Quad Only MX Series

[LostCause]

I will be adding that tomorrow.  The membership fee is 25.00 per person.  Will be good for the entire season....

I just wanted to get something up so everyone can believe it is coming!!!

Brett, everything is looking great. The big thing now is getting CJ's but into gear on getting his bike done lol. Im trying to get my work to sponser the series, trying real hard to see if they are want to. Right now its up in the air but im doing as much as I can.

[LostCause]

Sounds great.  The more sponsors we get the better.
Just a note.  If someones business wants to be a sponsor we will accept cash.  The Money will be used for product at the end of the year.  You should be able to use it as a tax write off .

LOOKING GOOD BRETT!!!

[dreth]

The dates all look good, But I do not see anything about race fees or membership fees, What are we looking at, will it just be one membership or will you need one for every track you race at??, with 3 racers in the family this would be a deciding factor.  KEN

3 racers.....WOW............hope you have deeeeeeeeep pockets

[LostCause]

Ken-
The membership fee is $25.00 per person and is good for the entire year(Sept-Aug).  It will also entitle you to ride all NQRA series events and we are also working on some sort of discounts for having the NQRA membership.

The race fee is $25.00 per class across the board.  Except for the Money Class which is $50.00.  100% pay back to riders.  80% gets split for the day and the remainder 20% goes into the pot for the end of the year and will be split between the top 3 in the Money class.
Gate fee's are still up in the air.  Working on that with the tracks.  That will be posted on the web page soon.

Practice will be sat and racing on sundays. (Practice and fees on Sat are run by the tracks)Those will be posted soon also.

Hope this helps and we will see you at the races!!

The whole, Racing on Sunday thing, is a God sent for me!  Maybe now I can actually race MX! My whole issue before was scheduling!  When you work most Saturdays, it makes it hard to get to a track by 5-6:00 o'clock! Especially when these tracks are a minimum 2 hrs from me and as far as 4 hrs!
Why couldnt you get Sand Mountain to play!?  Is it because of their uncertainty in being open?

I just wanted to say thanks for all you have done putting this together for everyone. I'm sure it will be a HUGE success.

Jason,

You are my age so you can remember guys like Donnie Banks, Jeff Watts, and especially Jimmy White from the 3 wheeler days. Man, racing was great back then, factory support, good money and all you needed was talent. Unlike now where you need big bucks to play on the big boy level.

Like a huge TT Track with some balls to it!!!  Imagine if that type of racing was around when the Banshee came out!!!
A couple of those step ups and small doubles was all that would slow you down back then!!

Scott,
I remember them boys!  That was back when I used to race w/ Jackie "Holeshot" Meadows!  He's still around the exteme dirt track series. But he still might be the only factory backed 14 yr old ever!  Where'd you find that video!?

[Scott270r]

JT,

I dug it up from a search on the internet. I wish I could suit up and try my hand out there now. By the way, any news on Sand Mountain? If it opens in the fall, I plan on coming down and seeing what the LT250R can do in the Open/Expert class. I hope they aren't closing it down like so many other places.

I remember those days, all you needed was about 1000 bucks to trick your quad out and you were ready to go. Your right, Now its all about the money.

Dale--
Thank you. 
This is something that I believe will turn into a big series.  We just need to show the tracks that the need is there.  I understand that all of the races are in the central part of the state this year, but if we get a good turnout from the riders down south and from up north there will be races in their areas next year.
So spread the word.  Get these people to the races!!!!!

Amen Brother, 

With all the riding areas starting to close and alot of tracks getting pressure from county and water managment districs to close down, we should make a strong effort to support the series.  Every level of rider should be made to feel welcome and appreciated in order to gain support and interest.  Most tracks cater to high level competition while overlooking the lower level riders.  If even those riders are encouraged and embraced to come out and race then we should definately have a good turnout!  I think that alot of riders are intimidated by the word "SERIES", thinking that they are not good enough.  The fear to actually take the first step to get started being a "RACER" is sometimes intimidating for beginners!!!  These guys are the future of racing!  Make that effort a strong felt one and I think your series could be set apart and will be a huge success!  Sorry for the rambling, Just had a few too many!

Very well put JT !!!!
Everyone that has quads and has ever wanted to try their hand at racing should get the word out. How will you ever know if you like it, if you dont try it. QUADS ONLY, how often do you get to hear that these days?

[LostCause]

We have added some more sponsors.  Check out the site.  Links to the sponsors are coming soon.

[LostCause]

Some of the Classes have changed a little.  The 450 production A, B, C, is now Open A, B, C.
