Regarding the low quad turnout at the battle:
Holy Cow Batman! Give em a chance. One race and your givin' folks heck. Turnout was crappy for quads for sure. The folks I tried to recruit were racing 3 CRA races that weekend for points, Malvern had a nice turnout the night before. Most of the people I talked to felt the track was too extreme for them through hearsay. BC is bragged about by so many that it is the only true pro experience and it's a knarly, rutty, not for squids kinda track. That is intimadating. I dunno, I don't ride those tractors, so I can't really say. I do know that my neighbor who frequents your establishment often will not ride the "A" track, a little much for him. I don't think it is a question of supporting their own sport, I hope we don't have to look at it that way. Sounds like mandatory racing or you're outa there. I did not race my bike, am I a non-supporter? Remember OMA is about bringing racing back not pushing racers away. If you only get a few on the gate one week you may have 15 the next, it's like that in allot of classes. Ya gotta start somewhere. Folks reading this bantering back and forth are going to be hard to convince to come race with us. I do all that is possible to get people involved in this sport in general and then I read the kinda crap that get's thrown around on here. I get so tired of the folks talking quad this bike that. Who the hell cares, shut up and ride! That would look good on your shirts! In the words of my favorite cartoon character Cartman. "Screw you guys, I'm going home"!
