For those who want the low down. It stayed pretty dry for the most part on the top and at the bottom, but those two rock berm drops were pretty much sloppy mud fun. Wasn't conducive for the best of time, but it was doable. All in all it was much better than last years conditions.
Everyone who didn't come missed out for sure.

thanks to george and chop and the massanutten crew for another great race! new timing system seemed to work well and the racing actually ran ahead of schedule!
i capped off a weekend of great fast practice runs with a horrendous crash in the first rock section. my hand slipped off the grip halfway through and i had my first taste of ground all weekend. i'm home rockin the elevation and ice pack.
great seeing all of you out there!

such an awesome race! Awesome management, great promoters, cool goody bag. Cant wait until next year.
Downhill race on a Saturday? Damn I shoulda' went.
I definitely have to give props the Massanutten staff up there doing their best to fix that river. Fun first race for sure! Cant wait for the Open.
All pictures are uploaded now. I separated Saturday into practice and race galleries. Should have at least one picture of just about everyone.
edit: as of May 11th the galleries are split into cat's for easier viewing

if anyone knows who racer 89 was could you let me know. thanks
great pics tom and dj! 
race was a blast as usual although i had a much better time this year after boosting my confidence in riding wet rocks over the past year....last year was just plain scary at times.
i only snagged a few random pit pics:
butch probably telling stories about naked guys running on trails
the view from my "tent" on race morning
andy D's gorgeous M6

thanks to steven trottier for snagging a quick vid of me on my race run:
Thanks to Massanutten for putting this on! It was really well organized and I had a ton of fun after I stopped popping tires 
It was I, DJ Trilliam, aka Will Washam. Big ups to the shutterbugs for the sweet pics. I'm glad my improptu race kit got captured in action

Not 17 yet.
Pretty sure Neko is only 16 - Neko had a super fast race run even though he got held up a bit by another rider.
Thanks
rich
man, Neko is finally starting to look older now...isnt he still 17?
Neko turned 16 on 2/19/09.
He has grown a bit. Six feet tall and nearly 175 lbs. His training program puts him into the gym twice daily and he eats like it's his job.
this wouldnt happen to be his old man would it?Neko turned 16 on 2/19/09.

Considering almost all of his posts are about Neko, he is either his old man, or
someone who his old man should alert the authorities about.
Before my race runs both last year and this year, I watched the pros and Jr. X's through the upper rock garden, and both times Neko was clearly the fastest guy through there. He almost ate it this year after bunny hopping that gap and landing on some slime, but he threw this crazy body-english move to save it and didn't even lose any momentum, much less slow down. My GF was there next to me and snapped this pic of the save:

Massanutten is the best resort for racing all around, plus 2 BBQ places right by the mountain, sold!
I wish Massanutten had more than one race.
Huge thanks again.

Do the Hoo Ha later in the year. Plenty of downhill racing, you just have to do some uphill racing at the same time.
