That is AWESOME Budman. I'm going to have something for you and the others too. Got Darrell at photographicdesigner.com working on it.
 
I get to see my oldest Daughter this weekend in Santa Rosa. She moved to LA last month. Otherwise I would be in Redding this weekend for sure. Brenden wants to do some SMUSA too and some MX also. Looks like we're going to have a busy off season. :ride :teeth
 
Dean, I have some pics for you. will email them to you when I get back home in a couple of days
 
:thumbup:ride

Awesome, Simply awesome... Man they need to weed the kids out to different classes, obvious some of the back markers endanger the the rest IMO
 
:thumbup That was fun to watch, Thanks for sharing :) Those auto motards must be a hoot to ride, I love it! :ride
 
You have no idea John, it's down right scary at times. The NCminiGP is gone and the people that are starting up a new series are going to do exactly that for the minimoto bikes (pocketbikes) so things should be much better. The traffic did cost him the Blata cup win in that video though.

Thanks Manimal. Brenden is looking forward to racing the Metrakits next season. Not sure if we'll still run the Cobra or not but he LOVES it. He and Rocco had some great battles in both Blata and in MiniGP youth this year. Brenden won a couple but his lack of professional training and track time really showed and Rocco came out on top must of the time. Hopefully we'll be able to get to the track more next season. Brenden will be on new bikes and I'm sure it will be a transitional season for him but he's a quick learner so I'm sure he'll do well.
 
Brenden and Dean

I am proud to be such a small part of your team again for 2012, I am happy to say that continuing to support Brenden and Team Ketelsen is more fun for me than I think it is for Brenden. Watching his progress, triumphs and losses, seeing Brendens determination, professional attitude and will to just better himself and others, is an inspiration to me.

Here is to 2012, and a challenge to everyone to put a sticker on Brendens Bikes. Hey, I am just drop in the bucket with sales less then $1000 last year, but it has never been about that, it is a passion, it is a love and I hope someday we can be a part of Brendens over all success in the future.

So the Challenge, if I can do it, how about you?
 
Thank you John for the kind words. It's people like you that make Brenden's dream possible and we appreciate each and every one of you. Thanks also for throwing out a challenge to all the other BARFers. Here's hoping all will consider even just a small donation towards helping Brenden chase his dream of becoming a Pro road racer.
 
No Worries Dean, I figure it is like the power of 10, 10 people tossing out $10 a month, Well that pretty much helps you guys out a lot. That is all it takes, $10 a month through the season.
 
Those vids are too cool... big BIG BIG :teeth

This is so true. If we could get just 50 people to do exactly that we could make all the norcal races. Each race weekend that's what it takes for fuel, food, lodging and race entries. 100 people and we could actually fund most of the season with stuff like tires, engine rebuilds (in the process of 2 of these as I type) gearing and sprockets, Gloves, boots, helmet sheilds, misc parts, track days and ect... That's why each and every little bit of help is so important. :ride

Brenden put up a good fight againts Rocco. If the traffic had been a little different Brenden could have come out on top. That's racing though and Brenden kept a positive attitude through out. I love Brenden and Rocco's sportsmanship too, so cool.
