12hrs of America

[joedirt]

Everyone from the midwest was complaining about losing the 12hr race. You guys should of showed how strong your #s are at the 6hr races in MO and WI. 20something for the MO race and 13 for the WI race doesn't cut it. There were 50+ teams at the PA race last year. This is why they moved the race this year to PA.

I understand what you are saying but the timing of the even is very different, the WI race interfered with a GNCC and with the Iowa series, making it very hard for many to attend, these races are also in the spring/summer where as the 12 hr is in the late fall

I'm sure the spectator turn out for the 12hr will be better in PA if nothing else

It does sound like the east coast gets to have all the GNCC's. But I hear you on the 6 hours deal, bunch of *****s skipped out. So I think the east coast deserves to have the 12 hours!

OH this subject has been beat to hell. We got over the 12 hours being moved and ya just gotta bring it back up and start the crap all over again. Ya maybe Mo didn't have big numbers but all the riders who started the race finished (How often can you say that?) And I can say for sure we had an awesome race and it was one of the funnest races we've ever been too. Pellan said the 6 hours would be back in Missouri next year so we'll see what happens then. There's a whole huge gang of Missouri and Iowa Series riders that will be heading to Pennsylvania in October to bring home the wood. We may not have the east coast numbers but we are coming prepared to bring home more wood for this side of the Mississippi than stays on the East.:D

The Midwest still rocks!!!!!!!:blah:

I'm gonna bet that in July at the 6 hour of Rausch, we have over 60 teams!!!

:( unfortunatley its lookin like I'll be runnin solo (ironman)... My so called teammates won't call me back and seem to have no interest:rolleyes: ..I guess me supplying everything isn't good enough... unless I find someone else worthy of teaming up with, I'll be Ironmanning it!!

We'll be waiting for all you cocky Midwesterns. What are you guys going to have 30+ teams show up for this race and not your own!:)

This was in a middle of a 7 or 8 race stretch. And alot people didn't know how to get teams togther and couldn't get teams together. My team came togther at the last minute and we went threw three qauds the day before the race, My team will be a the 12 hour and that all I have to say about this so let it die!!!!!!!!

[dirtriderex]

I may get a team togethar to ride in the b class, b/c I don't think you can Ironman that race:ermm:

[parkers30]

I really want to go atleast watch, we'll have to see when the time comes

[dirtriderex]

Hey I'll travel with you, maybe we can team up...

[parkers30]

Thatswould be cool, like I said we'll see as it gets a little closer but I'd porbably be down for teaming up

by the way the website for it says that if there is enough interest they may be an Ironman class and the entry fee would still be $200 :eek:
