    It seems the down turn in MX is nation wide.

    Where is MX racing down? Everything from the AMA motocross racing perspective is up. The amount of racers is up (from when it bottomed out in 2012), average entries per event are on a three year high point and getting better at AMA events. That being said, average amount of races a racer...

    Best VMD in Years!

    Some pre-entries did not show up but I believe the number was around 380. Which is the highest number of entries in 5 years or so...

    Did ANYONE see an AMA offical?

    If you guys want to bash on me and the AMA... that's ok, I'm man enough to take criticism. I have to do better. I apologize for not being there. I plan on attending Malvern and Briarcliff and hopefully riding (Unless my wife goes into labor probably the weekend of Briarcliff). But let's...

    Did ANYONE see an AMA offical?

    Knox.. this whole back and forth was funny until this sentence... "But clearly colleting cash and handing out plastic #1 plates to old guys that go to one event per year is more important." To answer your question, handing Vintage National Championship #1 plates to our members is important...

    If transponders were free to rent, would you want to use them? or is it stupid to have transponders on Vintage bikes? Thoughts?

    Best VMD in Years!

    Yeah the PA system is pretty weak there at Mid-Ohio. They only use it once a year when VMD happens. I'll add a FM Transmitter to my 2016 Wants list. On that list I already have a PW50 Youth class, more signs for directions (for instance, Staging signs, stay off track signs, etc.), I want a...

    Did ANYONE see an AMA offical?

    I would have loved to been there and rode like I have in past years (if you look at the results, I have a 25+ title to defend). The AMA offices run one event a year... the AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days. A huge fundraiser event for our AMA Hall of Fame, its also the AMA Vintage National...

    Best VMD in Years!

    Thanks for the positive feedback... we here at the AMA don't get a ton of positive feedback on Mondays. Technically we had three red flags, one because some hit the gate and everyone ran over it (not really a gate malfunction), one because we had a guy go down hard in the first turn, ended up...

    VMD Three Moto Format for Motocross

    OK...Here is a totally revised Race Order. This obviously doesn't have the second and third motos but it's just easier to change once the order is set. Give me your thoughts... thanks.

    VMD Three Moto Format for Motocross

    Sorry for the delayed response...I traveled today to Mississippi for a Youth Regional for the weekend and had a meeting with the organizer today. Let me work on the race order and double check to make sure I didn't miss anything. Again I appreciate the responses. We did combine some classes...

    VMD Three Moto Format for Motocross

    I believe that a 81 KX fits within a Evo 2 classes. Evolution 2 – Evolution 2 classes will include bikes with no linkage type rear suspension, no water cooling and no disc brakes. There are no travel limitations. Here is version 2 of the Tentative race order, I appreciate the feedback.

    VMD Three Moto Format for Motocross

    Great thing about a tentative schedule, I've just moved that moto. If you see something else.. let me know.

    VMD Three Moto Format for Motocross

    So here is our VERY TENTATIVE race order. To give you a idea what we are attempting to do. This way you know what times your motos take off and this allows us to schedule the racers around the Trails event. We are attempting to make this event has professional as possible, consistent of our...

    VMD Three Moto Format for Motocross

    So basically during registration on Friday and Saturday morning. We are going to know who competing both Trails and Motocross. We'll take the classes that have participants competing in both and pull them from the race order. Those classes will have timed motos, for instance they will run at...

    VMD Three Moto Format for Motocross

    We've had some concerned racers call in about the Three-Moto format at the Vintage Motorcycle Days Motocross event at Mid-Ohio. Just to clarify, all classes will be in a race order that will be start on Saturday. We should be able to get through the first set of motos and maybe half the second...

    CTMX Announcement!!!

    When you rent them... you generally pay $30 per rental. The deal Escore is doing for the Chillitown event is pretty amazing. Again, for those that do several events a year that require transponders (Daytona sx, regionals, winter o's) it's getting to the point where you should just go ahead and...

    CTMX Announcement!!!

    I know this doesn't help everyone, but if you're planning on doing the Regional at Sunday Creek and then Chillitown, the rental fees would pretty much pay for over half the transponder. AMA members receive a 20% discount on ONLINE orders only from MyLaps. Log into the members only section of...

    AMA - is out of vintage racing

    The reason for the consistent race programs was because I physically did everything. I want there to be a Vintage program with 200 events throughout the entire country. At some point we develop a sanctioning process and let the promoters/organizers do the rest.
