    ( queue southern drawl )
    Well you'll accept my apologies then kind sir, I was overreacting and I'll have to be sure and visit with you sometime you hear. ( end queue )

    She's a tough balance with the sponsors, they need mentioning, but heck it's hard to do & sound natural & provide emphasis on the sponsors, Chad Reed I reckon does a good job.

    P.S. Once had a g'friend from Georgia, there is something about that Georgia accent & attitude.

    My money says Mrs Axeman. Before Katherine was on the road permanently with Whibs the reports were obviously compiled by someone without a diploma in literature, lol. But it is a credit to Whibs and the team to keep the information flowing. Whibs of course is 'The Genuine Good Guy' deal.

    Race: GNCC Round 6, Lafayette TN
    Rider: Paul Whibley
    Team: JG Offroad, GEICO, Monster Energy Kawasaki
    Bike: KX450F
    Result: 1st


    Round 6 of the GNCC series looked to be a repeat of Round 5 with a lot of rain falling Friday and Saturday. The pits were a mess with vehicles bogged everywhere. Early Sunday there was talk that the morning race and the afternoon races would be combined but by 9am a revised schedule was announced. The morning race would be reduced to one hour and the afternoon race would probably be reduced to two hours. When we lined up and got the track description we were informed that the race would be at least two hours but not the full three hours like normal.

    From the start my KX fired up quick and I emerged from the slop in 3rd behind Jimmy Jarrett and Josh Strang. Early in the lap I had a good line around a hill and took the lead, we swapped positions a lot. The racing was fun. The track was sloppy but it had a rocky base very similar to Loretta Lynns GNCC.

    On the second lap, Josh and Jimmy gapped me a little. Josh had a good line up a hill that Jimmy and I missed. I was struggling to see through my goggles. My Smiths has dealt with about all the mud and rain any goggle could handle. I took them off and with the improved vision I caught back up to Josh and Jimmy quickly. I worked my way past both of them and began to build a lead.
    A splash of gas in the pits and a fresh set of Smith roll offs and I was set. Back out on the track with new goggles I was able to pick up the pace and continued to buffer my lead.

    With two laps to go I put in strong but safe lap times, looking after the bike and making it a great day for the JG Offroad, GEICO, Monster Energy Kawasaki team.
    I am back in the points lead now and plan to stay there.

    Race Results:
    1st: Paul Whibley
    2nd: Jimmy Jarrett
    3rd: Charlie Mullins

    Race Report, OMA Rnd 2 Kentucky
    Rider, Paul Whibley
    Team, JG Offroad, GEICO, Monster Energy Kawasaki
    Bike, Kawasaki KX 450f
    Result, 1st


    Two rounds down and two wins in the bag. I was pretty pumped to take the win after surviving the tough conditions.

    The race couldn't have gone better. My KX fired up super quick from the dead engine start and I nabbed the holeshot and the early lead. The track was really tight with a lot of trees down from a massive ice storm earlier this year and the ground was soft and cutting up fast. I know Jimmy Jarrrett is one of the best in the tight going so I wanted to put in some good laps right off the bat. I was leading the way but in the first mile I came across a part of track that hadn't been changed from the morning race. The tape was still across the trail we were suppose to take. A moment of confusion and lost time let Kurt Casselli into the lead briefly. I moved past him within a mile on a better line around one of the mud holes. Yes, mud holes on the first lap!!
    Once back in the lead I put my head down and tried to create a gap.

    I consistently made time and ran faster lap times throughout the race allowing me to edge away. Jimmy moved into second place but wasn't able to challenge for the lead. I was able to take the win by nearly 5 minutes. I was stoked to win in such trying conditions. The bike worked great and my modified setup for this event worked great. I was able to set up a softer power delivery with a different throttle cam with my G2 Throttle Cam system. I didn't need all the power a 450 can produce so quick in such a tight conditions so I slowed the delivery to allow maximum traction and minimum rider fatigue.

    This is a great way to start my title defense in the OMA series and I hope to continue this form throughout the season.
    Thanks also to Rekluse for the loaded baked potatoes they dished out to all the surviving riders. It was just what we needed after a thrashing on one of Bill Gusses tracks.

    1st, Paul Whibley
    2nd, Jimmy Jarrett
    3rd, Kurt Caselli
