Round #6 like last year was held at Bullet Speedway located at Brashear, TX....The race was orginally set for the September 24th....but Hurricane Rita was set to come in with alot of rain so the race was postponed til the next weekend.

October 1st weekend was clear and hot with temps getting up to 90 degrees but with low humidity. Track conditions were great for the day.

Considering the gas prices and rescheduling the race the rider turn out was a little low. Approx. 200 riders were in attendance for the weekend.

The track was set up the same as last year....Tim Farr describes the track as technical, physical, tight and very fast!!

Each end has huge bowl turns for keeping the throttle pinned and a technical mid field with lane options, tunnel and bridge.
