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

[danawilson]

I'm going out too, I miss Miller it's one of the coolest tracks ever. See you guys there!

Bree, glad you're coming out!

I'll answer a few questions in one reply here:

Sharkfins - in the rule book, but we let people slide for one weekend, so no worries

Frame sliders - That's a Miller requirement to help prevent the track surface from getting torn up. Required.

$50 off of practice - This is reflected in the shopping cart price of $75 for Saturday.

$50 "bring a friend" discount - Register as normal and you'll get a paypal refund at the registration desk. This is on top of the practice discount You can't have raced with us in 2010 and 2009. Bring someone new and you can get the discount. Hell, bring 5 friends and race for free!

You do need a current MRA license to take advantage of reciprocity.

Link to online registration is here: http://www.utahsba.com/registration/mom/guest.php

If you need a garage or RV space, drop Kamry an email. She reserves the facilities at Miller: kwhite@millermotorsportspark.com

Feel free to jet me an email if you have any questions. Excited to see some MRA friends this weekend. It hasn't been the same since HPR opened.

Not sure if anyone else is interested in racing on 4 wheels... But Robby Gordon Desert Racing challenge will be going on same time we're in Utah. 900hp trucks w/25"+ of suspension travel.

This should be awesome to see... My other racing passion is desert/off-road, so I'm stoked.... figured I'd pass it along

Cool. That's on the new offroad track on the west end of the paddock. I heard they're crazy-loud.

Dana, do you know if the track uses our transponders for lap times on track days? Just wondering because they have a spot for transponder number on the bike registration for the track day. Thanks

[jeff healy]

They use the same ones for the races but not sure about the trackdays. I would think it would be the same since they are set up for it

Dana, Is there a certain date that registration closes online?

[danawilson]

Dana, Is there a certain date that registration closes online?

Register online by Wednesday evening and avoid the late registration fee. Other than that, you can register online up until Sunday morning when in-person registration closes.

[Munch]

If you register online before Wednesday, what does it cost to add a race say on Sunday?

[Blue Junk]

If you register online before Wednesday, what does it cost to add a race say on Sunday?

Same price as the fee schedule outlines.

[Munch]

So just a single $25 post entry fee, if you add say 2 races, plus the fees for the races?

I've been to some Lucas Off Road races... Unlike anything, the trucks are incredibly fast... and LOOOOUD.

They do not provide lap times on the Friday MMP Trackday. On the Sat/Sun Practices (and of course races) they will post the lap times in the garage and they will be available at mylaps if you have an account

[evomach]

So just a single $25 post entry fee, if you add say 2 races, plus the fees for the races?

I'm pretty sure they don't charge you the $25 post entry fee if you have already signed up for some races. Just the normal race fee for the race based on how many races you have already signed up for.

[toptier]

are we allowed to camp at the track?

[peteyt328]

Does anyone that's going out to Miller have a lap timer beacon by any chance??

[evomach]

are we allowed to camp at the track?

Yes.

They have RV hookup spots you can rent and also there are always people who sleep in their trailers or in the back of their trucks/vans or even some who sleep in the garages if they rent one. There are showers on-site.

[Fastt Racing]

Peter, you will be going freaking fast! Don't worry about it. Me and Nyles will be right behind you no mater what your lap timer says, LOL.

[Fastt Racing]

Hey guys anyone want to rent a garage? How much are they?

[ZiaThunder]

Does anyone that's going out to Miller have a lap timer beacon by any chance??

The track has beacons hard wired into the starting towers. But, I'll have one if those aren't working. I"m sure others will too.

[peteyt328]

Thanks Kim!

Dennis, new track could mean anything....

[Throttleroller277]

Dennis, new track could mean anything....

It's just turns and straights!.... You'll be fine.

At this point you guys have seen all the types of corners there are:
-Constant Radius
-Decreasing Radius
-Increasing Radius
-Double Apex

Some may be faster than you have been on, some slower...

Remember... Fast sections Fast... Slow sections Slow.....

When learning any track for the first time, think in terms of feet per second. Don't worry so much about the slow corners at first,.. just be sure to not rush the entrance, which will enable you to nail the exit correctly, and get a good drive out. Getting a good drive onto the straights will give you higher MPH at the end of them, which equates to faster lap times. etc..... Remember.."Give up a little, to gain a lot"...

Miller "Flows" very well if ridden properly. Look at track maps... Draw the corners as you see them... throughout the day, draw the corners and point out to yourself where you do not have "reference points", and go out and find them.... Do your homework off the track, and everything will all come together, and flow.

Use your available track time wisely... Put your head down every time you are one the track, every session, every lap...... I'm not saying to go out there and crash every session pushing it.. but don't be out there "pussy footin" around during practice, riding like you are on Colfax looking for Hookers.... You're on a race track... act like it..

Remember it's just you against the race track... Pete, don't worry about where Dennis is on the track... Dennis, don't worry about where Pete and Nitro Nyles are at.. etc, etc... Just hit your marks.

There are plenty of friendly, fast riders out there that are willing to answer questions.... if you ask them...

I rode 3 full seasons at Miller for the first 3 years of it's existence, and won a few championships there, so feel free to call me should you have any questions, or just want to brag about how bad you whooped there ass'... 303-210-0425

You guys know what to do, and you'll do just fine... Go represent!!

Whish I could join ya, but it's not gonna happen....

Thanks Browny! Good info.

[Fastt Racing]

Damn Brownie, you're one wierd dude. Hookers, really? I feel more confident in learning the place now that I have a little game plan to follow, thanks a bunch Brownie.

[Throttleroller277]

Damn Brownie, you're one wierd dude. Hookers, really?

The only thing about Hookers that I have ever felt weird about, is when they are paying me to do things....

Don't you know who my #1 Sponsor is Dennis???? 8)

Someone help this guy out a little...

[jeff healy]

I have heard that man-whoring on Colfax is a pretty lucrative job!!
