It all depends......If your rider is racing in 90 Production, 90 Modified or Super-mini........You can't get there from Mn. :devil:

[Logan #34's Dad]

Try: 102 Bald Hill Church Rd. Dillinger, PA 15327
OR: 218 Taylortown Rd
Mount Morris, PA 15349

Now, on Mapquest it has ME exiting at Exit #1 and traveling a twisty road to the address. I don't believe the last 2 miles on Bald Hill Road would be good if you got a long rig.

From AMAmotocross.com:
Big Rig Alternate Route:

From Pittsburgh, PA and points north
Take I-79 south to Exit 1 (Mount Morris)
Turn right into Mt. Morris and turn left onto US 19 south
Follow US 19 south to Rt. 100 south
Turn left on Rt. 100 for 3.1 mi
Turn left at Taylortown Rd
Track is 2 miles on the left

I would recommend taking the big rig route for anyone whom has a trailer or more. The other routes are basicly only good for cars, trucks and spectators.

Common..be adventurous. LOL

Oh believe me, I know.
These days with my old junky motorhome, I would get laughed off the local tracks. let alone the nats. :)

It is not what you have in the pits. It is what you have on the track that counts. But, there does seem to be a correlation. :eek2:

I can make the honest statement in letting you know that money won't win a championship, it simply makes the situation easier for what it takes to win.... Mostly the free ability to practice, many times with a trainer, and to do so year round.

I have personally know many in this sport with unlimited budget that never podiumed at one event.

I have also talked with many of the children and parents of those who are up front and I hate to let you know but most of them arent rich, but when you spend enough time around those kids you'll notice the difference.


On the other note, did anyone really yet figure out the best way into this track?

[thequadfather+2]

You may be correct but everyone knows you can buy speed. You can also have spare quads that match the primary quad. When one breaks just go drag out another one or bring a personal mechanic to the track. Now, I am not knocking anyone that does that because I would do it if I had the jack. I am not whinning either because there's always someone that has it worse than me but it is a fact that if you have the means to put those kind of resources on the track it will eventually pay off. If you got it, use it.

If I win the lottery - Dont think I wont show up in a double stack with a pit crew wearing matching uniforms, 12 matching quads and a master chef....:devil: I may not win but I will feel better about it...lol

Judging by the directions and some of the folks that have been there recently I guess we will use the big rig entrance. Thats the only safe way in for sure....
