So I was out ridding at one of our favorite places to train (Sidley's). I remembered how hard Matt really trained. If anyone on here had the privilege to ride with Matt you would know how tough this kid was. He was in such great shape that the 12 hours race let him show off. So I was thinking that there could be a class (maybe just at his memorable race for the first year) that it is an insane amount of laps to honor Matt's determination. Like say you usually run 5 laps on that track, then we will run 25. This race should be an all out full bore race and the person whose machine and body can finish all the laps’ first wins. This race should be so tiring that you shouldn’t be able to walk after you get done. lol. Matt would have loved to enter in this race! Hell, knowing Matt he would of ran a stock 400 out there and still win the f*er. I ran the idea across Debbie (Matt's Mom) about a week ago and she thought it would be fun. So what do you kids think? We could even have a cool name for it like “The Midget Scramble!”
