I'm in. Glad to see the show will still go on. The link on the AMA website went dead for a while when WERA pulled out of running the event. | ||

It cost $150 to run. It was $85 last year.... BUT.... I get my 4 man pit crew in for free.... Now I just need to find 4 people to put on my "Pit crew" | ||

I guess I spoke too soon. The original description said novices were welcome to enter but that everyone would race as expert. Now we have this... "Novice riders will not be eligible to race at this event. The 2008 RRGC is an Expert Rider event. " They also originally stated it was for 18yo and up, now they allow 16yo to enter. AMA needs to get their act together. They won't see my $150. | ||

There are races at VIR and Barber the same weekend. A lot of the peeps I know are heading south and not to Mid Ohio. Better odds for me! | ||

Novice riders will not be eligible to race at this event. The 2008 RRGC is an Expert Rider event. I'm out.... To bad, I had a bunch of people coming to watch.... | ||

Are Novices competing in Novice classes or are they throwing everyone together in one class? | ||

If they go back to how they did it last year... novice will be chasing novice BUT both Pro and Novice raced at the same time. They did a 2 wave start. Pros up front with a space followed by the Novices | ||
