Primitive camping is free.
Thank you Chilli Town! What a great place and everything is treated as if this was the biggest race ever. I've been to Loretta Lynn Regionals that were not as nice as this event.
The pits are unmatched. No track I've ever been to in the entire country has nicer pits. Paved roads, nicely mowed grass in between, and 1,100 hookups make this place untouchable from a pit comfort standpoint. Think about this -- the biggest Amateur race in the world is at Loretta Lynn's and they have 150 hookups. Chilli Town has 1100. If they held the LL race at Chilli Town there would be no hookup lottery because everybody would have one!
Two big, heated party tents setup with big screen TVs in each one. People were watching the Ohio State game on Saturday and then the Monster Cup. It was a blast. Pumpkin contest, hayrides, camper trick or treating, it was great. When I read the flyer and saw that stuff I was thinking "yeah whatever...." Then I figured I probably should just pick up some candy in case "a couple" kids want some. We had more kids in costumes coming around than I used to get at home! We were scrambling for more candy!
Everything looks new. You can tell they didn't just show up the day before and disk the track. Staging area posts freshly painted, gate looked like new, everything neat and tidy and clean. Great attention to detail.
Monster Energy onsite doing hourly giveaways of T-shirts, etc, Christian club something (sorry can't remember) setup onsite, couple vendors for parts.
After the riders meeting Sunday CTMX brought out a Tshirt cannon to shoot Tshirts into the crowd. Riders meeting actually had the crowd applauding, I don't see that much.
Jarrett S. is awesome at the track. Kudos to you! Great job.
The track is nice!!! You could have a LL Area qually right now and are not far off from having a Youth Regional. The dirt is nice and the layout is fun. There is nowhere to rest on this track. I was more tired from my first 4 lap moto than all the GP races I've been doing combined. Sadly I only raced 1.5 motos as I was injured on lap two of the first +40 moto.
Overall, keep up the great work, this place is an absolute gem for Ohio. Not a bad drive from Cleveland area either, about 3 hours but all easy highway driving. I'll be back for sure and drag all these northern vets with me.
THANK YOU!
