Atc all the way
Just put a quad from these days and this would be easier.
The enviromental idiots killed this event along with many other famous races that were run in the desert….

I always read about this in the 1980’s
Damn enviromentalist had it shut down.
This was the best race ever.
They should bs ashamed they took this away from people.
a banshee i think

i remember reading about this in the old 3 &4 wheel action and dirtwheels magazines. love the old quadsports, quadracers, 4trx 250xs, and atcs. awesome video.
who cares about rain out there?
I have a hill like that at my house I’m gonna try to go up it after it rains WHICH ITS DOING =] hold on a second…… nevermind i’ll never do that again anyone know where pickens sc is??? I need a ride to the hospital
those sum tuff rednecks
I rode the last 3 BW100’s but they took the 93 crossing out of the last two. I heard due to numerous fan injuries. Last one a fan lost a finger in a chain/sprocket trying to grab and help somebody.That hill was EASY for the first couple of guys. After that it was so greasy and slick, it may as well have been ice. Geat video! I also recommend Bonzai Blackwater and Mud Wars.
lol no way in hell man those hills are hell
wait for it to rain then go out and spin on a hill for 3 hours and try to get up it
no, some damn hippies had it canceled for the enviornment or some shit
its kinda suprising it ever exsisted cuz the whole thing is in a state forestry reserve
trust me man no they wouldnt maybe easier without spectators but those are some of the slickest hills ever riding up one is like riding on grease the ITP tire company even made tire just for this race the terrain is so bad
go to their website if u want the dvd, it is worth it, great video
Dave Coombs was a legend and the greatest course designer ever. As most know, he died, but his legend and spirit lives on through his son-in law, Jeff Russell (of GNCC fame). The man who laid out the course and promoted the greatest race EVER is responsible for the popularity and success we all see today in the GNCC’s and other off road series.
Why do you think so?
