Title: Ocala Speedway - May 17th. Results Added Page 6!!
Post by: fastrnrik on April 04, 2008, 08:53:48 PM
There will be a race at the Ocala Speedway on May 17th. We will be running the car track- 3/8 mile.

Race times are:
Gates OPen @ 10 am
Practice @ 12pm
Racing Starts @ 2 pm

There will be quads, motorcycles, and possibly some micro sprints racing. There WILL be a knobby class. There will be no stock cars racing that night, and I will prep the track to make sure it's nice and smooth.

For anyone who has never been to the Ocala Speedway, it is, in my opinion, the nicest facility in Florida. Also, this track has a nice asphalt figure 8 section in its infield. In the upcoming months there will be a supermoto / TT race which will utilize the big track and the aspahlt infield with some TT sized jumps.

Post by: fastrnrik on April 25, 2008, 02:17:51 PM
Several people have asked me what to expect with this track, so here goes:

* The surface is white gumbo clay.
* It holds moisture very well and has hardly no dust. We ran the entire AMA and AHRMA Winter Nationals on it for two days without watering it.
* The track will blue groove very quickly with lots of traffic.
* The track is 3/8 mile long. It is bigger than Eastbay, but has less banking. It is a big fast track, but it is no more dangerous than any other track. We had 300+ riders there for the AMA and AHRMA nationals during Bike Week with no major accidents or injuries.
* The track is WIDE. The cars routineley run 3 and 4 wide through the turns.
* Camping is allowed at the track. Camping will be in the grass parking area outside the track. There is no charge to camp.
* There are nice, paved pits.
* There is a full concession stand.
* There are nice, clean restrooms.
* There will be no alcohol sold the day we race, nor will there be ANY alcohol allowed in the pits.

Let me know if there are any more questions.

I forgot to mention it earlier, but due to the size of the track we will be running reduced laps.

For this race we will run two 6 lap heat races and a 8 lap main.

All classes will get two rounds of practice, possibly more, time permitting.

Camping in the grass parking area is not a problem.

I haven't asked about multi-day discounts or anything like that. I will see what I can work out.

Well if you show up and Billy shows up, you just need one more for a class. What about Walter on the 350X or Sykolincoln?

If anything I'll bring my scorpions which are like tamers so I'll run the knobbie class or if my duros pass for a knobbie since they are big I'll run those  ;)

the only way that i can see anything going 80 mph, is being wide open in 1 and 2
and not slowing down going into 3.

The race quads are easily capable of 80 mph on this track. They would routinely hit mid 60's mph, and occasionaly high 60's mph on the front straightaway at Thunderbowl, which was 1/4 mile track, whereas this is a 3/8 mile with big 'ol long straightaways. Should be interesting.

69.5mph @ thunderbowl on the MMR 550 sir. ;D

the only way that i can see anything going 80 mph, is being wide open in 1 and 2
and not slowing down going into 3.

well the quads have some advantages over the bikes.  2 big tires in rear & more power!  we put down up to 22" of rubber in the rear and there will be at least 2 bikes in the 80+ hp range and MANY others in the 55-65 hp range. on my machine all i have to do is run out 5th gear and i will be going over 80. hit 6th and go all the way to 95+mph.  i agree with brady. we "should" be able to go at least 80mph if the track is hooking good. 8)

Hi guys, I'm back from Green Bay and Philly. I raced at Neeses, SC last Saturday and took a 2nd in the Open Vintage class. BUT then there were only 3 in the class. The third place finisher told me after the race that he got a 3rd place trophy and that I finished next to last. LOL In the 2 months that I have been gone, Neeses was the only racing that I could do as none of the tracks up north were open yet. I had planned to ride Atwater, Wisconsin where I had that bad crash last spring (that 4 letter word, WORK) kept me from it. Gotta support the racing habit somehow.

I am planning to race at Rochester, NH on the half mile in mid June during Laconia Bike Week. There are 2 more races following Rochester at local tracks in the next 2 days after Rochester to make it a 3 race series. flattrack ben and I rode Rochester last June and had a great time. It is a wide cushion track with wide turns and lots of room. I have seen the pros running 4 abreast in the turns there.

Will see you all tomorrow. Its going to be hot in my leathers but I dress for the slide not the ride.

Hey Brady & Shawn
    I will be bringing a small group of fans to watch the races. One of them will be taking alot of pictures and video taping the heats & final races. My objective is that if they turn out well, I would be willing to burn DVD copies and for a small donation to the SDTA diesel fuel fund, I would mail out copies to anyone interested. Hoping whoever would want one would make a $5 or $10 donation to the SDTADFF. To help out the cause. Could you possibly have riders write their e mail address down when they sign up, get me a copy of the e mail list and I would blast out an e mail offering the DVD of the Ocala races. If I remember right, we had 67 riders at the last race. If 1/2 of them were interested.....$5 bucks x 30 riders .....$150 bucks........not alot but would buy at least 10 or 15 gallons of diesel.

Made it back safe and sound. Thanks for an excellent weekend of racing Dave, Brady, and everyone else that helped out. Brett, good to see you again man. 500 performed as expected for me until I had some sort of a piston failure and lost compression in the main (wasn't overtly lean, so I'm not sure what happened yet). But thanks again to everyone, hope everybody had safe and good rides home like I did.

A great night of racing thanks for the wonderful opportunity guys.  In the vet 30 class there was a bad accident in the 1st heat.  Two quads got together in the last turn and each of them hit the wall BAD.  I have it on video (most of it) and will work on posting it.  I have done pics on the forum but not videos.  Fortunately for the 2 neither of them went to the hospital, one actually tried racing the next heat.  Almost all of the quads were running in the mid 60's with only 2 quads actually hitting 70 mph.  I am glad the speeds were down today, I could not even imagine hitting 80-90!

Once again thanks for making this happen!

Good Morning Brady, Shawn, Dave and all those that support SDTA

You are still one up on me Brady. My fan base of 4 were all no shows. So at least you have "hecklers". Took a few pics, not many and will post them here. Hope the riders in the quad class that found the wall are ok. Was another great day of racing and for that I THANK YOU. My wife is finding out what racing/traveling is all about now. Had a right front tire explode on the dualley on the way home.  By the time I was able to pull over we were engulfed in heavy smoke. Scared the hell out of us but other than that, all else is ok. Called AAA and while they were on the road John & Royal passed by and didn t reconize the vehicle right way and backed up almost a half mile on interstate to see if we were ok...........thats the kind of people SDTA has in its group. People that care. Finally got home around midnight. My wife looked at me and said.......you must really love racing.....(you know the answer)......DAM RIGHT!!!!!!

anyway.....THANKS AGAIN TO ALL
pics forth coming.........maybe someone can tell me how to post more than one pic per message

    Ward,
 To post more than one pic at a time sign up for photobucket.com and upload your pics there then it will let you link back to atvflorida.



   Everybody,
  A huge thanks for everyone who came out and raced and all the family members who supported the racers. Also thanks to all the volunteers who helped us make it work...Rick, Liz, Jennifer, Brad, Darren, Shawn, Brady and anyone I forgot! I will post all the results from Ocala and the points-to-date as soon as possible. There were a total of 62 entries this time, 70 if we count the money class entries. The turnout gets better with each race.
  Sumter is next Saturday May 24. Registration opens at 10am, rider meeting at 11:45, practice at noon, racing at 2pm. Along with all the other activities going on at the fairgrounds, there will be a mini-concert after we finish racing and everyone is welcome to stay.

               Dave

The old guys and some of the few people I can say that to. Great People. Have given me some great advice on my racing in my quest to improve. Got my sights zoomed in on the fast guys......Kurt, Shawn.....that Brantley guy.....the 59 & 18 and anyone else that kicks my butt in 08. Might have to build a smaller bike to do it.....bigger is not always better.........but is a blast trying wrestle the BEAST!!!!!. Made it to 4th gear at Ocala which was a thrill. Got in the loose stuff in coming out of turn 2 on the second lap.......was dirt track'n it feet up slid'n all the way out of the turn..........wasn 't going anywhere......everyone went underneath me,....BUT MAN!!!!!!.....what a THRILL!!!!

So when are we coming back to race this track again? It really is a great track and I am looking forward to our next event here. It was great to be out racing again. I had almost forgotten how much fun it is to hold it down in 6th gear wide open around the turns.  ;D

His name is Tyler and he had fun racing with you too, at least for the first 2 minutes of the race after that it wasnt even close.  He has a pipe and filter on his 400 and for that size track there was no way he could be competitive against your quad.  That thing was fast and so were you.  Great Job.  Do you run the TT Tracks also?

all i have to say is i love that track! it is definitely on my favorits list. its nice to be able to stretch out my big 2 stroke. i know that the radar gun clocked me @ 70mph but i am here to tell you guys we were going faster than that. by my calculations my bike will go 90mph with my gearing,rpm,tire size and transmission ratios. mathematically fact! i was hitting the rev limiter half way down the back straight but i was not winding it all the way out down the front. i think my corner speed in turn one & two was about 60mph. so if you look at it like that we were DEFINITLY haulin' ! 8)
had a great time and thanks to everyone that helped put on the show. cant wait to do it again soon. :Fp

Glad I got to come down and race with you guys this past Saturday. I think that I raced the track more than anything else. Never been on a track like that before but I will be a lot more prepared next time.

Got to meet Dave, CJ, and another guy on a blue banshee with the #24 but I don't remember his name. All stand up guys to talk to.

Had a great time and I will be back.

Rob- I know you're hurtin' today. I hope you heal up fast. The track photographer got it all on film. Rick's going out there Friday to get us a copy. I'll have him get you a copy too so you can frame it. ;)

Yes I got owned this time Derek, now it's your time to come race a track with 9sec lap times where a 100hp bike doesn't mean a thing. Bring some sprockets. ;)

Hey Bama,

Its great to have hardcore racers like yourself come all that way, it helps make this the great sport that it is.

We'll have to come out your way when the season is over.  8)

Thank You to everyone who came out and raced. The track was BIG and FAST. The racing was good, the weather was nice, and with the exception of Rob's little mishap, we had a very good day.


Rob- I know you're hurtin' today. I hope you heal up fast. The track photographer got it all on film. Rick's going out there Friday to get us a copy. I'll have him get you a copy too so you can frame it. ;)

Thanks Again
-Brady

Great day of racing.Travis over heated in the first heat felt like it was down on power. Check it on Sunday morning found out he had a cracked piston. Won't be able to get parts till next week we will have to sit the next race out. Wish everyone luck and be safe.
Meghan was running strong until her spin out in turn 4 thank god she did not flip she sure does scare us as fast as she is getting.

See everyone next time

The Edwards

After 1042 miles, $250.00 in gas, $120.00 in food, $129.00 hotel for 2 nights (Ramada), & $80.00 in entry fees I am 1 tired mofo.

Glad I got to come down and race with you guys this past Saturday. I think that I raced the track more than anything else. Never been on a track like that before but I will be a lot more prepared next time.

Got to meet Dave, CJ, and another guy on a blue banshee with the #24 but I don't remember his name. All stand up guys to talk to.

Had a great time and I will be back.

Yes I got owned this time Derek, now it's your time to come race a track with 9sec lap times where a 100hp bike doesn't mean a thing. Bring some sprockets. ;)

thanks for coming down to ride with us... hopefully we can get together and come to your track and do the same. 8)  sorry i didnt speek at the track i didnt know which one was you i just seen you on the track... so what do you think about the GA/FL boys?   fast huh...? ;) 

Yes yall are quick, but I will be better next time. It's hard going to a superspeedway from a shorttrack and racing with the same set up. ::) I wrenched on my bike between every race and even fell asleep 1 time changing the rear sprockets. I was give out. Maybe next time I will have some folks with me so I don't have to do it all by myself. ???
