What's up. New to the central FL area. I raced strictly TT and flat rack where I came from. This looks like the right place for me to get info for some local racing.

Yeah, I checked out your site. I was reading about the race on Sunday. It's in the Tampa area right? How many really fast, A class type guys are there, 40-50? Is there a gambler or open money class? My hauler and quads are supposed to arrive sometime tomorrow, and I'm jonesing for some racing, flat track or TT, I don't care.
I'm in the Ocala/Citrus County area. I moved here from the midwest for my wife, and I'm not digging it so far. I went and checked out the track in Ocala today (I had to jump the fence, shhhh). I might run that Saturday night as well. I talked to a guy named Brian who was riding at the MX place next door. He said he races a lot of flat track with you guys. He seemed like a goof, so I don't know if he was shooting me straight or not.

We dont race for $$, that seems to bring out the worst in people. We race for thropies and end of the year points.
If i remember right we have 55ish total members. Its good your in Ocala, Brady has a very nice track there. He might give you an earfull for jumping his fence though.. o ya hes on this site too. LOL
just make fun of his night club paisley shirt... (LOL!!!) Yes we know Brian, he races at the track there in Ocala but isnt a member of the league. Feel free to come watch Sunday. Im the fella in the hand cast..

Chris is right. Don't jump my fence, the gates are locked for a reason. Call the # on the sign, my cell # is on the answering machine. I'd be more than happy to talk with you or meet you there for you to look around. Brian is one of our local racers, he's a good guy, and a fast rider on a good bike. Why would you get on an open forum and talk smack about him, when you don't know him?
Chris you know you want to borrow my shirt, because it's P.I.M.P.!
As a sidenote, my kid pee'd on it the last time we were at Eastbay. I think he's trying to tell me something...

Chill out fastrnrik, next time I'll call.
I talk smack because I call it like I see it. So what?
55-ish A class riders or total riders? I can see the lower classes not racing for $, but the pro riders don't want cash purses either? That's kind of new to me.

I dunno.
Cause hes sloooooooooooow and can't be cool about losing. Having money involved makes it "acceptable" to be pissed about losing.

OK, my hauler just showed up, so it's on.
I WILL be at Ocala Saturday to take the local boys money.
I will probably come race at the Tampa track as well. Do I need to join your club, or can I just race?
I'm hearing now that there's only a few fast guys to run with? A guy with a Banshee, a young kid, some guy from up north somewhere, and some MX guy. Is this true?

Only you can judge whos fast and whos not....no, you dont need to join the league to race this weekend at Eastbay but its 30.00 race race rather than 25.00 if your a league member. You can race at Thunderbowl sat night, consider it practice.... The Open class will be at Eastbay Sunday. You better have your A game on, Eastbay is a very fast track.

$30.00 to race, not too bad. Why is the Thunder place "practice"? No fast people there either? Dang, I might have to go back up north or switch back to MX to get some competition.
By the way, I only have an "A" game. Go ahead and get my trophy ready.

A "real" person? As opposed to what, an imaginary person?
I'll be there on Sunday. I'll be watching the weather to see what's up with the rain I guess. I don't really care to drive 2 hours to race your fast guys, since there's only a few, but I guess it's better than sitting around the house. Maybe I'll bring a stock bike so it's fair for you guys. We'll see.

Sense the topic is "New Guy looking for info" Here is a little for you... Some of us Flat trackers here in Florida are kind of slow so you might want to pack up and go back home to get some better competition.
If you want to race for fun and braggin rights, bring your rookie butt to East Bay and see if you can hang with some of us slow pokes. If you can
then get back on here and talk smack. But until you do your just another key board racer..
Seee everyone on Sunday

What I mean by that is, Ocala doesnt have a Open class when the league inst there. Im ASSUMING there wont be many quads there Sat night if there is a league race Sunday morning. Plus this Sat isnt a points night for Ocala.
So you might be going there to practice...
