My First Miami Garage Race.

On July 31, 2010 I joined my first Garages Race in Miami. Hosted by the Miami Longboarding Crew.  I got there around 8:30pm a bit early. As more people started to arrive i noticed it was going to be a good race. I was there to represent Tampa Longboarding society. The race started around 10:30pm and their was alot of spectators and 20 Racers. I placed 6th places. I could have a better outcome if i didn't have to do the same slow garage twice. The race was based on points 1st place get 4 points, 2nd places get 3 points, 3rd get 2 points, and 4th get 0 points. The race had 1 bridge and 5 garages.  Got first on the Bridge (1st heat) the next 2 heats i got fourth the next 2 heats i got first and the last heat i got third. Race ended at 3:30am alot of prizes were given out. Had an awesome time cant wait for the next event. ill be ready for sure.
