Anyone going this weekend? Gillman and I will be there. This is only my 2nd MX so i'm going for 250B I think. Besides, I'm an old couch potato. :D

there wasnt a split last year between grantsberg and staple last year, but I belive there was a split between grantsberg and hurricane hills. grantsberg is not a very fun track to ride....most of the time people with go somewhere else if the have the option. grantsberg is very hard on the body and very hard on your quad.

Hey, I've got white # backgrounds that I had because that's what you run for Sport B Harescrambles, now that I want to race MX 250 B the ARMCA rules say you're supposed to have yellow backgrounds. Are they leanient on this or do I definetely need to change my # backgrounds before Sunday? Help!
Thanks,
Scott :(

the yellow backgrounds are for the bike B classes. next year there will be a rule on background color for quads.

O and scott,
about signing up for B...good idea. the A classes are very fast. I've been racing for a few years and I have a full race ready bike and im not going to even atempt to race A. the B class inst just for beginers...is for eveybody not in A. if you race your B class and win by a half lap then consider signing up for A. its not easy getting back into B if you already signed up for A. good luck this weekend anyway.

At least I can jump doubles now, when I raced the Motodome I wouldn't and I got lit up. :(
