Cool! I am most likely going to be there running the 250-450 2 & 4 stroke novice class also! I want to run this class because there is more races which makes it more fun. Where are you from Hanes15?

the track does not have that many jumps...
its mainly lots of long sweeping turns with a couple switch backs..
they have a pretty big table and a big step up.. other than that its a lot of fun....
the track is really wide and you can pass almost anywhere...
the start is plenty long as well....
hope to see you there

Cool, how big is the table top? How long does it take someone like a pro to complete one lap? Is it hard packed?

Cool I will probably be there if I find out how to get my bike up there because my car is going downhill.
