was to get some of these introverted racers to talk on-camera.

Check out my "Globe--All Around Me" video as well.

Our next race is this weekend in Globe, Arizona. It's going to rain (Arizonans don't deal well with rain). Mud is a foreign substance.

It felt worse that it looks.

LOL. Reminds me of the Star Trek episode "Trouble with Tribbles".
