Default Re: My new Drakart with Kings @ MX Track

This was the first time i have actually driven this drakart or anything on something other then flat ground at my parents farmstead.

I used to race motocross but got hurt and broke my back. I still love it so instead of 2 wheels im riding 4. So i know all about commitmet and confidence, thats what motocross is all about. i deliberately had the front end low so i could land front wheels first and place them on the down side of the table and the double halfway on one table. i had NO IDEA how blind you are while jumping, its ALL by feel, you cant spot your landing when you leave the ground..unless i cut my floor out! Im not used to not being able to see EXACTLY where im placing my front tire(s) in the air.I had only ridden around that track about 5 min, took a break to make sure things were tight and only rode another 15 min because of rain.

Racing out in California deff sounds the best. But im stuck in KS for the time being, i'd love to be able to make it to some races to prove myself. Im 22yrs old, been paralyzed for 7 years and was at the top of my game in the MX world when I broke my back. And I love the camera, Im thinking i could get alot of publicity for companies. An average man places 5th or a paralyzed ex racer guy places 5th, whos more of a story? It all depends..I'm just saying...if I wanted my company to be seen, with me everybody would see it.
