You're sounding less than enthused.

Whatever the conditions it will be fun, it may not be a real race but it puts it in front of people and gets it out there. Who cares if there are moguls on the track, it's about entertaining the expo crowd.

Doug,

Is it possible to have the race outdoors, while pitting indoors. Is there a parking lot with suitable asphalt. 24 x 60 by the time you put boards on the track would be extremely small obviously. I was really looking forward to this but now hearing what they have for us, I am not so sure anymore.

Doug-

Since some people are only coming out one day and not the other have you thought of running 2 seperate races? One saturday and one sunday with minimal classes so that the turnout is large in each class, maybe a silver can class and a 19t rubber and a 19t foam. If it is that bumpy Mod will proabably be a bad idea. I think that if you have 2 seperate days of racing and not just qualifying on saturday and than mains on sunday than the people who attend one day and not the other don't get the full experience. Mains on each day says,"Hey be back at 430 for the main" or what ever. Now those people that are there saturday don't just see qualifying. And the racers who can only be there one day and not the other aren't loosing out.

Anders.
Just some thoughts.

you see right through me. the part about in front of people might be thin as well due to the fact that we are in the second building away from the main show.
i just want all of you to be aware that this is less than good as far as surface goes.
If you go into it knowing this then the rest won't matter and yes it could be alot of fun.

thanks for all the input guy's i like your idea anders
