What a great weekend for Racing at the Worcs race. For those who competed at the race, awesome job showing that ATV racing is here to stay with the 400+ entries to meet another milestone for WORCS. Do I hear 500 for Taft?

I got a lot of shots from the weekend (over 2000) , but I am finding it hard to know who was who. The frozen ground that turned to muddy conditions during the morning races made it very difficult to see numbers or even colors. But the afternoon races with Temperatures in the upper 60's.

There was definitly some coverage for the race with many of the big magazines being there, as well as many online sites showing up. I will have photos up soon and will post the link here as I always do. Can't wait to see the photos and race reports here at ATV Riders.

Hey - what magz were there?? That you know of......I know ATVIllustrated was out there....who else?

Dirt Wheels, ATV Illustrated, ATV Insider but I did hear there were some others. I heard that of the big 12 ATV magazines at least half of them had showed up for coverage. But I was way in the back desert section where no other photo guys were, trying to get something different.

Holy cow!! That's awesome!!! WORCS has needed the coverage from the big print mags........maybe with the numbers this year, and some good coverage, they will be able to keep the ATV only weekends indefinately! :)

AGREED!! And the best way to get this series off the ground to a new level is EXPOSURE!:macho Maybe this will also draw in more sponsors for the event as well.

Oh - and something else to keep in mind for everyone joining WORCS....they tested us all at round 1 for sounds.....I failed, my husband failed, and so did many others......if we were to race another round, we'd have to buy a new system.......don't get stuck there with too loud of a pipe! They are enforcing the sound rules at the next round! :eek2:

If ANYONE got some footage on vidoe and would like for me to host the clips, you can send me a copy of the video or borrow it to me and Ill host it .Ive got plenty of room on my site that I can host the entire series on a temp. basis.

Also, Harlen would also possibly host some clips if they are 10MB or less


clips would have to be caught on mini DV for me to support .

The guy that did the testing said that last week for the motorcycles, there was only a couple of racers that exceeded the db level, but this week, a lot of quad exhausts exceeded the 101 db max.:confused:

One rider on a 450R was at 112 db's... Went and put in a baffle, and then registered 93 db's... Big difference.

I raced my 416 with a Yoshi pipe with no baffle or screen... 96 db's.:cool:

Question: Does anyone know what will happen if you fail the db level at Taft? I am willing to bet that some racers will race their first race of the season there, and will be greatly dissapointed if they come all the way to race, and then have to drive home without racing because they were a few db's over.

Best of luck to those that have to lower their db's for Taft.
