Haha and who would that be? I'm curious!

Dude don't even race, let alone ride moto anymore, and he's bitching about a moto track being built. Pitracer FTW. And yes, fully aware of what NAACP stands for, however I firmly believe calling another human being "colored" shows ignorance. Oh and Mike its you're not your, and Dual not duel...

I said you were ignorant, not racist, and I think you're proving my point well. Mike, let me know when you're lining up next and what class you're racing and we'll gladly settle this on the track. I'm on here to bench race not to hear about how you have a "colored" co worker. You wanna talk...

AWD car= 4 tires

Had a great time today! Track layout is great!

Oh the internet, full of slander and dumb people. Like a 3 ring circus that I can watch from the couch

Where was the big bike regional this year? Answer that and you'll answer the "ever". Two words "sand track" Also, Ohio is a state that you can only ride outdoors at maybe 8 months out of the year. When you're competing against kids who ride year around, you're not going to see the return as you...

I think you're missing the point of this thread and Kilbarger is like 26, not sure he qualifies for early 00's. Plenty of local fast guys under 25 still going for it. Hand Karnow Clason Pfleiderer Taylor Herrelein Thomas Cooper Blanford Demastry Point being still plenty of fast guys from Ohio...

I'll respectfully disagree with a portion of this statement. Still plenty of fast local OH/PA riders, maybe not in the 50/65 range, but in the bigger bike classes yes. Most of these riders aren't showing up to your local races because the competition/payout isn't there and it shouldn't be for a...

The national amateur scene isn't ours to fix and we need to quit fixating on that. Loretta's has lost the spark it used to have simply because the risk/reward to become a professional racer isn't what it used to be. Also the cost to compete competitively at Loretta's is ridiculous, and once...

Ok so I'll throw this out there: I stepped away from racing in 2004. Sold it all. Put myself through college and got back into the sport 3 years ago. During my hiatus, I picked up mountain bike racing as was fairly succesful at it. Raced the local OMBC and 331 series. OMBC was fairly comparable...

What wheelset? Also if I remember correctly, you're a stout dude. Not going to find any stock wheelset that's going to holdup. My advice: A60's laced with stainless spokes/nipples to whatever hub you want.

Ya'll wanted to go against the grain and develop your own system because "you knew better". Now look where it's got ya. Track owners arguing on a public forum, one of the best tracks in ohio not open this year, tracks 15 minutes apart competing against each other, bleeding the average moto guy...

15 to get into a local race,50 bucks to practice, and 50 bucks for a transponder for a 4 laps race on a dusty ass track?? f**k that. Exactly why we didn't go. Had a blast at 62 though!!

I agree with what has been said in this topic so far. The opportunity is also there for folks to race damn near every weekend. We used to be at the races every weekend and the local races would be STACKED. And I'm not just talking for the pro purses. Gibson, Tom Kelly, Browning, Grabiel, Metz...

So now we're getting spamed on the main moto page. Great.

Let's all ponder something here: Smith and Apple Cabin are less than 15 minutes apart. Why is it we only see these threads on Smith Road? Same geographical area, same terrain, roughly same turnouts. What's the difference? I don't think anyone has implied that your family wasn't busting their...

Oh I agree with the riding the whole track bit. Seriously though, would you consider giving the smith road owners some advice or at least point them in the right direction? For reference I found this picture below. This was about 2/3 of the way through the first set of motos and they overwatered...

Oh boy. I have a lot of love for Smith, and maybe I hold them to higher a standard being the track I grew up on and have a lot of fond memories of. However, the past couple of years it has gone downhill track wise. Myself as well as others, have pointed this out on numerous occasions both on...

Davis was the guys last name. Wrecked right in front of me in 30+. Track was a bit slick from overwatering during the first set of second motos but from what I gathered he hit neutral. Only let us run 3 laps which I was disappointed in. They moved through the day pretty well and I was done by...
