Grass Track GP/MX '03

That huge field used for part of the HS course would make a great grass track MX ... :aj: I'm thinking we make it an official event in '03. Thoughts?

I think it's also time to introduce the pit-bike/mini bike race we've always talked about. We could use a portion of the grass track for that. How about up to 125 cc 4-strokes and 65cc 2-strokes?

The grass track could also be used as part of the H/S race. ;)

Seems like we could get a lot of use out of the grass track.&nbsp; Of course we can have a grass track MX race.&nbsp; Remember that Rich and a bunch of us talked about having a grass track time trial, where one bike goes at a time, and an elapsed time is measured from start to finish.&nbsp; Lowest ET wins.&nbsp; Maybe some kind of handicapping or something like that for.&nbsp; Just thinking out loud.

Oh Yeah!

As long as we leave enough straight field in one section(entire length of field)&nbsp;to have a wheelie contest.

its all good.
Wheelies cant do, but love to watch
Mini races the latest craze , cool
GP & Grass track = Fun
Individual HS You know you want it
Donlop race. Heres a thought, take the biggest guy in the race. Say for instance he wheighs in at 320. That would be the first guy off the line, then a 1 second delay for each 3 pounds of mass, so for example at 260 you would have a 60 lbs advantage divided by 3 would give you a 20 second penalty. I would be flagging , because the race would be over before I could start.

Time trial. That's cool, works for me! Handicap by weight. I know a couple of Damn Yankee's that would be finished before we start.

You can count me in for the pit-bike race, I am just wondering if the engine size is fair. 50cc of motor + 190lb fat man= slow race
65cc of motor + 190lb fat man= faster then my slow

You think you can break your record of 92 mph on that grass track, next year?

Let's hope not...although this new Katoom would be more than willing.
