Finke Desert Race 2022 with Six27 Racing - Gasgas MC450F
มุมมอง 10K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Six27 Racing take on Finke Desert Race. Following my crash there last year I was underprepared with 8 months recovery on 3 surgeries. All odds aside, I made it through in 13th outright which gives me something to build on.. It was a hell of a time with plenty of sketchy moments. Enjoy this one 🔥 🎥 - @Taypopo

First shakedown on the Gasgas Mc450f with the desert setup. Freshly back from a knee reco, we rallied the troops and sent it east to find some hard ground near the town of Kalgoorlie, home of the Kalgoorlie Desert Race! Soak up the dust!!

A recent switch to the orange machine inspired a trip to the desert for testing, so we loaded up and headed for Kalgoorlie.. Running the big 500 for the first time was a blast! Thanks to Craig @ Endurowetech for setting up a shock at last minute and Ray Moore Motorcycles for tuning the big girl on the day! Motoring blind into dust to suddenly aqua planing puddles was a blast.. Enjoy...
DEEP WELL RACE 2021, TRACK PREVIEW YZ450F
มุมมอง 11K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Deep Well Motocross / Enduro Race 2021, Alice Springs. This is a sight lap of the track, I tried to run the helmet cam for the race but I was told to take it off due to MA Rules. The track was around 9 kilometres long and at the end of the day it felt like a whooped out GP track! 35 degree heat and some heavy hitters made it tough, although we scored some rain the night before which made the tr...

We loaded up and travelled to Alice Springs from Perth to get some experience on the almighty Finke track before the race in June. It’s completely different to anything I’ve competed in before which made the trip even better! The track was fairly smooth with some nasty wash outs from heavy rain. Thanks to all the locals and everyone that helped out and made the trip so enjoyable. The 2021 YZ450...

    Back in the ...ahem....good ol' days, I did this race on an XT 600 Belgarda (No. Not the pretend TT 600 Belgarda, the real one from Italy). Concussion, dehydration, no skin left on my hands, and a torn right ACL at the 40 K outbound marker. 20 years on and I still think about it as one of my crowing achievements, even though I didn't manage anything more than just finishing. "Just finishing' Finke is generally enough to shut down anyone telling you how hard they race. I can still taste the cordite in my mouth, from when I was a Main Battle Tank Gunner. I can still smell my newborn Children. Every Queens Birthday weekend, I can still feel the XT between my legs and the bars in my hands. This will change your life. This will define some part of you. I wish you the best of luck, this coming race. If I may offer some advice? Scrutineering is extremely thorough. Check your spokes. Leave your front sprocket guard on. Get there early. You'll get a Hospital band on your wrist, once you've done scrutineering. That's how serious this is. Don't worry too much about prologue. Get a good time, but don't go so silly that you bin it, fuck yourself up, and miss the race. Check all your stuff and check it again. I saw a guy tapped out because he hadn't tightened his handlebars.....go figure. Put fuel at every stop. Better to have it and not need it than vice versa. And, don't forget. You're only racing the clock. Once again. Best of luck.

    • @jacksonmcgrath109
      @jacksonmcgrath109 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I feel an 18 rear is a must, you need that extra inch of tyre. I ran 14/44 but if I was to run an mx bike I’d go to 14/42 to get that bit extra. You can definitely feel the load on the box. Scott’s steering damper. 10L tank got me roughly 90kms so just enough for 2 fuel stops down the track
