Rock and more rocks. And then some woops. 9.2 miles of pure hell and fun. Looks like it will not have any dust for this time of year.

[cinigen9]

would you call it a "fast" course, or more technical?

Is it held in the st joe state park?

thanks

[tprender]

It will be on the outside of the reg riding area next to the old mine building. The same area as the March Of Dimes race staged from. 3 of us went down there 2 weeks ago and laid out the course on a sunday. The Mudders asked us to do the atv course being that they are bike people. It will have a little of everything in it. some will be very fast and wide open, some 1st gear, and some in 2nd and 3rd gear in the trees. You had better be in shape for what we found for you to ride.

[cinigen9]

not real familiar with the area - will look for the arrows!

what class do you ride in? what bike do you ride?

[tprender]

When I do race it is in the old man class on my 400ex with yellow plastic. Look me up when you get there. I will have a gray beard and most liky have my arrowing pouch on with the rainbow suspenders holding it up. Will be leaving Thursday night to start arrowing.

I'll be there!!!!

Me and my buddy will both be there. Been lloking forward to this all week, only a few more days. Looks like it will be a nice day, mid 70's and sunny. This time I am planning on making it farther than 2 miles, like I did at the March of Dimes. Look for us. We will be in a silver Dodge with a flatbead and 2 400's.


Hope to see a few of you there.

Ill be there , drive a black stepside chevy, white enclosed, from Alton.il. I did not get to run the gp because of broken ribs will be there for this one.

I have no skin left on my thumbs!!! This was a fun race. It was my first finish as I DNF'ed the last one. I went to finish and thats waht I did, nothing special 15'th in C class. It was a fun course. I was not expecting the fourth lap but I guss thats what racing is all about, the unexpected. There were a lot of broken quads along the trail, but I didn't see any EX's. Well I got the racing bug, and now I'm trying to improve my quad any way I can.

[Carl Nevins]

good job moto, at least you finished, there was alot of guys who didn't. i think the next race we are going to is taylorville on 11/2. If you guys decide to go we'll se ya there.

[cinigen9]

where is the 11/2 race at? Do you have a website or anymore information?

thanks

[Carl Nevins]

cini the race on 11/2 is in taylorville,il it is about 1 1/2 hours from St.Louis on I-55 between litchfield and springfield. i think their web site is Southforkdirtriders.com. it is not a ama sanctioned race. Carl

[motoboy66]

Carl,

I think both Nick and myself are going to try and make the Taylorville race. When you find out the time let me know. Did you find out anythink about the Casey race? Hopefuly I will see you at the race on 11/2, but if not we will have to get together at Flat some time.

Latter,
Todd
