So merit is based on the volume of races done?
What if theses guys show up to every open ride the promoter has ?

It was about the rumor that D-12 may come backThe thread was discussing OMA and Buckeye series races.
I disagree. It has no benefit to the sport of moto. Moto is racing. Benefit off-road riding activities and the land owner? Sure. The sport, No.They don't support a race because it has a nice pit party - no
But to label practice as non beneficial to the promoters, riders and over all heath of the sport is erroneous
Ron, COCR and DMC are two places that should have someone park people as they come in for sure!I would just like to ask that early arrivers to the races please park like it makes sense. Especially those 35' and longer in length.
I am intrigued by some of these ideas though.
I'm done....carry on.
"They" will not like it, but it may have to happen.Ron, COCR and DMC are two places that should have someone park people as they come in for sure!
I actually agree with Georgie! I also agree with JO, Hershey, CK (kills me) and a bunch of others.Every year we have the same discussion. I don’t have a dog in the fight. Wish I did. But I can’t offer any insight. I know how to get To a race track. Pay them the gate fee. Go sign up and wait for my races.
I spend the same money - for 3x the amount of track time - for HALF of my day.
I have to agree with Jack..got to love paying 25 to 30 bucks and basically riding till You can’t go any more.. when scenic makes a come back for d12 I’m first on the gate..lol.
You left Malvern before the first motos were over.....So, how about a 12 hour endurance race? (I would say 24 but I don’t want to ride in the dark). They have pretty good turnouts out west. Perhaps a facility that has 2 large tracks on the same property could stick a “fork” in them and combine them and try it...
Because I’m a puss. But I can ride the first and last lap and it looks like I did it allYou left Malvern before the first motos were over.....
Valid points and understood. Let me rephrase it a bit. As good as all of those Vets are, they seldom come to local races. And the OMA and Buckeye Series is a series or local races that they would like to have people support more than just one race every now and again. Majority of the people supporting these races, will never line upYou bitch when I run local races because I use to have my pro license and then you bitch when I only do big races that I dont support local races you just like to bitch.The thread was discussing OMA and Buckeye series races.
This is something I don't understand. Why would, or should, the OMA or some other organization, care if a property owner allows races at their facility by another organization? I could understand not scheduling a race when another organization has a race scheduled that is close by. But, if a property owner provides a good track, and people want to race there, why does an organization instruct that owner they can't have other races? Why do the property owners agree to this? Just because some organization says they'll pull their races all together?So a few years ago I caught seven levels of hell for allowing tracks to run races with organizations or series outside the OMA, and when i put my foot down on it, it led to CT leaving the OMA. I do recall that being a major gripe by none other than DHDS01 and others. So 62 is running one Buckeye in 2021, CT is running 1 OMA next season, seems balanced. Wheres the uproar on this? Hell it was super big deal to where it wouldn't be tolerated a few years ago. This is why some of whats discussed I weed through mostly.
