Hare Scrambles are timed events (usually 90 to 120 minutes),
on a closed course through the woods. You can ride at any speed that you feel comfortable with. You are timed and can view the results after the race and then online a few days later.

You must join FTR to compete. You can join at the race the day of the event, or join ahead of time at the FTR Site.

The first event of this new series is on October 22-23 in Madison, Florida.

This is your chance to get in on the ground floor of a new Series, come test your skills, and your stamina!!

See you There!!!!!!!!!!

For ALL the details, costs, rules, schedules, requirements,
GO to:
www.floridatrailriders.org

OR you can ask questions here and anyone from FTR can respond.

Due to the amount of rain Florida has recieved this year FTR has had to reschedule some of the Quad Series races. The first one now is scheduled for Oct 22nd and 23rd near Madison, Fl.

You can count on me and my son racing and supporting the QUAD SERIES, he has waited along time for this, and I have been waiting for him to finally get to race his quad in A great environment!!!!!

Well, I should be there! I know that my bike doesnt like to hit the water without losing the rear end . Good thing the courses wont be so bad!

Yes, me as you Willis and many others, can't wait to get the new season started, is a shame that now we have to wait even more, but o well, there is nothing we can do with mother nature  ;D

Luis C.

Yes Louis we can now go back to racing 2 hrs and I think that will be a good deal, I cant wait

Yes 2 hours !!! nice, I'll have to keep working to be in good shape.
I'll see you at the banquet, or may be before that on Hard Rock  ;D

yes I will be at hardrock with that black and yellow big tire YFZ450 woods bike, and having lots of fun on it too!!!!!

what class would my 240 blaster run in. 

redinjun,you can run a,b,or c 2 stroke.or 0-400 a,b.or c.I would recommend 0-400 there will be more guys to race with.I don't even know why they have 2 stroke clases there are usually only 2 or3 2 strokes that show up.

Well Jen, I think there has been only a few 2 strokes on the FTR regular series becuase there wasn't any 2 strokes class, I'm sure there will be a nice turn out, and we have to bring as many people as we can to our new series.

I know someone who is bringing A pro level 2-stroke to the races and it is all that and then some!!!

In preveous years there have been 2 stoke classes with the same result 1 or 2 in the class thats why they changed the class structure for 04 season.the 4 stroke c class would have 45 to 50 quads while the 2 stroke c class would have 2.Ask dooski how many guys he raced against when he had his 250r,the 2 stoke classes will probably be eliminated again in the coming years.

i have been thinking about running some ftr woods this year

but my question is  my pipe is around 101  dba  and i dont think they will let me threw with that pipe it says 96db on there website anyone know anything about this ??


also if i run +1 arms with a stock offset front wheel will i be to wide?

honda   450r is the bike should be around 47 inches

From what I hear, you might be pushing it. But I guess it really depends on the track.

As far as decible goes, people are talking about just going and actually seeing what they hit at the day of the race.. They also said they wont send you home, but give you a warning to get the sound down.

Check out the manufacture to see if they offer an insert to only lose .5hp but drop the dbs

I just want to remind everyone that the Florida Trail Riders "Hare Scrambles" first event is September 10th and 11th in Bunnell, Fl. This is for Quads and Bikes. The Quads still race on Saturday with some bike classes, and on Sunday ,it's the bikes only. This is a different series than the FTR "Quad Series", which is what this thread is about and hasn't started yet. The race in Bunnell is the regular Hare Scrambles that has competed for years.
So, if you are READY TO RACE, then get ready for HS#1. SEE YOU THERE!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Terry,

This is Matt from the Quad War show. Nice to see you on the site. Keep up the good work and see you at the next Monster Jam ;D ;D

Florida Trail Riders first Hare Scrambles is being held on September 24 and 25 in Holopaw Florida, (near Kissimmee). You can sign up at the race, but be sure to have your correct color number plates on your ATV. You will be assigned a number that you can add to the plates the day of the race. This is the regular Hare scrambles series that has run for a number of years. The "NEW" Quad Series has not started yet.
Any information you need is on the floridatrailriders.org website or ask question here and we will answer your questions.

I looked at the schedule...says "All Quads" on Saturday PM...then on Sunday it reads "A, B and C" classes in the PM. Are the races two days? Or are the A, B and C classes on Sunday for dirtbikes only?
Pat

Pat,
All quads run on Saturday for 1-1/2 hrs. at 3:30pm. Each class lines up on a different line and are let go in one minute increments. Fastest riders go first, slowest go last. In theory, no class would catch the class in front of them.
When the FTR "Quad Scrambles" start, then some quads race on Saturday and some on Sunday. For the Hare Scrambles this next weekend, we are done at 5:00pm and then we have Saturday night to party and BS, and then Sunday to drive home.

The race this coming weekend(24th) is just South of Orlando. Just West of Melbourne. Off 192.
Sign up starts around 7am. There is a practice lap at 9:30
50 inches is the width rule. I am running 48-1/2!! Those trees get tight!
Lot's of fun.
Here is an ariel I found. You can see the smoke from the starting line.
Hope to see some of you guys and gals there.
The rule is now 96 decibles.
I can attest that a stock pipe is more than most can REALLY handle. Wills Pledger runs a nice and quiet stock pipe, and blows the doors off piped/jetted, and what ever else we love to do to make 'em go faster, machines.

THANKS for the compliment Brian, I say spend money on suspension before anything, you can only go so fast in between them trees!!!

OK Everyone, the time is near. Next weekend is the first race of the new "FTR Quad Series"in Pinetta (Madison). You can make history by racing in this series. Let's all get out there and have a "GREAT TIME".
