Title: Southern Flat Track League Questions
Post by: Loven It on September 13, 2006, 11:28:25 AM
I have a few questions about this and how to get started. I am trying to get all the info I need to consider signing up my son. I did read everything on the website but think I got sensory overload since this is a new interest that I really know nothing about. I just need clarification.

1. I just bought my son a 05 Honda 90, he is 6yrs old. Is he allowed to race that   there because the age for the quad is I think 12yrs old?

2. Do I need to sign him up anywhere else for him to be able to be in this league?

3. How much money do I need to start him, as in fees and everything? (approx. figure)

4. Do the races normally run on the weekends or during the week as well?

That is really all I can think of at the moment with the first question being the most important.

He does have full gear: helmet,goggles,gloves,chest protector, boots, jersey and pants. Is a kill switch something I need to get too?

Thanks to anyone that can help..I really appreciate it and look forward to hopefully meeting some of you.

Let me give this whirl!
1, the bike is fine, Its up the the parent to know what is safe or not. Were going to try and split up the peewee classe for the slower/faster bikes. For example my boy usually gets lapped once or twice
and thats not real safe for anyone.

2, Anywhere else? you can see me at the track or pay via paypal throught the website.

3, The league fee is 25.00 per season. The tracks have fees for the gate and the cost to race. they vary from track to track.

4,Sat night racing. next season it will be one points race a month. see the website for the schedule.

5, Kill cords arnt "law" but its a very good idea on the little bikes, neck braces are a great idea as well.

Let me know if you need anything else,
Chris
