It's just around the corner!

This weekend the MRA will be holding it's 3rd Annual 4 Hour Endurance Race on Saturday, June 9th. We've had a lot of interest outside of this region, so we wanted to put together a list of important items that you need to know if you are planning to compete in this year's race.

This season’s 4 Hour Endurance Race will include three classes: Pony Express, True Endurance and Titanium Butt. ABATE of Colorado and Imperial Sportbikes are once again title sponsors. Cash purse amounts are still being finalized. For complete details of each of these classes, and all other rules pertaining to the 4 Hour Endurance, please refer to the 2012 4 Hour Endurance Rules- http://filezilla.mra-racing.org/file...RulesFinal.pdf

We offer license reciprocity for racers from other organizations. We will require you to be a member, fill out our membership application and provide a copy of your race license at no cost to you: http://filezilla.mra-racing.org/file...ion_Packet.pdf You may complete your membership application prior to the race weekend and fax it to 303-379-6394:

All 4 Hour Endurance competitors are required to enter as is normally done for any other race weekends. Online entry is now closed so you will need complete a fax entry form and fax it by Friday or enter Saturday morning: http://filezilla.mra-racing.org/file...Entry_form.pdf Remember each team member must enter in order to race. If you plan to only enter endurance, the walk-up entry fee is $100 per rider.

In addition to each team member entering online, each team is required to complete the 4 Hour Endurance Entry Form: http://filezilla.mra-racing.org/file...ryForm2012.pdf Please fax to club secretary Jen Grosse at 303-379-6394 prior to Saturday, June 9th. Remember, this form is in addition to entering the endurance race either online, fax entry or the morning of the race day.

If you would prefer not spending extra time in line Saturday morning, please send your Fax Entry Form and your 4 Hour Endurance Entry Form by midnight Friday, June 8th! If you currently do not have an MRA license or you plan on using reciprocity with your license from another organization, fax us your completed app prior to this weekend instead of waiting in line!

Our corner workers will be spending added time on the track working the 4 Hour Endurance this weekend. Last year we collected enough money to give our corner workers an extra $100 each that worked the 4 hour endurance race. We challenge each and every one of you to donate again this year. Are you up for it?? I sure hope so! Remember the corner workers make it possible for YOU to race. Our Track Marshal, Ray Gaimara, will have a "donate" bucket that he will be running around with so please be generous if possible. For more info regarding helping our corner workers this weekend, please see this post on the MRA forum: http://forums.mra-racing.org/viewtopic.php?t=14886

Friday, June 8th, is a motorcycle lapping day put on by High Plains Raceway. You can sign up online here: http://highplainsraceway.com/lapping-days.html

Camping at the track is allowed starting Friday night. If you arrive Thursday night, you are permitted to camp outside the gates.
