Anyone on here who raced at Bodatious this weekend??

Where is this track? Do they have a website? How about a Blaster Class?

[chawness]

The track is located near Dixie, Virginia. The website is www.bodatious.com

They have a Blaster class. There were 3 Blasters racing when I was there. 2 of them didnt finish because of sucking up water I think. first place paid $50 in that class.

The track is small and often wet / muddy as it has 2 creek crossings. They build small jumps over the creek crossings but sometimes it still gets muddy. They race 4x4 trucks and 2 wheel drive cars around the same track, so there are no other jumps.

Do they allow 300ex's and Warriors to race in the blaster class as well? What type of racing is it? Cross Country or Motocross?

THis is a very different kind of racing. It is basically a flat track sometimes with deep creek crossings. I went there in 04 and they only ran the flat circle track because the creek was too deep for the quads. I seen some really different quad set ups there. 18" rear tires and 23 " fronts. Something about crossing a creek that is sometimes near seat deep.

LOL........Ahh yes. Bodatious. The redneck central of Virginia. :) Yeah, we used to go there all the time when I still lived in Powhatan, Va. This is a fun place to go, but be prepared for the most hillbilly organization you've ever been too. It is a great time though, and the Truck/Car races are alot of fun to watch. The mudbogs are fun, and the sand drags are pretty darn impressive.

I no longer live close enough to make it worth the drive, but if you live in the area I'd suggest checking it out. There is even a pay back for the top 3 riders in each class. Where are you gonna get that in AMA racing without being a pro? :)

You are right about the redneck comment! LOL!! At its finest!

Payback is as follows:

1st $100
2nd $75
3rd $50

You can race multiple classes also depending on your quad. My buddy used to walk away with $600 after 2 days of racing....

I dont know about the 300ex or Warrior in the Blaster class. I'd shoot them an email and find out.

Also this is a horsepower track. The loose sandy/clay soil can suck the power out of your bike. There is nothing on the track to seperate the men from the boys either, like whoops, doubles or triples.
