- The Goodtimes 450 is a relay race with teams of 1-4 riders, racing for 450 minutes on a course that included a little bit of everything in off-road dirtbike racing. This video includes my first 2 laps and my 10th and 11th lap(around the 5th hour of racing)
Our team, "Shift Happens," finished 1st in the Fairweather Class (35+) and 6th overall on the day. not bad for a 3-man team that averaged 47 years old.
Thanks for watching!

You nailed that start!
My favorite part is the commentary and "Whoooahs" going in to turns too hot 🤣😂
Nice riding, looks like fun!
Thank man! It was a fun one!
My first day at that track about 3 weeks ago, some guy named Brandon took down my info and said he was organizing a race, I believe it was this one or one similar as I remember he said there would be teams. I'm just getting back into dirt riding (in my 50's now) after being out for 20+ years. That "enduro" stuff is out of my league at the moment as I'd kill myself on one of those tires or logs! Looks like fun though.
The team races are a blast! No pressure, just fun. You might consider TORCS or TX2 if you live in central Texas. They have 50+ classes from beginner to expert. 2 great series as well. I'm 48 and race this stuff all year. 👍
@@jeremyschlegel Hey! Thanks so much for the information!!! I've seen some of the TORCS races as well. I'm good as long as I don't have to climb over huge logs or stacks of tires (you made that look pretty easy!). I definitely would like to start out beginner in some hare scrambles but I haven't had much luck finding information in the Austin area. Just FYI, I am about 1 hr from Murphy's, Lone Star, Spoaks (been riding there and Creekside......which is nealry 2 hrs away). I've been getting back into riding the moto tracks. Do you know anything about CTOR? The guy seems nice but it's $250 for a full year membership, it's June now and he still wants to charge me $220! Some say it's worth it, some say it's not. Thanks again, any info is greatly appreciated! Great riding BTW!
@brutus6328 Thanks! CTOR is fun if you don't mind a lot of rock. I ride there occasionally with some buddies that have memberships. Only 2-3 times a year though and it's the closest spot to me besides Lonestar and I don't ride tracks much anymore. XC is much more fun and safer IMO.
Checkout Jeremy King for a lot of CTOR vids. He rides there a lot.
@@jeremyschlegel A lot of rock? That's the last thing I want! LOL I live only 20 minutes from Hidden Falls Adventure Park, made the grave error of going there twice when I was first getting back into riding offroad (have had a Harley since age 18.....so lots of time on the road but haven't ridden offroad in 20+ years). It's nothing but rocks and boulders, I fell, smashed my elbow on a pointed boulder, bleeding everywhere, thought I fractured my forearm, and couldn't use my arm for 3 weeks. When (not if) I fall I want it to be on dirt, grass, sand etc! hahahaha. Anyway, I heard there was a bunch of nice easy trails at CTOR and just a few really hard enduro style ones. I still may get the membership as it's really only 45 minutes away and I can ride there any time (I'm a medic and work crazy 12 - 24hr shifts on weekends a lot, so I need places to ride weekdays). Hopefully I can talk him down to $190 or so. He doesn't prorate very well (lol) because he only runs the memberships from January til Dec.I even asked him "So, its' $250 for a year and $220 for 7 months?" he's an old man and doesn't care so he's like "Yep" hahahaha I will check out Jeremy King! THANKS!
