Hi,

Last weekend my good friend Darrin Hill (Hills Cues) won 2 Midwest National Championship Series events in Moto Cross Racing. Going in to the final events of the season Darrin only needed to place 4th in the over 35 year old bracket and 5th in the over 30 bracket.

The old man won both Motos in each event a total of 4 and he won all 4 hole shots coming out of the gates. Darrin won these event because he has been working out every day and his conditioning and riding skills beat them all to the titles.

Congratulations to Darrin and his time and effort he has put into obtaining this awesome goal he set in the spring.

We all know Darrin as a very skilled and professional Cue Maker and Machine Builder. I thought I would share these pics I took of the racing.

Ok Darrin, racing is over! Time to get back in the shop 100% and start pounding out cues.

Now that you have accomplished your goal maybe you should quit while your on top. You have done a great job keeping your self healthy. Broken bones and cue making don't go hand in hand.

Great Job!!!!!!

Congrats Darrin, thats a tough go
.
Motocross has been described as one of, if not the most grueling
physical sports there is. If you don't believe me, try taking a small off road/trail bike twice around a motoX track. It will leave you winded.

MotoX riders train as hard as any other athlete.

I broke my left leg in 4 places once, that was enuff for me.

Next, Darrin will be trying his hand at Free style Moto.
 
WOW , what a great write up thanks Rick. this was a major challenge as I haven't raced in over 15 years ,vary over weight and way out of shape.

Last year was a testing ground , I so struggled to just finish in the top five. so as of Oct last year it was off to the gym 5 days a week all winter long. this summer I kept the training going by running 3 miles a day. so what does all this mean , if you put heart and mind to something you can achieve anything!

That's the exact thing that kept me after my cuemaking dream! I have wanted to do it for years and I'm finally able to make them! Now....if I can just do that with restoring muscle cars....hmmmm.

Congrats on the determination and great outcome with those wins Darrin!!
 
Wow, how summer fly's , its 18 degrees outside now this sucks I want to see more bikinis chicks , hot summertime stuff.
 
This is what I'm talking about real summertime , bikes and babes not 18 degrees.
