I heard that Steve Brown and Ty Erquiaga were at the GANG meeting last night and they announced that Steve bought the FERN. I could not believe this so I called Judy. She told me that there will be a meeting Thursday at TCID about LEASING the track to the Lyons club and that Steve and Ty are on the agenda as well. She also knows that Ty and Steve are trying to take the track but nothing has been sold or settled until the meeting with TCID. That is all she would tell me, just cross our fingers and wish the gang and old timers luck at the meeting . SO whats really going on? ?

Very interesting. I've heard some things, but I think someone who's really involved should confirm what's happening. I don't want to let any cats from their bags prematurely.

Old Skool... Lets set several issues straight RIGHT away. 1. We never stated it was sold (yet) or we had the deal done (yet). Actually Steve told you and the club nothing is done until the ink is dry. Is this our objective? Yes and we were honest about it. 2. More importantly, why didnt you explain here what our agenda really was last night instead of attempting to foster more bad blood. Hasn't the last year prooved to you enough? ? Is this an example of the future of our possible relationship with your club(s)? I really hope not. For those reading this, here's what was really said and what our motives were for attending the othg meeting last night: We have an offer on the table to aquire the property and here's why. We want to turn the land into a FULL BLOWN MX PARK that is open 2-3 days per week for open practice, schools, etc. YES thats right a FULL raceplex right here in Nothern NV! We went to the othg meeting to explain to the club (on their election night mind you) that their place at the Fern will be safe and to difuse any rumors that weren't true (like the stuff written here). We felt it was a stand up thing to do and wanted to put your minds at ease. Our plan would not only make your events better, but more profitable with a lot less headache..What is so dang bad about that? Furthermore, as stated above, it will open it up for groomed and wet sessions several days a week. Luckily, not all of the members share your opinion or want to pitch this as a bad thing. We explained all this last night in great length and yet you come on here today to pitch this as a though this is a bad thing for anybody (especially your club). Unbelievable!!! Heres a reality check. The property WILL NOT last as a race track in the current state it exists and if you really knew what you are talking about you would know this. PERIOD!!! The land owners want to see a lot more $$ generated for their very valuable piece of real estate and are at the end of their rope as far as the liability exposure goes!! You close your post with wish the gang lucK??? For what? So the property can go to some one that wont preserve it as a race track? Wake UP!!! How about this Riders wish us luck because this will give us all a place to ride!!! VERY VERY SOON!!

Who is oldskool anyway? I am just curious! I was told this weekend that there was a big meeting Thursday night. Shouldn't old guy of waited until after that meeting to start posting rumors etc... about this. Maybe he thrives on it. Pesonally, I have mixed emotions about this but will not go into detail about it. I just pray that everyone that is involved somehow make it a great place for the riders. This place will always be special to me and I will be back to ride and visit with my friends that I have made through this sport. I have heard a few "rumors" about what is going on but that is exactly what they are. Like Robert mentioned, let the people in the know make any announcements about what is going on. Quit stirring the pot oldskool. Mark Cody 818

Here is another winner! Jimmy woooooooooooo what ever!
Dude get your facts straight! Ty is not MxWest, Ty was apart of MxWest. For the last 8 years or so. MxWest was Layne, Kim, Greg, Ty. For the las 7 months it was Mark, Steve, Cat, Dave, Kim. Ty became just a promoter at the end of last Spring. Every time we tried to do anything there was/is stereotypes that constantly held a grudge against Ty and would not work with us because they could not help but think that MxWest was Ty period. People like you have contributed so much to why things are the way they are now.
Trophies... Did you get your precious trophies? I got all of mine! MxWest not just Ty came through for the riders and got them the trophies. Do you know that some of the cost of the trophies came out of some of the board members past & new own pockets because of other politics going on. Get all the facts before bashing someone. If you do bash someone then own up to it with posting who you are.
When you say stupid stuff like this, you are saying it to a bunch of caring people. Call me anytime if you want to discuss any of this in more detail. Jimmy I don't know who you are. Mark Cody 818

Ok, no mudd slinging here!
Question? Is Ty the one buying Fernley or is he going to be one of the track builders if this actually happens which we don't know.
Quetion? Will the OTHG and OTMX still be holding races there? I heard yes! (rumor)
Answer to all questions - Like you said, you just want more places to ride, practice and raced. Then do that and stay out of the politics. I have no clue what is happenig. That does not give me the right to start putting a promoter down.
P.S. Ty by no means is an Angel or Perfect! I will say one thing for him tho. He builds great tracks! Carson, Stead, Arenacross, Calder Park, The new Winnemucca Track that is still one of the best tracks around.

I guess you did not read my pm!
What is so wrong with making money at motocross? Were you on here two springs ago saying things like this? It really sucks that the weather did not cooperate for Ty two races in a row where he lost over $2000 each race. Give me a break dude! Moving to Texas has nothing to do with things. It has to do with morons like you that put out BS information all the time. By the way, I will be moving anytime between now and May. I think I will stay as long as I can just for you.

Color me uninformed, but isn't that exactly what Ty IS trying to do? He IS trying to give back. How many other places are open for practice?
