Well the next race scheduled for the 1/31 has been changed to 2/14 :(

Hummmm the 950 is all ready and no place to go - 2/14 ? Really? Valentines Day? This should go over good....how long could she stay pissed? :)

Good write up on the last one:

They will also be showing the movie "On Any Sunday". They had 3200 spectators and over 100 bikes show for the first one.

I made it to the last Saturday night race. It was a very good non stop show. The starter was a little predictable but the racing looked like a lot of fun. Pull start mini bikes to full on short track race bikes. Very cool to see the top pros throwing it sideways about half way down the straight of way.

For $10 it is a can't miss (add $10 for parking).

Went to the last one a few weeks ago. It was great, but very very loud inside that building. Bring ear plugs.

Well, I love motorcycles more than your average girl...but Valentines Day?.....that's just pushing the envelope a bit....I guess it's a good event for those who have no significant other.....I spent some valentines days that I would have actually gone to this race.!!! ...(when you are single on valentines day, it is "SINGLE'S AWARENESS DAY")

The boss gave me a hall pass to race this (on the 950se lol). She saw I was sooooo bummed when the 1/31 race was canceled she said go for it...she's a keeper and my pit crew :)

I've road and MX raced but never flat track so I signed up for this:

It's never too late....

Arnie --The TDM would be a show stopper !

The TDR deserves better then the public humiliation the 950 will suffer!

Besides parts are still easy to get for the KTM :)

Great video. The kid in the blue/yellow (also seen at the end) must be a prodigy. He raced several bikes in several classes and mostly cleaned up. He's 12.

It was mentioned before - but bring ear plugs.

Arnie: Help me pick you out and tell us what helmet or jersey color we should be looking for. If you have your number that would be even better. Good luck, we will be cheering for you.

Dark gray Klim long pants and light gray Klim Jersey with either a black or grey helmet. I'm sure I'm the only orange and black 950 Super Enduro. Shouldn't be too hard to see when it's lying on it's side in the middle of the turn.

They tried to talk me out of entering the "Open knobby" class as it's all 450's and I don't stand a chance but I'm there just for the track experience and have a good time so I'm still in. I will also be in the "Run what ya brung" class. Should be a hoot and if it's enough fun I might be in the market for a lightweight flat tracker to run with the other old guys in the future.
