Malta Dirt Track

These pics are from Malta New York a few years ago. I went down there thinking this was a half mile track, it isn't. I think it's a 1/4 mile around the inside. Fast and rough, I broke my ankle in the first practice but since it was a long drive down there I decided to race through the pain.
I ran the XT in whatever Vintage class they had, and the CRF450 in some senior class.
They were both fast classes and I never got the final results because I was in too much pain to stick around and wait for the promotors (Electric City) to tally results.
I'm sorry I can't remember the photographer to give him credit, I found these on the web much later. I do remember this race, bad start and picking my way through the back of the pack on the XT500.
The Senior race was a blur, really fast and hairy.


Wish I knew whether I got past #611!
