    So, what's the Quad Excuse THIS week?

    What does that mean? It seemed like big bike after big bike had tons of practice. To add insult to injury, the announcer was calling for 85 practice to be in the staging areas when the A/B guys were on the track. We get down to staging and find that there were several flights of C classes yet...

    Sunday practices

    I might have mentioned this before, I have a friend who, at one time, owned the Las Vegas Karting Center. They would have TRIPLE the people for a Friday night "test and tune" than they ever had for any race day. Some people just want to ride, period. Better race turn out is fewer classes...

    Open Practice vs Sessions

    Maybe an answer for tracks that have 2 tracks is to flip flop the tracks every hour. In BC case (as an example not saying this should be done), but every hour superminis and under ride one track and big bikes the other. All day. Of course, the number of people that show up at BC, the c track...

    Practice order for (Battle) at Malvern on Saturday

    The boy's first trip to Malvern on Saturday/Sunday and wondered how practice would work. 2.5 hour drive, trying to back into a time to leave. (I have a lot of family schedules to try and arrange!) If it follows the schedule posted on the OMXA website, about how many times will the order be run...

    Thanks Chillitown! WOW!

    My only beef (I don't have a kid riding an oil injected 50) is to run those little guys and girls first, or after track grooming. It is painful to watch them try and negotiate a track with those monster ruts. Even the riders that could avoid them on the straights didn't have a prayer on the...

    Fast Traxx

    Spur of the moment decision and went down for the SX. OK turnout for the event despite the weather. The SX track was perfect. The start was a little messy but the track itself was great.

    missing a 125?

    I think the real crime here is trying to get 2500 bucks for an 03 125

    Ohio Motorcycle ( Hilliard & Oakwood V) Out of Business

    That placed sucked. No wonder they closed. Never any parts in stock.

    Two Stroke vs. Four Stroke

    I agree. I am looking for a winter project and thought a 2 stroke 250 with a big bore kit would be fun. Hard to swallow 3k for 05, 06, etc! I did score a 2002 cr80 for my son to practice on (He can race the 65 class for 2 more years) for $500. Every piece of plastic was twisted and scraped...

    Crazy that no one has a set of reeds for a 2005 KX250 in stock!!

    Yeah Whatever. Honda Northwest BLOWS. I would call for parts and as long as I ordered on Tuesday before 3, the parts would be in on Friday. No inbound freight, a little higher than the online guys but they are local. I stop in at lunch on a Tuesday (12:15) and have my list of parts. This is...

    An open and candid discussion about GP Racing

    Fall Sports As I stated on Facebook, Fall sports kept us away. It makes it tough to practice, and/or race with soccer going on. With that being said, we did load up and drive 1:45 to Fast Traxx for the last night motocross after the soccer game. On the way home, the boy commented on it being...

    How about mandatory transpnders?

    I raced karts for years and the big events you had to rent the transponders. ($10 or so) You could buy your own and use at the tracks if you wanted. It was kick ass to have to practice with. The difference may be that on the kart, set up was so critical, the only way to really notice the...

    Kal-Guard Lubricants

    I get it and was just curious. I change the boys frequently as well but error on the side of synthetic. Like Hersey's point, high film strength, etc, etc. It is used in F1 and aircraft for a reason. I cringe when I buy it (by the case) but I have not had component failure due to oil issues...
