All Revved Up/Mazda Formula X: June 14, 2009 @ NJMP

Headed back down to NJMP for the "All Revved Up" event on Lightning, as well as the "Mazda Formula X" event on Thunderbolt.

We make it over to Lightning, and this Monster catches our eyes immediately, so we have to walk over and talk tot he owner ;D



Making our way through we pass some streetfighters from Crank It Cycles in NYC.














then there was the "beyond absurd" section:





there was a small section of the parking lot fenced off, where Jason Britton's Stunt Team, "No Limit" were performing. As well as some kids riding mini motos.







Jason Britton's stunt bike.





The Duc truck was there, as well as some other dealers/manufacturers as well such as Aprilia & Triumph .



We made our way over to the Go Kart Track to check it out, there were several races through out the day.



















Here's some video of the events.. starting off with one of the track employees rockin' it old school!




We then made our way over to Turn 7 @ Lightning to check out the Vintage race.. which consisted of 5 riders








And then a modern sportbike race, where we watched our friend, Damien get taken out by another racer.
Before that we watched a jackass that blew Turn 7, went into the grass, proceeded to grab a handful of front brake and go down. Then he shows everyone what NOT TO DO when you crash at the track. He throws a little tantrum, throws himself on the ground, then sits up pulls off his gloves, stands up takes off his helmet, ALL WHILE STANDING IN THE CRASH ZONE, and after the corner worker (as well as everyone watching) is yelling at him to move, finally makes his way away from his bike and to the fenceline.

Video of modern race



Late in the afternoon, we finally make our way over to Thunderbolt to see some more 4 wheeled action....



we quickly became bored of watching... and went back to the hotel room to catch MotoGP on Speed. ;D
