Hodaka World Championship, Crazy right!

Recommended Posts

Posted on the FB page.

The Harry Taylor Cup World Championship is the real deal. The promotor is really excited to bring the Hodaka brand to the Don Matthews CZ World Championship race. The first year will be a learning curve for him, but he has a lot of ideas and events for Hodaka owners. Here is the lowdown on what he has planned. On Saturday morning he is having a bike show in the main area featuring all of the CZ's in year of production. in the past he has had upwards of 200 bikes. What he has proposed is the we, the Hodaka owners, will display their bikes on each side of the walkway leading up to the CZ display. This means the spectators are going to see the Hodaka's first!! You can't ask for anything better. On Saturday afternoon, there will be a Holeshot contest (side by side drag race). You can race your buddies and also he will be having a actual competition with 100cc, 125cc, 250cc, and open class entries. Last racer standing in each class will be declared the winner. Saturday night they are having a Spaghetti supper ( I think it is $10 ) with a vintage pit display contest and then some bon fires and movies to round out the evening. On Sunday, the races will start around 8 am. They will have numerous gates and moto's for the CZ's ( remember, it's their event ), and they are going to have 1 moto, yes 1 moto for the Hodaka's with 3 gate drops. The 100's first, then the 125's, and then the 175/250's. There will be expert, intermediate and novice in each of those classes and they will be scored individually with 3 podium finishes and awards for each skill level in those 3 classes. This way, ALL, Hodaka's will be on the track at the same time, representing the Hodaka brand. He is also working on a womens class with CZ's and Hodaka's running together, but this is not been finalized. The awards are sounding awesome, they will be different than the CZ riders ( those are like 48" tall for 1st and work their way down to 3rd), but I can't say what they will be yet. They are still being worked with a few details still being finalized. Also on Sunday at intermission they are going to have a 125cc shoot-out, CZ against Hodaka, with the winner take all, having bragging rights and a traveling trophy that will be brought back the next year. Stay tune to the Harry Taylor Cup Facebook page for more updates. Let's try and support this event so it becomes bigger and bigger every year.HT Cup.jpg
