Important Pueblo Information!
As we approach Round 4 at Pueblo Motorsports Park here are several things you need to know:
1) MRA Race Entries for Pueblo
The pre-entries for Pueblo are appallingly low. Presently we have fewer than 60 racers signed up. At this point we are GUARANTEED to lose money at the event. How much we lose is up to the membership based on the total signups and event revenue. The financial loss from this event could set the tone for future events at Pueblo (and other tracks) as well as possible entry fee adjustments for the remainder of the season. Please, come out to Pueblo and show your support – not only for the MRA but for the Pueblo Motorsports Park as they prepare to embark on the most massive overhaul and improvement to ANY track in Colorado history.
2) Friday Track Day by Faasst Performance is in jeopardy! Here is the communication from Judy regarding the poor signup:
Hello all,
We have only 13 bikes pre-registered for the PMP Bike Lapping Day July 8. That obviously is not near enough to support the costs of the track rental, the insurance, and the ambulance.
We are one week from the event with a Holiday in the way. We will cancel the event if this does not change quickly. Entry deadline is Friday, July 1st!
Gates open at 7am. Hot at 8am. $120 all day, no half day. Sessions if needed.
Register and pay here: www.faasst.com/registration.html
If you choose to pay at the gate, register first and remember to bring exact change. We will NOT have change at the gate and we will NOT accept credit cards the day of the event.
If your intention is to attend this event, the ball is now in your court to make it happen.
Thanks!
Judy Faass
3) Friday Night Drags:
We MUST NOT, MUST NOT, MUST NOT park SOUTH of the playground / water area on Friday. If you park there during the day you will be forced to move. If you leave your vehicle and/or trailer in the afternoon IT WILL BE TOWED! Friday night drags is BIG this year, we need to give them room. They’ve paid to rent the track and they are kind enough to allow us to occupy the pits on Friday night. Let's be good neighbors.
The spectator attendance at Friday Night Drags has been enormous this year. Please remember that these are not “our typical” MRA spectators and so put your stuff away and manage your children and pets accordingly.
We are encouraging MRA Racers to enter the drag races so that the spectators might be more inclined to come out to our races that weekend. They are “bracket races” so all bikes, fast and slow, have equal opportunity to win!
So, hope to see you all at Pueblo and praying for a good turnout and profitable event!
