Battle for Ohio/Chillitown Classic

[jj584]

2nd time I missed something that was on the flyer... Thanks Sharc!

So...if we can keep the sessions to around 12 minutes per...we'll get through 3 times....leaving 6 minutes for any prep...lol. We'll plan on 2.

I'll plan on 2. Looks like the PW's and Jr./Sr.'s running together. 1 practice on each it looks like is the plan.

I think 2 sessions if your lucky unless they go past 12:30.

Do we need a buckeye series card to race Schoolboy 2 on Saturday? We only have AMA and OMA cards.

No. For either Sat or Sunday racing, you can show your OMA, Race Ohio, or PAMX card with your AMA.

Mother nature did not really cooperate on Sunday, but was a successful weekend by CTMX. Rain over night made for a wet track for Sunday practice. Track was coming around, then the skies opened up again. Track was probably better when it was raining, than when it started to tack up. Probably would have been half way decent for second motos, but then the skies opened up yet again. Matthew was in motos 16 and 23. At this point it was almost 5pm, so we decided to pack up with the bike all power washed and head home, than to go play in the mud again.

Open A had 35 riders. Lots of fast guys for sure. But 39 year old Jeff Gibson put on a clinic for the young guys, and got the holeshot in both motos and won all the big money! Incredible how well jeff still completes in the pro class.

272 entries on Saturday and 683 on Sunday for a total of 955 entries! Another huge event for CTMX. They have a huge clean up after this one though.

Matthew was 16 and 23. The track had to be horrible at that point.

The before and after says it all it was fun though muddiest track I’ve ever ridden

 

[Vet261]

Any of you people that skipped your second motos are just pussies!!! Real men (and women) suck it up and ride in the mud!!! You should be ashamed of yourselves!

hahahaha. Obviously I wouldn't have raced in the mud either LOL

I've raced some mud races from hell though. It's certainly much better if it just keeps raining so the water helps to keep the mud to getting sticky.

John, your boy appears to be quite tall. Them "outrigger" legs could be a big advantage in the slop.

First time I’ve ever rode mud like that with huge puddles it was a blast and I’m 6’5 I use it to my advantage

Well Done Matthew looks like you put in a great effort! Now let us talk about the spotlessly clean #250 bike we can see over your left shoulder.
