I I can't speak for Jeremy but for me the fact that we obtained all of our goals was very exciting. We always pushed the envelope to see what new and creative things we could do to draw a crowd and put on a enjoyable event for everyone. What sucked the fun out of it was trying to juggle all the...

The folks at Chillitown put the people first. I'm very proud of our staff and the events we put on. Everyone is entitled to thier own opinions. So say what you want... Won't change the way I feel about the events we put on or the friends I made along the way.

JO be calling up the AMA like...

Exactly! Which is the only way you know how to draw a crowd...funnel them so they have to buy your product.

Come on JO.... Lease it and give it a try. With any luck you might get to find out what it's like to have more than 500 riders show up to your event. Lol!

Who said anything about Trevor other than you? I think you missed my point. You said you wasn't going to let ctmx cherry pick the best races and all I was saying was yes, give other tracks like TV Land a chance at running a battle but who ever had the lowest turnout the year before should have...

Why would other tracks not get a shot at a Battle race? The way I see it you should pick the best turn out events and make those a battle round then the track with the lowest turn out of the three rounds should have to step down and allow another OMA track to give it a try. If no other track...

We didn't want to triple sanction. We wanted the July race to be a battle race with the OMA and the October race to be a race ohio triple crown event. Osborn said our races had to be all OMA or none at all. Maybe Osborn didn't keep you in the loop.

Sounds like someone is butt hurt! I bet it really does sting that you never could get your numbers above 500. The "if you build it they will come" attitude doesn't work. Yes, Malvern was a great track when you had it but great track prep doesn't put riders on the gate... Being a good promoter...

Well.... Thats one perspective. I remember the days when Mr. Osborn was more concerned with the state of our sport than he was with building "his" organization. If he is so concerned with being fair to the organization then state the financials to the members. Allow the members to have a voice...

I think one of the things that hurts numbers is required membership for out of state riders and pro class riders. If out of state riders want to accumulate points then they can purchase a membership if they want but it shouldn't be required. I field more complaints from pro riders than any other...

We have DQ'd kids before, impounded pit bikes, revoked pit vehicle passes, etc and they still do it. A big problem we see happen is people don't report it until after the fact and we can't catch them. We typically get people complaining after the event but by then its too late. There are people...

Trust me when I say we had our guys working on it. The PA was without a doubt the biggest complaint we had on the weekend. Our IT guy did everything he could possibly do to get it working and even tried unhooking it so the areas that were going nuts wouldn't have to listen to the horrible noise...

The pit riding starts with the parents. These parents know their kids are not allowed to be riding pit bikes but they still do it. We try to police it the best we can but our security guys can't be everywhere at once and these kids are smart. They know how to not get caught. Every race we park...

The rule is no generators in the general camping area where the hook ups are. We do this so the people paying for hook ups don't have to listen to loud obnoxious generators all night. The primitive camping area is the big grass field beside the start stretch and staging. Generators are allowed...
