Reserved numbers at Action Sports!

Come to think of it I do have one number on one side of the helmet, another number on the other side of the helmet, a different number on the bike or no number at all on another bike. And yes the transponder has its' own sign-up number too.
 
I've had, and they've used the same number on my helmet for three years now.
I bought a new helmet over the winter but haven't switched because of the number and transponder sticker on my old HJC.

At the risk of echoing like a scratched record, I just cannot get over how much fun I had at last Sundays GP. I just couldn't get over the idea that this is as close to real 1960's style hard core Scrambles/MX as you can get.
I regularly feed my brain with a lot of moto videos when I get time, from the modern Nationals races to old vintage flashback videos that I have and a whole lot of what you see in those videos we see on the GP track, as well as the endurance that it takes to go hard for 45+ minutes. The only thing lacking are large mega jumps. Which is fine.

There was a track section re-entering a wooded area, that had an immediate right hand turn-in, that rutted up very nicely with plenty of turn options, and then straightened out for about a 150 ft that just got knarly rutted and bumps, and I couldn't help but think as I was flying through this how much it was just like an old badly chopped up whoop-de-do rhythm section that was best when attacked fast and up on the pegs, leading into a hard left turn with a sweet rut.

I never cared for Hare Scrambles, but the speed and wide and opened up technical sections of GP racing has my silly ass HOOKED!
 
Been to a Fast Traxx GP NQ1965? Vet261, hershey and day181 stopped by Nelsonville for some sandy fun at the GP today. Not far from Action Sports but a different kind of GP experience.
 
I just pulled up their schedule. I'll aim to hit their next GP race in late August.

Don't hold out, give me some stories of how it was. What's it like?
"Feed me Seymour, Feed Me!"
 
A 'Little Shop' reference? Yikes!
I believe I heard while on the line yesterday that August 9 will be a GP makeup race, replacing a MX practice on their schedule. Don't quote me on that yet though because I don't see a schedule change listed on their site or FB page so far. If that's the case it will make six SE Ohio GP weekends in a row, a couple at Fast Traxx being two race day weekends.

You are correct on the make up GP date replacing the motocross practice. I heard it also. That Sunday will be his only motocross on the bigger track also.
 
I'm anxious to try it.
Earth mapping the track the only drawback I could see is that Nancy will struggle to see the whole race well from one location. I'll have to take her quad so that she can be mobile.

Looks like a nice long layout.

It is hard to see the course from any one location but if you stand in the middle portion where it overlaps the motocross track you can see quite a bit. The lap times are in the 10-12 minute range. You usually get 4 laps in 45 minutes unless you are really moving. It doesn't have as much elevation change as Action Sports but is still fun with a mixture of open areas and some more winding tighter turn areas.
 
After two weeks off we are back again for another great day of Grand Prix racing here at the Action Sports Moto Park on Sunday, August 3rd. We are ready for everyone to enjoy great track conditions and fun racing action.
