March will be here before you know it which brings the biggest XC event to FL every year. Who all is going to be racing RD-1? Anyone planning on going up to GA for RD-2?

I'm going to stay down at river ranch that weekend to watch the racing so post up your class and # and i'll try and get some good action shots.

We were talking to them about getting a race at the Motoplex, but it's not going to be this year. $:-\$

If everyone keeps putting pressure on them we might get one in 2011. Everyone who races at the plex says it's the primo xc course in the state, I also have additional acres on the plex, I can develop for virgin trails..if I got a big race, I also have access to many more acres for camping and parking if need be.

Actually Dale Id rather not have the track as part of the course. MX kills my elbows and knees for weeks after as apposed to XC im all healed in less than 2 days But i will do what i have to do and pray that it does not rain

mudnuri · December 22, 2009, 07:43:24 AM

Shawn, the MX part is so minor and there is only tables and a couple rollers. Some big berms and you are back in the woods. It is well worth the drive. You are right about it not raining. They will race in it and it would suck!!

tony pitts · December 22, 2009, 08:00:16 AM

you haven't lived till you have raced in north ga in the rain its a blast....

your quad will be orange for weeks, seems like everytime i go it rains, i typically enjoy wet races, but that clay turns to slop, i went from 7th to 23rd on the last lap a few yrs ago after getting stuck, and that is some tough stufff to get unstuck from

Shawn · December 22, 2009, 09:35:59 PM

i have had my bout with georgia clay at durhamtown and i hated it but i know its part of gncc racing so i will do what i have to do to race.

tony pitts · December 23, 2009, 08:57:16 AM

when you can do 360's without trying its always a blast.

Dude that happens to ya every race you do! When ya gonna get a new excuse...... er uh reason I mean?
As far as Borich!?! Don't believe everything ya read Gearhead! Things aint that bad. But ya never know do ya?

gearhead400 · December 24, 2009, 07:42:13 AM

well they didn't say it's confirmed, so he could have a ride, but at the time of the banquet no one had signed him. Worse case, I'm sure he's got enough $$$ to race at least 1 season without a factory ride though. After all he does have other sponsors and the bikes he raced last year as well.

mudnuri · December 24, 2009, 08:43:24 AM

I raced the GA race twice and both times it was raining or wet. I spun out in the first tun like a circus clown in the little cars. Felt like such an idiot, LOL!

Right in front of everybody, including my family who drove to watch

And if you were riding the yamaha you had the same amount of power as the clown car too

So you went all the way around before the others made it int the woods...........man your fast

Shawn · December 28, 2009, 07:19:52 AM

Will be racing a full 2hrs plus 1 lap or is it just like the SSQSA and FTR where you must finish your last lap inside of the 2hrs? Or 1 1/2 hrs for the FTR? In other words......if i come in at 1hr and 55min and it is taking me 20min per lap, will i do another lap?

I found the answer in last years results page for the GNCC. If you come through the final check point before the 2hr mark you go out for another lap. Some racers did as much as 2hrs 32 min.
