Is it going to be set up so we can run 2 classes? Open c & plus 30. Hopefully the weather holds up.
 
Cool. we plan to go! We had fun a TV Land Grand Prix last year. We are looking to do this and then Big Game on Sunday. First time to Ohio this year, as you guys had some shi8667 weather this spring!!
 
We hope the weather is good like everyone else. Maybe we will be blessed with a little rain in the morning, with overcast sky in the afternoon around the 70's, that would be perfect.

We would like to run that format, it just all depends who shows up. We think at max there will be three different groups of bikes and two groups of quads, these include youth and adult altogether. This is our first one, so we will be making some decisions the day of the race. The track will be good though, nothing hard and really enjoyable.

You will be coming through a slow scoring area, so make sure you have numbers on your bike and quads.

If we have enough for two groups of big bikes, we will put the minis in between.

Thanks everyone!
 
2 big bike races with the minis in between would be perfect. 2 Hudaks planning on coming down for first visit to malvern looking forward to it.
 
Is it to early to tell how the weather is looking? And If it gets cancelled what will happen?
 
Hello Guys,

It is to early for the weather, I think. We will not cancel. Rine or shine men. Just came from the track and it's looking alright, time will tell. It will be fun either way though.

I think lap times will be around 6 minutes for the average rider.

Thanks!

How many laps? I thought it was timed like a hare for some off reason..
 
Do points count towards CRA? If so would they just go towards MX2011 or does the CRA run a GP series like the AMA? Might bring the bike out...maybe even a quad.
 
Race was awesome. Pretty much every guy on a bike fell over at least once. All of the quads either stalled it or high centered in a few spots. That was my first woods race and pretty much my first time in the woods on my 250R. I learned quite a bit and next weeks MX race is going to feel like nothing compared to the track we had today. I took 5th and my friend took 1st on her quad.

Edit- I also got a chance to spray SOME of the 30 pounds of mud on my bike off to find out why I had a flat rear tire after just changing a brand new tube. Found a 5" nail in it. That'll do it.

Right on
 
So it must have been muddy. Glad I didn't do the 220 mile trip. I waited till 11 AM to make a decision yesterday, and I am glad I didn't go. Planed on Malvern and Big Game, but that didn't work out. Weather sucks this year.
