KAMLOOPS - You may have watched dirt bike races at Whispering Pines Raceway in Kamloops, but you have probably never seen a race from this vantage point.

In a video published by Oak Tree, a drone is used to follow Blake Watkubsib through the endurocross section of the track during The Big Kahuna event hosted by the Greater Kamloops Motorcycle Association Easter weekend.

What is the endurocross section? Think big tires, fence posts, logs, large potholes, loose dirt and piles of rocks.
