Nice, looking over the rules again the 110cc cutoff meshes nicely with the three series I posted, they all have a class break right around that mark as well. Do well here, be prepared for the other race series, perfect!

Craig, as I've got a busy schedule this summer, I can't commit to being at the track to help with every race date, but if there is any behind the scenes stuff I can do, let me know and I'll try to help.

Also, I'll see what the new chem is we're using indoors to deal with oil/gas spills. It's a pink semi-viscous liquid, pour it on the spill and you can watch it pull the oil up out of the concrete. Hose it off (or in our case two passes with rags to wipe it dry) and you're good to go in no time. Works slick.

Looks real good.

JohnnyB · 02-18-2008, 05:07 PM

Now I don't have ta take a second mortgage out !!!

So .., am I reading this correctly ?

Everyone will run 3 qualifiers and a 1 main event ? So if I only enter the 110 class I race a total of 4 times , yes ?

Which means you'll need more than that can of Whoop Ass in your avatar to keep your tired bones moving. : )

JohnnyB · 02-18-2008, 06:16 PM

Ha ha ha ... very funny ..

This should work out great , cause people don't need to enter a race that they are out classed in just to get some extra track time .

Josh .., were you run'n a 110 motor last year at the races I was at ? If it was ? That thing hauls the mail someth'n fierce .

evilempire · 02-19-2008, 07:03 AM

We are trying to maximize the riding time, while keeping the admin workload down. The 3 Qualifiers we only are concerned about the winner in each race. And if someone dominates all 3 they get a bonus and start in the back of the Main Feature and try to race thier way to the podium.

We don't know yet about track layout, I haven't met with the new track manager yet. I will look at extending it out if we can do it safely.

We are trying to let everone get plenty riding in from young kids, to my daughter on her scooter, to folks just starting out and wanting to try in Sportsman, to the Pocketbike group and having a somewhat level playing field for the rest of us. I know Evan is going to race Unlimited even though he has just a 108 - he likes the challenge, I'll race 110 Limited due to my weight penalty lol.

exposuremx · 02-19-2008, 07:16 AM

evil is this the track where they have the nascar collectibles shop? They race R/C cars there? If so, I grew up racing trucks and buggies there on the offroad R/C track... the paved oval must be what you guys are racing on? That's pretty sweet...

Am I thinking of the right place?

evilempire · 02-19-2008, 07:30 AM

Yep thats the place - We run a pavement course using the oval and infield. See Evil Empire Racing we have some pictures and video links thanks to Kurlon.

JohnnyB · 02-19-2008, 07:39 AM

Does anyone know how much it would cost to buy and run a class wining pocket bike ?

Dragon325is · 02-19-2008, 01:47 PM

A few friends and I hit 106 for a few races last season. We will definetely be back. Watch out for the Shadow, Dave Peterson. Hes tough to brake.

Dragon325is · 02-21-2008, 09:26 AM

This is what we are running in the 2008 series.

Hey Johnny-

To get a good super production class will cost around a grand.And then you go from there,You would need to get a few spares like clutch shoes some jets.You can spend alot if you want but if you keep it simple you will be much better off.You already have leathers so take your money that W is sending you and get a bike.

Check this bike out.If you can get him to come down by a couple hundred or so.I would buy it myself if I could.

evilempire · 02-21-2008, 08:25 PM

BTW I'm planning on having two pocketbike classes F1- Euros and F2- Cags. So the PB folks have competetive options just like the Minimotards.

Dragon325is · 02-22-2008, 06:44 AM

Damn it. Were one ATC short.

Dragon325is · 02-22-2008, 07:57 AM

We'll get four. So far were rollin on 88cc, 106 scut, and a 124cc three wheeler, let us know if your serious about lettin us run em, before we convert our beloved beer drinking machines into Evil Empire track weapons. Do we need full slicks ? or should we take belt sanders to our knobbies. Thanks Craig.

Dragon325is · 02-22-2008, 07:59 AM

There all based on the ridgid 81-85 ATC70 chassis. Heres the 88cc rig.

evilempire · 02-22-2008, 08:54 AM

I'm serious if you are. Only concerns are protecting the track and doing it safely for you guys. Tires - run what works for you, I don't think knobbies will hurt the track.

Dragon325is · 03-03-2008, 10:38 AM
