thanks man I look forward to seeing some sweet motocross this weekend now. What time do they start?

[motohanks]

practice starts at 9am and then the races start right after. Racing usually starts at about 10:00 or 10:30 I think. I don't usually look at the time too much

are you thinking about racing or just coming to watch this time?

here's the order of the races...

Thanks again Moto Hanks. I went Sunday and I must say it was a great show. Lots of close racing and a beautiful track. I look forward to seeing more of what new england has to offer as far as motocross. Any suggestions on what tracks to go to next?

How late does the racing go? Im trying to convince my other half to go with me to the Jolly Rodgers race next weekend but she doesnt want us keeping the kids out too late since we would still have a 3hr drive home.
Hopefully once she sees one she will let me race next year. That or she will make me get rid of the quad.

probably around 5 or 6 PM, maybe 7. Since we are racing the track backwards,they have to wait for everyone to finish a race before they can drop the gate for the next one. You don't have to stay till the end of the last moto if you just came to watch. Unfortunately for me, my race is dead last and I am supposed to move into college Sunday. I think I am going home after practice saturday, so that I can move in Sunday morning before my first moto. I am going to miss practice on Sunday morning and I just have to hope that I get there in time for my first moto.

Curious about the same thing, new racer but experienced rider, what class would be best to start in?

You can always try 4 Stroke B or Open B, then depending on your bike size that could determine if you run 4 Stroke or Open, usually less riders in the Open class for some reason, but you can also run both if you've got some good stamina. You can also try the age classes depending on age, College Boy (16-24), 25 Plus, 30 Plus (B/C Level or A Level), or 40 Plus

Why do you recommend B and no C class?
