All, we are considering several ideas for the final Round of the Battle Born 150 series scheduled for July 11-13 at Fernley. You saw we put "format TBA" on the flyer, our intentions were to make this a night race - however a few factors played into this not being a reality this year. With that said heres some ideas we are kicking around... let us know what you think. Regardless, there will not be a friday practice.
Some factors to consider before you comment; - heat - do you want to race in the heat? - extra cost of water - whatever we do - the majority of our local riders need to find the decision appealing
Heres some of the ideas we are considering 1. Split the format over 2 days- run all 50's, 65's, 85's, Supermini and all 250 and 450 beginners on Saturday, Practice will start at 7:30 - this will have us done around 12-1 (beating the heat) ---- then on Sunday - practice will be at 7:30 then run all big bike Jr thru Pro and all the +20, +30, +40 and beyond classes - this also includes Schoolboy, 2 Stroke open - again getting done early and beating the heat -
2. One moto format; there would be regular open practice on Saturday from 9-2 - then racing on Sunday, we would run a ONE moto race - all classes run one 8-10 lap moto. This equates to about the same amount of laps but If we do this model we will drop the prices some as well.
3. postone race and add to round 1 of our fall series -then just have 2 days of open practice - each day 8am - 2pm

I vote split the groups. Small bikes/beg sat, big bikes sun.

looking like choice 1 is gaining momentum from emails and such - keep the feedback coming

What if it just runs like its always run with practice on saturday and racing on Sunday. Then we will be pounding out 2nd motos when its the hottest part of the day. Turnouts are typically down in the summer months due to the heat. We are looking to keep the turnouts as high as possible.

When will you post what one you are doing that way I can plan for Saturday. Will my kid be racing that day or will we be at Pyramid for the weekend. I like the early start get out early to beat the heat..........

most likely this Sunday - option 1 has a strong lead at this time and a strong chance that will be the route we go

We have decided to push the race to the fall.
However we will put on a practice for those who still want to ride.
We will have open practice from 7am-2pm. Come out early and get some throttle therapy before it gets hot!

Club MX775 should just call the series and move on. To long of a wait. People made plans to race this weekend and might not be able to race in the fall. Let's just start fresh again in the fall.
