    Anyone want to race w/USBA @ Miller OCT 1 ????

    Myself (luke) and Pete Tabor are kicking the idea around of going out to Miller for the last round w/USBA. They're running FULL course. Fee's are comparable to ours, no endurance, just sprint races. I have room for 4 bikes, gear, tools etc. and would be willing to make the drive out there... but looking for another 1-2 people to share the cost with..... Anyone serious, let me know. Round is Oct 1/2, they do things different there... Friday trackday run by different org, but saturday is JUST PRACTICE, NO RACES, then sprints on Sunday...

    If your serious, hit me up... either pm me or email: wuckert135@gmail.com. Probably leave early thursday morning

    They are running the full course, not perimeter. They are different.

    If you have the opportunity to run the full course at Miller, I suggest going out there to do it. You'll need to bring your big set of balls for a couple parts of that configuration, but you will not regret the trip.

    Luke,

    I'm planning on going.

    Just so you know they are offering us visiting riders a $50 discount on their practice fees at the 10-1 round along with full license reciprocity (unless you're planning on taking some of their money in KOM, for which you have to be a full member).

    Hope to see you there!

    Just to be clear there is some racing on Saturday at Miller- they do a 1.5 hour team endurance race there in addition to the practice.

    The track handles the Open Track Day Friday You can sign up for the Open Practice at

    www.millermotorsportspark.com

    As Scott said there is practice Sat morning and the first part of the afternoon, then the endurance races. All of the Sprint Races are on Sunday

    I hope you and Pete can make it out.

    I saw on the track website that you needed some kind of certification or something to ride that they would not be giving at the track. Does anyone know anything about that or will I have to give them a call?

    I thought I read bad! Petey I just read what you were referring to:

    Track Orientation Rider/Driver Evaluation (TORDE): $65Licensed racers do not need the TORDE.

    Every first-time Open Track Day participant, regardless of experience, except licensed racers, must complete a TORDE session prior to being allowed to participate. The TORDE is mandatory only on your first Open Track Day. This is to ensure that all participants understand the Rules of Participation. With riders of varying levels of experience on the track at the same time, it is imperative to follow the rules.

    The orientation consists of a 20-minute classroom session, a van ride around the circuit and an instructor lead-and-follow session. All TORDE sessions take place in the morning on Open Track Days. Once you have been cleared by your instructor, you are free to run the remainder of the day and any future Open Track Day. TORDE space is limited – you must call ahead or pre-register by selecting an Open Track date from the list on this page or via the following link

    well guess that sums that up. :lol:

    More detail on the Torde and Friday's track day:

    Open Track Days are available in half- and full-day increments. With the exception of licensed racers, first-time participants are required to attend a Track Orientation Rider/Driver Evaluation (TORDE) session. During the course of the season, all four of Miller Motorsports Park’s different track configurations will be utilized.

    Half Day » Own Motorcycle » $135.00

    Full Day » Own Motorcycle » $200.00

    Info from:

    http://www.millermotorsportspark.com...torcycles.html

    Anyone know if they offer a discount track day pack if we buy in bulk for Friday's trackday?

    While I'm digging, here's the MOM info:

    Keep this thread up if you're planning on going. I'm looking at making this trip!

    One thing you guys will want to know is that the USBA requires an AMA membership. We still get our insurance through them, and it is a requirement to register.

    Looks like we will have a rather large group of you coming out!

    Also, from my last trip over to miller, their rulebook requires sharkfins as well as frame sliders and ours does not! There are exceptions for those of us that ride cool bikes like the 999 which has it integrated into the swingarm but would be good to check on your application before getting over there and not passing tech for a $20 part! If you don't have one I know Kory carries a few with him to the track so you could check with him! Just a heads up!

    Here's my situation as of today. I have 3 out of 4 slots in my trailer taken. Munch, myself and taking Jeff Healy's equipment with me. Nik lenski is a possiblity for the 4th spot, as is Pete.... I'm looking into the rules, but for me transporting peoples bikes is prob out of the question.

    Hour and a half Endurance

    Who's in for the endurance race? Rybo, Healy? How about a twins team? We could run the relay class. And I'm looking at F5/supertwins, Hwss, and twinsGTO :twisted:

    Im in for some sort of end team! I was planning on running supertwins, AM O Twins O and Sportsman or Nov O. Probably sportsman since there are way more people on the grid but who knows! Buuuttt... If Luke can't take my bike, then I won't be able to join. Don't worry Luke, after the season the 999 has had it isn't worth anything anyways
