If I sign up late at the track will I be charged $20 for the weekend or $20 per race?

It's a $20 late fee for the weekend.

[T Baggins]

Well Tony what all does that entail? Lazy people may have not signed up and hope fully we get a few walk ups...What is the actual #?

106 racers signed up

$20,200 in entry fees

5 Superstreets pre-entered


We'll probably get about ten walkups each in SS and racers, so that will be about another $3K

Best estimate to put the weekend on is $28K.

A loss of $5k is manageable, but terribly unfortunate for the first race of the year.

For all people considering not racing due to cost, the 250 class is very reasonable on the pocketbook.....(its still racing and costs a bunch)
but tires last for weekends and you run pump gas (which isnt cheap but is much cheaper than race fuel) it also gets really good gas milage so your running through a couple gallons a weekend not a couple tank fulls.
anyways just saying!

[spideyrdr]

I've already entered 2 sprints for the weekend, which was $200. If I wanted to enter a couple more, let's say MWEnd and AmO and AmU, would it be at the 'race your ass off' pricing, so an additional $50 plus the $20 late surcharge, or how would that work? I don't think I can do 4 sprints and an endurance on the first weekend, but I am curious how it would work out if one were to do that.

[NossLou]

well I hope for the clubs sake those number pick up... otherwise this will be a short season.

[Slo]

Will be doing my part on available weekends..... Heading out into areas where bikes gather... talking to them about spectating but also getting into the superstreet race.

Not just bike nights either, but shell on colfax has a big group that may want to try it out. Sonic up in Federal Heights (federal & 96th area) on friday nights.

Would like to see by mid season a grid of 30+ with more potential to join the MRA full force for the year after.

I'd let you change my oil, paint my bodywork, fix my fairing stay...if you're bored. Let me know.

[gsnyder828]

come help me load my stuff!

No kidding... My bike needs safety wire, sag set, # plates/decals installed, etc. etc. etc and I'm travelling all week for work. I'll send you my garage code if you'll finish my bike prep for me - there's a beer or 3 in it if you get my trailer from storage, install the pit bull trailer restraint and load it up for me :lol: :lol:

[rforsythe]

Hey Joe my bike needs a motor and bodywork mounted, clipons and controls installed, brakes bled, decals, etc if you still have spare time...

Nice to see I'm not the only one who will be putting their shit together the night before...again! :lol:

[Jon]

Who the hell and how the hell can somebody be ready four days prior to race day, that's unheard of, unfathomable, unbelievable and for me unbelievable. I bet he forgets his keys :lol:

[AdamandNoahsdad]

I would like to thank everyone who has posted since Joe. Its nice to know I'm not the only one who is still not done with everything.

[scooter]

Damn Joe you must be fired up, completely ready? You would think with
7 months off we would all be ready, but as I sign off here I will be going
straight to the garage.

[Bueller999]

:lol:

My head gaskets will arrive "overnight-ed" Thurs. (hopefully) So lotsa time to put her back together.

[jmaher]

Being ready really early....my way of compensating for not being really fast.
