2023 NRA Amateur National XC Championship AM Quads

I raced the NRA Amateur National XC Championship in the AM quads and it was a blast. I raced 40B/C so was planning on coming in last but ended up 6th out of 13. Had a great day overall, had no issues, track was rough but also fast so getting on the gas for 2.5 hours caused a lot of pain the next day.

Great job on voiceover! Look forward to your videos when they come up! Stay after it sir!

[@Team2Gils]

Thanks man!

[@valet132011]

Looks like a fun track. Love seeing the raptors out racing

[@Team2Gils]

Thanks man! Yep, the track was a lot of fun for sure.

Good camera pov, enjoyed the show

[@Team2Gils]

Thank you!

Way to go Rick, great commentary and camera work. You are smart racing at your pace. I most likely would shoot out like a rabbit and then find myself pulled over to the side heaving my guts out and lose more than I would gain. I like the way you explain your decision on which route to take.

[@Team2Gils]

Thanks man. Have to finish in order to have a chance to win, over riding can give you the edge but very risky, easy to tag a tree or damage your bike, then it'd over.

[@j.need4qlife483]

Ya, no kidding. I find it more exhausting trying to get unstuck. However, there is a thrill to finishing a challenging race. It is an escape for me.

[@Team2Gils]

Boy, getting stuck really zaps your energy. Always thankful when spectators help me

Nice job Rick.
Was this the old Limestone GNCC location?

[@Team2Gils]

Thanks John! Yes, I believe this is the Limestone track

[@ononewheel7]

@@Team2Gilsya looks familiar i raced it a bunch back in the GNCC days. You should give flex bars a try it will help you big time with fatigue during the race and afterwards.

[@Team2Gils]

@@ononewheel7 Oh nice. Yeah I run the precision shock and vibe set up and have been happy with them.

[@ononewheel7]

@@Team2Gils ya those are ok i tried those before the flex bars. The flex bars is a much better setup if you tired them i think you would thank me 🤣🤣

[@torturedskull]

Nce job. What settings do you use on the bgopro to get that much time? I'm using goprp 11 1080/60 and only getting about an hour and 15

[@Team2Gils]

Thanks! I just use 1080/30.
