Mark, glad to do it. Nice job racing, even with a blown fork seal
I wish I had more guys in my class to race with, but...
We didvstaycfor the after questioning. They are committed for next year. A few ideas like less classes. More 125 /250 modern stuff to even out the field. Talks of pig roast type dinners to bring more track social time and entries. Second class discounts and better giveaways from sponsors . Heck more sponsors. One mention of better advertising .
I don't know what AHRMAEVENTS are bringing in but it would be nice to all be in one track at the same time!
Actually it was my suggestion to have more combined classes. For example. Instead of Evo 1 125 , evo2 125 and Evo 3 125. Combine that to one class. You may get more riders in the same class instead of one in each.I didn't know that was going on after the race or I would have checked it out. Did the Beerbowers mention what kind of turnout they get for their ongoing Great Lakes Regional vintage races they regularly hold at Log Road? Since they have those races, I had thought they'd have a bunch of local Michigan folks show up for the AMA series race. Based on the riders in my class, that didn't seem to be the case. Also, do you have any specifics on what was meant by "less classes" ? By the way, it's really great to see younger guys like your son Jack, Kyle Wolfe and Ryan Plessinger be involved with old bike racing as the bottom line to helping low attendance is of course more people being hooked into the vintage scene.
Did anyone find a baffle after the vintage harescramble? It fell out on the first lap!
