Any more thought on how the Battle races are going to be scheduled? Bikes and quads on separate days?

AND at least one manufacturer maybe two in for contingency for Spring Series!

I'm pretty sure that will work out awesome.

The practice Saturday, from 8-2, is that for bikes and quads?

Sounds great regarding practice. Like John is asking - is that practice for both bikes and quads? Need to monitor the practice groups better than last year's.
Do we know yet if Briarcliff and Chillitown will be running this same schedule?

I'm back and forth.....depends on which day you ask me.
I see both sides and the potential benefit, but I worry about riders getting confused on the days, and I don't have lights.

That time of year is long days...if you start at 4...your talking what 7-8 motos going twice? With one 4 lap practice?
Or have an early practice...run quads...then practice till 7 or 8...
Or cut open practice out altogether.
It's Battle races...worth considering a different format.
This isn't about bashing quads, but a format that would allow maximum race entries.
Or run 1 Moto of quads on Saturday and the second on Sunday?
These are just thoughts...don't matter to me.
Either way a bike only day will bring more entries.
Communication eliminates confusion. Also the same format across all three battle races would be best.

That is bikes and quads for practice. Those practice hours are not set in stone yet. I want to make the practice as long as possible without cramping the quads race schedule. We will firm up the times and announce everything at the banquet.

Spent an inordinate amount of time talking about this today......I think it has potential. I am not worried about getting it done by dark at all. I think we could start at 5 and still get it in. We are putting a lot of thought into it, we will let you guys know.

Actually you race 3 classes the last class really only costs 5 bucks. If you take into consideration the Rocky Mountain gas program. Pretty slick.
I hope the huge decrease in cost of fuel is gonna boost turnout.

That's still a while away George..... We would be blessed if the fuel prices stay down. I know one thing for sure. The boy and I will be doing some traveling this summer if they do.
