Just like comics , walking funny......  Relax people .. U didn't miss madis gras....... I didn't stretch before we went racaing..... yeow!!!     *sniff....   but no one cares

Hilly... your grom on the green monsta!!!  (don't tell her I can't remember her name) Legend..  ....... Killer start like U said. She was watching me huh??? U should have told her to switch off after the start of my races but I see she was copying me by fading backto 3rd & 4th... yes people U can be knackered after a couple of 2.5 min races tapped out.... at least I was. Your daughters class....thats a non competative class huh?? Where'd she end up coming buy your count??

Does anyone at these meets wear those strap on sliding boots/plates. 

No, that's speedway mainly Alison. although some blokes may choose to if they are on a Dirt track GM, Jawa or Godden

Wouldn't you go though a few pairs of mx boots a year, ? being $200 odd for MX boots.
budget blow out 

or is the ground soft over there.

[jimg1au]

Alison
the track at nepean has soft dirt top which turns dusty if not watered a few times a day.

[Devilman]

Just on the 'boot-rooting'  The idea .... no...... the technique required for dirt track on mx bikes is one where your not doing it right if your dragging your leg too much. That said it stil happens alot & I've asked after sliding boots but now I'm not as loose my boots are lasting longer...
