MRA Round 1 at Pueblo this weekend; What you need to know

[JimWilson29]

Round 1 is only a couple days away and here are some things you need to know about this upcoming weekend at Pueblo Motorsports Park:

• On Friday, the MRA is hosting a track day for licensed racers only from 8am-5pm. Registration will open in the Race Day Office at 7:00 am. We're aware that everyone is concerned about the weather this weekend. The MRA Board will make a decision and announcement Thursday morning regarding whether the Friday track day will be held or not. Some of the information below may change.

​

• Gates will be open Thursday evening after 6:00 pm. This may change depending on the announcement on Thursday morning.
• There is no Friday night drag racing this weekend. PMP will be cleaning Turn 10 thoroughly.

• Concessions will be available this weekend and they will be serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.

• Showers in the Quarter Midget Track building will be available this weekend.

• Pueblo has 6 tire warmer electrical hook-ups in place near the picnic area for $20 a day. This is first come/first serve and can be paid for in the race day office. THESE ARE NOT RV HOOK-UPS! If you have a generator, we suggest you bring it so that those that really need the power hook-ups get them.

• The MRA will open Friday evening Tech after the track goes cold and it will close at approximately 7:00pm. This is only available for racers that have preregistered and paid. 2016 MRA Rulebooks and stickers will be available at Tech. Saturday morning Tech opens at 6:30am.

• The race day office will open on Friday evening after the track goes cold. An announcement will be made over the PA system. The office will open again at 6:30 am on Saturday and Sunday. If you did not preregister and pay for your races by Monday, 4/25, or would like to drop or add classes, you will need to see the MRA Office Staff.

• The race day office will close at 10:15 Saturday morning so that grids for sprint races can be completed. We ask that if you need assistance after this time, please contact an MRA Board member in the paddock.

• Race Day Schedules and Contingency forms will be available in the race day office.

• The rider meetings will start 15 minutes earlier this season at 7:30 am. Attendance is mandatory for all competitors.

• MRA T-shirts are available this weekend and can be purchased or picked up from Tony Baker.
