HEY HEY!!! it's been a long time since we've had an update here at Scarred 4 life. With the holidays gone and the season right around the corner, we'll be back with frequent updates.... hopefully.

Over the off season, Scarred 4 life added a new member to the crew, NIck Dichiaro. He's a bmx racer/street rat. You can see him on the team page and in the gallery.

Dave shot down to Egg Harbor, NJ yesterday for the anual Vet's day race. After being off the bike for a couple of weeks, he was a bit rusty in practice but worked out the bugs come race time. With some good gate starts and decent track possition, he finished the day with 2-2-3 finishes in his motos and a 3rd in the main. Thats all for now.

Last week the motocross guys headed down to wildwood NJ for the thunder on the beach race. JT raced 2 classes on both days. In the 450 class, he finished with a 6th on saturday and a 3rd on sunday. In the 250"a" class, he was able to manage a 9th on saturday and an 11th on sunday amongst some very tough competition. Max took home teh 1st place trophy in the schoolboy class and finished on the podium with a 3rd in 250"b" Check for new pics in the gallery.

Dave went up to howel NJ last weekend to finish up his season at the NJ state championship race. After sneaking into the main, dave came home with the 3 spot for the day, finishing 3rd for the year. A few spots shy of his goals, but with his knee injury early on, he's not too bummed about it. he would like to thank all of his sponsors, --

christopher bean coffee

central jersey skate and bmx shop

vengeance clothing

and extra thanks to dave hagedorn, mike charnick, and ryan maginn for keeping his training in line. Jud and Clay from Hyper bikes for letting him use the test track. and most importantlly his familly for thier support, not many wifes are willing to deal with "i won't be home for dinner tonight, i'm having a good day at the track"

OK, lets start with two weeks ago at the northeast regional championship race in woodward PA. Dave shot up there early friday morning, and got settled in his cabin with 28 of his closest bmx racing friends. after hanging in line for registration adn bike inspection, they opened the track for practice. Dave got in a solid 4 hours practice on a beutifull day and had the track dialed. standings were posted and Dave was looking good for a top ten year end finish. Saturday morning rolls in and it was freezing cold and foggy. after the morning practie sessions, the rain rolled in and the race was cancled. the make-up race on sunday was cancled also. they have rescheduled this race for oct. 31 in long island, but Dave will not be able to make it./ you can check a good shot of Dave from friday's practice over on the team page.

This weekend is huge for scarred 4 life, as Dave will be heading to howell NJ for the NJ state championship, and JT, max, and Christian will be heading to Wildwood NJ for "thunder on the beach"

check in on monday to see how everyone did

Sorry about the late update, championship time in these parts, so things are a little hectic.

Last weekend, Dave headed up to howel to get some much needed local points before the championship races. With some great racing in the motos, it was clear that it could have been anyone's race that day. Dave walked into the main with 3-4-2 finishes. having a great gate start in the main, and good technical work throughout the race, he found himself in a three way fight for first entering the last turn. BUT, as the two other riders came together and went down, Dave couldn't avoid the carnage and took a soil sample of his own. He managed to get back up and finish in 5th, but came out un-injured.

Dave will be heading out to woodward PA this weekend for the northeast regional championship. we'll keep you posted

Dave shot up to Flemington NJ on sunday for a state qualifier double header. after making both main events, unable to crack that podium egg, he managed two 4th place finishes for the day. It's back to serious training for the upcoming reginal series championship as well as the nj state championship.

special thanks to dave's sponsor 661 protection, while practicing today, dave went down, smaking his freshly healed knee into the face of the next obsticle. Luckily he was wearing his 661 vegi wraps and didn't feel a thing...... 661 vegi wraps... buy them.

Dave headed out to howell nj over the weekend to get some local racing in. He's been super busy with work these days, so it's been a while since he was on the track. the heat/humidity, his slip in training, and two classes at a small event proved to be a little much for dave. althoughg he felt strong in his first motos for both his class and the pro/am, the short rest between races proved too much, as his performance dwindled after that. He finished the day with a 6-6-5 in the pro/am, and in his class he finished 2-5-3 and pulled a 3 spot in the main event

Dva ewill be heading to Flemington this week for a double header of the NJ state series qualifiers.

A couple of weeks ago, Dave headed up to Hazleton Pa. for day 2 of the northeast regional race. With a good gate start, strong possition, and a little luck, he found himself on the 3 spot on the podium for the day. His knee is still not 100%, but he's able to do a little more everyday and looks forward to getting backl to full training soon.

NEW SHIRTS IN STOCK!!!!!!

Head over to the swag page and check out the new t-shirts. we'll have an actual picture soon, but for know you get the idea. grab em quick, because this was a short run and they are going fast!!

After 6 weeks of no training or riding due to a patellar tendon injury, Dave finally got back to the track last weekend for a NJ state qualifier. Although his skills were ok, he was seriouslly slower than before, and his gate starts were horrible. the best he could manage for the day was a 4th place finish. But he is back on the bike and back to training.

we've started a photo album here at S4L, but we are a little shy on pictures. we have ALOT of pictures of Dave (guess that shows who the pimp of the crew is!!) but we need more of everyone else. we'll be building the gallery so check back often, and if you see us out there, snap a shot and send it in.

April 15 2009-

A few months ago Ryan Magin from bmxstrong.com had asked Dave for a video highlighting some of his strength training. Although it took a long time to put together a 2 minute video, Dave finally finished!! You can see the video as well as some kind words from Ryan in his video at this link http://www.ryanmagin.com/am-i-wrong/

be sure to leave a comment telling everyone what a pimp Dave is while you are there!!

better late then never!!

A little late on this update, sorry about that.

Last week, Dave shot up to Howel for CJ BMX opening day. The weather was awesome and the turnout was great with 40 motos!! not too shabby for a local. After flipping the gate in practice, holding onto the bars became a painfull task for Dave. However, He's the kinda guy who eats nails for breakfast, and wasn't about to leave without racing. He was able to sneak into the main with 4-3-3 finishes in his motos, but could only manage a 6th in the main. In the pro/am race, he rode the bubble with consistant 5ths, just outside of a spot in the main.

Dave will be hitting day2 of the northeast regional in Egg Harbor this weekend. keep on the lookout for how he did.

Kenny has shifted gears a bit since his injury last season. He's been able to look back on his injuries and laugh, and he's sure that you can too. He's so sure, that he has started doing some stand-up comedy. At the end of last month he had his debut at the Helium Comedy Club in Philly. For all of you who missed an awesome show, we have you covered. here is the link to Kenny's act http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPyf-hTKC0E&feature=email

Dave headed down to Egg Harbor this past weekend for the annual Jack Frost classic. With some very stiff competition, he was only able to manage a 5-4-4 for the day. This was a good race for him to dust the cobwebs off, and see where he needs work. He also spent a few minutes doing a little interview/bike check with Crazy Al Cayne. you can head over to the bmx section of http://www.cac-tv.com and check it out, or the direct link is http://www.cac-tv.com/2009/03/jack-frost-dave-pulaski/ As it turns out, Dave is a better racer than he is an interviewer, as he didn't mention Scarred 4 Life, or any sponsors!!! maybe next time.

race season is right around the corner for Dave, so here is what's happening...

"It's been a busy off season. with last season's injury, and a less than average showing in the championship race, it took me a little while to get my head screwed on straight.

After 3 years, i will no longer be riding for Steel MX eyewear. when the time came to renew my contract, theyy weren't interested.

This upcoming season i'm looking forward to working with some new sponsors, and some old ones. I'll be getting my java fix from the good guys @ christopher bean coffee. Check them out at http://www.christopherbean.com I'll be getting some support from http://www.odigrips.com and i'll be keeping my head intact with 661 protective gear, so go keeep your head safe http://www.sixsixone.com I'll be keeping hydrated during the race with a new sports drink from xcel nutrition, check them out @ http://www.xcelnutrition.com . For the second year, i'll be riding for Vengeance clothing, you can check them out over @ http://www.vengeanceclothingltd.com And lastlly, after considering a few offers from some teams, i have decided to ride for some friends at central jersey skate and bmx shop. I've know the team manager for a whle now, and when he asked me to be on the team, it made my decision pretty easy. check out the stor @ http://www.cjskate.com I'd like to thank direct link, sunbru action sports, and kaos bmx for thier offers. And a big thanks goes out to the guys who are keeping mt training on track, Dave Hagedorn, Mike Charnik, and http://www.ryanmagin.com

dave headed down to Egg Harbor for the NJ State Championship last weekend.

straight from the horses mouth--

"well, the championship race was yesterday, and even though i was feeling good, i'm still not where i was before the injury. A couple of more weeks and i would have been in prime form, but i didn't have a couple more weeks!!! i struggled with gates in my motos, but got a little better each time as i got more comfortable. In the main, i had a great gate and was in a fight for first, but rubbed tires and had to back down to avoid falling. I quickly went from fighting for first, to trying to hold on to 4th.had a strong second straight and was back in the mix. A bobble in the third straight kept a podium finish out of my reach, as i crossed the line in 4th. It was good enough for a 2nd over-all for the year, but i would have liked to finished a bit stronger in the championship race.

thanks to www.vengeanceclothingltd.com and www.steelmx.com for sticking by me when i was down with injury. these guys are both great--please check them out when you get a chance. A special thanks goes out to Chris Whiley for snapping some shots for me at the race. And thanks to www.xcelnutrition.com for picking me up for the remainder of this year and the full 2009 season

taking a week off to rest my brain, then it will be back to training for next year. i plan to add a little mountainbike racing into the mix next year as well.

Dave went up to Howell on Sunday for the last NJ state qualifier. Although he had some good gate starts and a strong first straight, the long lay off from the broken collar bone became evident in the technical 2nd and 3rd straightaways of the howell track. Dave was able to sneek into the main and hold on to a podium spot, finishing in 3rd for the day.

Dave has been picked up by Xcel nutrition for the remainder of this season as well as the full 2009 season. check them out here http://www.xcelnutrition.com/

There are some new pics of JT and Kenny from the wildwood race. check them out on the team page.

kenny is still recovering, but doing well

Dave hit a state qualifier in Egg Harbor on Saturday. after two months off the bike, it was clear that his gates and skills were a bit "off". he was able to pull it together when the gate dropped and won all three of his motos, giving him a run in the main. As he entered the last turn in the main, making a move for third place, the time off really showed. Both of dave's thighs cramped up, leaving him to coast the entire last straight, watching 3rd and 4th place slip away, leaving him to settle for a 5th.

Kenny is out of the hospital and is begining his recovery from home.

With fall and winter right around teh corner, we are going to have a sale in order to make room for hoodies. Be sure to check out the "swag" page for details!!

This weekend Kenny and Max headed up to englishtown for a race. Kenny got caught in a pile-up due to some poor flagwork by the track officials. He suffered 9 broken ribs, a broken collar bone, a collapsed lung, and will be wearing a "halo" for the rest of this summer. be sure to hit the contact page and wish him well.

On a possitive note from the weekend... Max was on fire!!!! he took 1st in both motos and the #1 spot overall in the 250b class!!

that's all for now

Dave headed out to Pottstown PA this weekned for rounds 4+5 of the NJ state series and Hyper pro/am series.

In the first moto of the pro/am, he went down hard in the second turn, breaking his collar bone for the fourth time. He plans on just rolling the gate at the upcoming races he needs to qualify for the end of year titles, as he should be back on the track just in time for the championship races.

that's all for now

Last weekend the motocross guys headed down to wildwood NJ for the anual "Thunder on the beach" race. J.T. came home with a 6th and a 3rd for the day, while Kenny stayed within the top 5, with 2nd and 4th place finishes. Max tweaked his previouslly injured leg, and while he is up and walking now, we'll know more next week.

Dave will be getting some support from Vengeance clothing this season. check them out on the links page when you get a chance.

Dave was in Egg Harbor Saturday for the opening round of the NJ State Series as well as the Hyper Pro/am. Dave hung with the pack in the Pro/am but couldn't break into the main. With no rest between his Pro/am and his expert class motos, He did manage a 3-3-2 in his expert motos earning him a spot in the main. Dave was able to put it all together when he needed to and squeezed out a hard earned win in the main, taking the skinny #1 for the day.
