**********THANKS*************
Tremont, PA - 6 Hours of ATV America Series began its 2005 journey around the USA back in February at Caddo Point in Greenville, TX, and after visiting Georgia, Missouri, and Wisconsin, the series headed to the Pennsylvania Mountains. Unlike the prior four races, the race at Rausch Creek MX Park won’t start till 5PM, so it will be well past dark once the race is over, which will make headlights a necessity.
With the 12 Hours of ATV America also scheduled to be held at Rausch Creek in October, the 6 Hour event at night would provide the perfect testing ground to prepare teams the 12 hour event.
The turnout for the event was only slight up from last year with 46 team entries compared to 42 teams last year, but surprisingly the opening round in Texas remained the largest turnout for any 6 Hour Event with 49 entries.
The track layout was also very similar to last year’s event with a mixture of motocross and woods with the track just over 5 miles in length, which is the normal length for a 6 hour event
Dust was not going to be an issue for sure because the area received heavy rain overnight and past couple days from showers spawned from the remnants of Hurricane Dennis which had the ground saturated with water and more rain forecasted throughout the day.
Teams began arriving on Friday to find the best pit spots and get a chance to walk the track before the race on Saturday.
