I know some of those are sweet tracks. But man-- there are alotta races scheduled. (I'm not being facetious at all-- I have a ton of respect for Jason and Jeremy, and all the HARD work they put in-- so I want the races to go well as much as they do), but did you guys think too many events helped to stink up the CRA? I know we talked about the lack of cooperation to move the tracks into the modern age, but there are two ways of looking at a super full schedule. Just my opinions BTW.
We already KNOW that we are in an age of "riders" or "practicers", rather than full on racers. I'd kinda rather schedule far less events. and maximize the turnouts at each of them. If you had alot of ride/practice days as opposed to races-- it seems like you'd have better turnouts at each of the race days. I know for sure that I enjoy racing on tracks that I know inside and out, rather than 4 laps of practice then line up to race. (Bear in mind that I don't even race anymore, and when I did-- I was an average C rider... so I wasn't any good anyway).
On the other hand-- if you don't have enough events, then the points chasers will start to dabble into the CRA, and other series. Then get caught up in the points-- and those other series will become the priority for the rider as the season continues.
Maybe you'll have to see how the turnouts are-- and maybe poll the riders who DON'T show up to see why they don't. Kind of learn as you go I guess.
Now that you guys have a schedule, any chance of scheduling a 4-6 event pit bike series to go along with it-- so we can get it on the calendar early? We raced on the small track at OIR in the TV Land races, but these days- we tend to have more fun on the big tracks. BC has the C track which is pit- able. Lets get some rules/classes and some dates up if we're gonna do it. --L*64
