Memorial Day Smith Road - Medina, OH MX race

[atctim]

OK guys and gals - Smith Road Memorial Day MX race is less than one month away (May 25th). Let's get a head count and answer some questions for everyone. The bigger turn out the better!!! Super friendly MX track - and always tons of trikes on the track. I would personally like to see 3 gates of trikes this year. We got close last year with a trike count of 24 racing.

Who's In??????

I am!

[keister]

You know I'm there. I'll be jockeying your slow ole 2-fiddy around in the B class. Thanks for the loaner MXer. I will be taking delivery of my own 250R shortly, so this might be the last time Old Graybeard sees a track for a while.

[sandpuppi101]

I'm about 75% sure I'll be there with the 600 again,hopefully we're done planting by then.I have to drop off some special part's for some special people also,so I'll kill 2 bird's with one stone.I'll probably race B class and just take it easy again,or maybe C class,LOL ..

[seadoo650]

You know I'm in. Now I just have to make sure the MX bike will make it there. Top end is out. I'm working on having it redy though. If not, I got a spare 200X lieing around. Anyone who is around should really try to make it to these Smith Road races. It's as close to being right back in the 80's as you'll ever get. It IS the biggest trike MX event in the U.S. currently. If ya think "Oh man, I'd love to go, but it's too far" keep in mind we have racers from New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Michigan, Maryland, Ohio and some other place.......Where the heck is that??????......Oh yea, CANADA. That's right. So as a bonus. When ya come out for the race, you also get to see a real live Canadian. Not just some actor playing a canadian. Just don't get too close. He bites. Especially if you happen to have Potato salad on ya.

Note: Canadian will do tricks for potato salad and small amounts of American dollars. HAHA.

[Preddy05]

What time does it start? someplace close to it i could stay?
i work that fri-sun but have off mon and tue so i would love to come! What all needs to be on my bike? Let me know been wanting to make it to one of these!

Oh and How much is it to race?

[atctim]

Preddy05,

here is where we all stay (Motel 6 in Medina):

http://www.mapquest.com/maps?1c=Strongstown&1s=PA&2c=Medina&2s=OH&2a=3122+Eastpointe+Drive

Drive on out to Medina after work. We mostly eat at a wing joint beside the hotel - and have a few cold ones out in the Hotel parking lot before bed time (helps you fall asleep with all of the excitedness of race day bearing down on you). Practice starts at 8AM at the track - it's best to be at the track by 7AM to get in, signed up and geared up and unloaded. Races start at 10Am - but you never know the running order until they set it up that day. You will most likely be done racing by between 3 and 4PM.

Looks like a 3 hour drive for you - not too bad - we are up by Clarion - takes us 2 hours 20 minutes.

[techmaster330]

Man, that sounds like fun but I don't have anything worth racing. Hopefully sometime soon I'll be getting an R but right now all I have is a 200x...

[Mrs.Mosh]

Quite few guys run 200x's the last few times we went.

[atctim]

a 200X is a fine bike for Smith Road - that is not an excuse notto show up and run. Load it up and bring it out! There are normally 2 or 3 on the track there.

[ditchmud]

oh I can't wait! we will be there, bubba on the 350x and me behind the camera. I will also bring the helmet cam for some behind the bars video. I'm really looking foward to this guys.
To all of those contemplating about attending. Be there or be square! The OTC racers have built quite a reputation here in Ohio at the race tracks. The track owners Love us and so does the crowd. Even if you don't have a fast trike it's still a whole lotta fun and you will enjoy yourself.

[keister]

Preddy,
I think it is $10 per person for entry to the site and $20 to enter the race.

[Kintore]

Ohio and some other place.......Where the heck is that??????......Oh yea, CANADA. That's right. So as a bonus. When ya come out for the race, you also get to see a real live Canadian. Not just some actor playing a canadian. Just don't get too close. He bites. Especially if you happen to have Potato salad on ya.

Note: Canadian will do tricks for potato salad and small amounts of American dollars. HAHA.


LMFAO!

thats awesome, the biting part is not true, but everything else is :lol:


Ill see you there ladies, booked off work last night!

Holla!

hey snake, come get some!!!!! :w00t:

[dizasterzrfun69]

its only a 4 hour drive for us.... i'll see if we can try and make it

[TimSr]

Thanks for posting Tim! Maybe we can pry a few more folks out of their armchairs!

Last Labor Day, we had 26 trike racers total. 10 in "A" class and 16 in "B" class.

A few simple rules, that most people should know, but just a reminder for those who might be new. We are welcome there because of the way we conduct ourselves, our sportsmanship, and our lack of serious injuries. We got in there because of the 12 year relationship I have had with the track operators. My reputation, and our group's reputation is on the line every time we go out there. We want to continue our good standing. The owner told me they will even have 3 wheeler plaques for us this year.

This is a family event with people of all ages. Use discretion with your vocabulary when children are within earshot. Other people dont like continuous F bombs dropped on their small children, even if you drop them on yours.

Its a no alcohol event but they dont enforce it provided you give them plausible deniability that its being consimed, i.e., use a coozie, and are responsible. Racers are prohibited from alcohol consumption before racing. If you really need a cold one between motos, keep it out of sight and nobody will bother you. It doesnt help us to be seen all drinking before we go out on the track. Be discreet. Dont even show up at the gate half lit or bombed. Youll be removed.

Pit riding is a huge no no at at any race event. You putt to the track and exit the track at low speed, no spinning gravel, donuts or wheelies. Way too many people walking around the pit/parking area, and way too many have gotten run over. They are very strict about this.

We police our own, and I have a direct line with security. Sorry to sound like a hardass, but we dont need a couple of idiots to ruin it for everyone.

This is clean racing. Sometimes things happen, especially with new guys but DELIBERATELY ramming or wrecking someone will get you booted. Most of us have to go to work on Tuesday! Some quad classes tend to get a little rougher.
*******
Equipment needed: Pretty much any 3 wheeler. I even ran my ALT125 last time in the B class and had a few races going on in the back of the pack. A stock 200X or better will make you competitive in B class. A 125 or better will get you around the track and youll have a blast!

Almost all tracks require a tether kill switch. Smith doesnt really enforce it, but its highly recommended.

Rear number plate on grab bar. Any other place you put additional numbers will help ensure accurate scoring, such as front plate, or on your back. They sell them there if you dont have one. You can easily make one from a plastic antifreeze jug, and some black tape. Number should be 6" minimum. Try to avoid using a number thats already taken.

Gear required is helmet, boots that cover your ankle, pants that cover your legs, long sleeves, eye protection.

Cost is $10 to get in, and $25 per class to race. Both motos are scored, and both count for your final position.

Practice for Big Quads (and us) begins at 8:00am and goes to 8:15. You must be signed up to practice. They may end up giving us our own practice. You should be there by 7:00 to get situated and signed up. Sometimes theres a big line for signup.

Classes have been "A" and "B" up to this point. We may have enough for a third class, but I will need an accurate head count in advance to make arrangements for it. They cant add new classes on the fly. They will split a class over 15 racers. Classes are setup according to what I advise them. Dont call the track, or argue with track officials if you have a problem with the 3 wheeler classes, or 3 wheeler class rules. I only advise them on trike classes. If you have questions about quad or bike classes, they can answer your questions if we cant. You can race trikes in quad classes, but be prepared as many dont race as clean as we do, and dont expect to place out in front.

We hope we have more riders join us this year. Most of our new riders are locals who keep coming in more and more. We havent had many new site racers in a while. Most of these guys are fairly slow 200X riders who saw that you didnt need to be a pro on a racer to enjoy racing. Sadly, this tracks days are numbered, so enjoy it now, or regret it forever. Good luck, and safe racing!!!! OTC welcomes you!

[TimSr]

This will be a roll call post, so I can have an idea as to what is coming, and how to split them up. These are not classes! I just need to know what is coming to make some. Just quote this post, and edit with your info.

Count me in! As long as my R is still running after the drags this weekend. :lol: i don't get out of work till 7pm on Sunday. So i might not get there till late but i'll be there! i'll just load everything up the night before. Can't wait to get out of my arm chair!

[jason85atc250r]

i dont know how to add myself to the list but i'm definitly in for my trx250r and maybe the 85atc250r or some kind of trike out of my stash.:lol:

[Kintore]

OTC means trike brotha, ride a trike for once!

[ditchmud]

Tim, please add bubba (Corbin) on my 350x his race number is 276.

[MyMistress86R]

Well, you folks all know what I got in the works right now. I'd love to make it, as a spectator at least, but for my own benefit, I hope I can't be there. If things haven't turned for the better for me, I will commit to being there to watch and cheer.

[harryredtrike]

what classes do they have?i have a 200x,no chance against 250r's

[Kintore]

they have A B class right now. IF we have enough there will be C class.

Dont worry, plenty of people run 200x's, Hell a few years at TF a 200x cleaned house over 350x's.

[atctim]

I got beat by a 200X on my 450 hybrid at Summit Indoors in January! Do not let a 200X keep you from racing this track - plenty of people ride them there!

Come on out Honda Harry!

Hey now, that wasnt bike issues. Id take a look at the rider :lol:

just playin bud! you know you gots it. Brass or titanium? Maybe copper?

Im rockin the unobtainium right now, workin PRETTY well! :Bounce

[Tri-Z 250]

I'm up against the clock and assembly has yet to begin I'm trying my hardest to complete the Z...I would agree with atcTim this is a Frendly Outdoor mid 70's style track. I say mid 70's because the layout of obsticals are spread out. The natural terrain plays a big roll in the track. Race to race they switch up the route of the track even running backwards to keep it interesting. Rule of thumb- quote from TimSr "no matter how fast or slow you ride: there will always be someone at your speed at the race to battle with." So I take that as 1st time racers won't be alone...I've never gated a 3wheeler but have NO expectation but to HAVE FUN.:beer Excited to make the event and trying hard to make it.

[Russell 350X]

If I get the Z put together this week or next I may come out, granted that I can get out of call-outs at work...The Z has a tether, the 350X does not, I saw the rules....but would it be a big deal for me to run it without one? The only reason I would run the X is if I didn't get the Z together in time.

I hoping to make it, but no promises.

[atctim]

Wow - this is getting big!!!! Just one more week guys - can;t wait to see yo uall out there!

[Kintore]

Just talked to the snake he is ready to rip!



little does he know im a cert snake hunter and trapper!

[atctim]

Josh,

What are the chances after the race you could make me a new pair of Snake Skin Cowboy boots?

[ditchmud]

All these people maybe will have to add a c class:naughty:
So who is calling who out? Any smack talk to get us motivated? Josh is snake hunting. Jake the snake must have slithered through his tater salad:lol:

[Kintore]

New boots are no problem buddy!



Thats right, he went and slithered through my tater salad and he ate it!


Might as well call for war IMO!

[seadoo650]

Hey Josh, a little of subject, but I was just at G.F.S. and they have their TEN pound tubs of potato salad on sale for $6.99. What a bargain.
http://www.gfs.com/en/gfs-marketplace-stores/whats-on-sale.page?

[Kintore]

I just pinched myself, thought I was in heaven for a second!

we need one or two of those for TF!

[TimSr]

All these people maybe will have to add a c class:naughty:



They can start 15 at the gate, so as it looks right now, we are probably just going to have A and B class, and from the people signed up, it looks about half and half. With only 3 "cheater bikes" we shouldnt have a bunch of B class sandbaggers. ;)

[Derrick Adams]

I'm shooting to be there. But not on a trike. I'll be running 2 stroke quad this year.

[jason85atc250r]

Derrick
so we will be battling in what class? i plan on double checking my axle hub nuts maybe tripple.:lol:

By the way if anybody cares i got 16th of 28 in the 36+ C class at the Somerset PA GNCC national last saurday. i finally finished after 2 years of bad luck the 3rd times a charm. here is a action shot

[TimSr]

I'm shooting to be there. But not on a trike. I'll be running 2 stroke quad this year.

Derrick

Im glad your going to make it, but " 2 stroke quad"????? What the heck are you driving now? You change bikes like I change socks!:lol:

You and Jason can run Senior Quad (over 30) or 2 stroke quad, but two stroke quad will be less competitive. Ill have to send a line to Flying Brian to get out his TRX250R for that one.

[Derrick Adams]

I want to try to win the 2 stroke class, and I can only afford to run one class. Otherwise I would be whooping butt in senior quad too.

[ditchmud]

Derrick, I won't get in your way this time!:lol: Sorry about that;) The 450r has been running awsome with the mods that you recommended.

[TimSr]

Okay, lots of questions about who is running what class, so this is my best guess. Add or modify as necessary.

haha still doubtfull....leave me in B class! lol. seriously

[Mosh]

I want to try to win the 2 stroke class, and I can only afford to run one class. Otherwise I would be whooping butt in senior quad too.
If I had the energy, money, and any other plastic other than unmolested stockers on my TRX....
I would have something to do about that.:D

[Derrick Adams]

As good of battles as we have on the trikes, I can only imagine how much fun we would have on the quads!

[Bryan Raffa]

Wow! Seriously? I figured you could ride at least half as fast as you post! :acr Thats okay. I can understand why an overweight, badly out of shape, 48 year old man, with a blown out rotary cuff, and a blown out ankle who runs an 85 TriZ with a DG pipe, and walks around the pits with a cane would be intimidating. :naughty: Since youll be in the other class, maybe you can get me a cup of coffee to wash down my Geritols, and maybe hold my cane and my bifocals for me while I race the grownups. :lol: Sorry we dont have enough for a powder puff class. :cry:

[Louis Mielke]

BBBBBUUUuuuuuuurrrrRRRRRNNNNN! oh!

[Kintore]

AWESOME!!!!!

I just got home from Rick and Dawns......


had a blast yall cant wait to do it again!

I want more video and pics!!

[Bryan Raffa]

I didnt realize I got a case of monkey butt,,till this morning,, when I had to scooch my trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro down a header wall setting 40' Trusses! good thing the crane Broke a hydro line got 6 set.. ahh.. beak time .. slept the best ever last night..:lol:

and I DID Place 3rd Overall...

[Kintore]

Hey Raffa-
http://www.daybag.com/files/SANDBAG1.jpg

[atctim]

Wow - what an action packed weekend. Wanted to say thanks to Rick and Dawn - what a blast - and the best burritos ever!

It was nice to meet some of you guys - Preddy05 and his gf - Gag and family - Fastz28 - and some of Roger's friends - it was good to see Russ and Raffa. Good to hear everyone made it home safe and sound!

It was some really wild racing - and even though I only placed 10th out of 11 in the field - I still had one of the best days of racing ever! So much action in the back of the pack. I found some of my weak spots - and learned from my mistakes. Snake is the man on the track - the kid is fast. Kintore hit the track with some solid solid fast laps. And just when I thought TimSr was becoming washed up he gets in front of me and for the life of me I couldn't get around him. So much for the cheater bike Sr!!!!!!! Not much of one I guess :) Sr is still as fast as ever. The trike life guys are deadly fast out there as well!

It was also good to see Willy F Peepers out there on his new digs. Get some seat time, some spacers, and a thumb throttle - and you'll be banging bars with the best of them!

[Bryan Raffa]

Hey Raffa-

[Bryan Raffa]

Hey guys I forgot .. We saw the Batmobile leaving Rick and Dawns:lol: :lol: :lol: and Russ lost his hat cuz he was so excited,, he was half way out the window!:lol: thanks Rick&Dawn for the hospitality!!! and pancakes!;)

[TimSr]

This is my 12th season out at Smith Rd, and things sure have changed! Thanks to all who came out to make this event so great for all the families who came. Aside from the racers, we appreciate the best pit support crew in the world, offering help, taking pictures, and videos. You are the ones who keep bringing in the new OTC draftees. I had a super time, as always, and I enjoyed meeting our newest guests, and those I havent seen in a couple of years. We sincerely hope to see you again soon and O hope you all had a good time. I was only sorry I was unable to spend any time at the pre-race gathering. Ditchmud, we appreciate all of our OTC photographers, but you continue to outdo yourself each time!

Only thing I might suggest to all who post on youtube is its a good idea to include event and year in the title,(Memorial Day 2009) because after a few years, its hard to tell which ones you are looking at. :)

Ive got some pics and videos to post when I get some time. Happy Trails!

[hondude450]

Good job to all the racers. and to my boy Fastz28 # 73, for his second overall.

:lol: That is hillarious Josh. Great job, and congrats on the 1st place over all!!!

[keister]

I gotta ask, what was up with the deer head - apparently after I left.
That would suck to come around a blind corner at Smith Rd and have a deer standing on the track in front of you.
That could crack your front fender!!!

[Russell 350X]

Awesome pics guys! Can't wait for Labor day!

[Preddy05]

Labor day is prob gonna be the next one i make as well. It was a blast Hope to see more people out the next time! Love the video and pictures. Was my first race and won't be my last!:beer

[SYKO]

[TimSr]

TimSr, A guy at work was asking about TF and then mentioned Pitracer web site and the fact that Smith Road had a race a couple days ago. he said he heard there was a bunch of 3 wheelers there. Dang it's a small world!!! He said there was a picture of a guy ( he couldn't remember your name ) on a yellowish 3 wheeler in the one thread. I said the guys name wouldn't happen to have been TimSr was it. he about crapped that I knew you and that I had your number in my phone. He is going to try and get to Smith road for the next race so he can go back in time.
All I can say is you all got a following now from all over.
Howdy

[Bryan Raffa]

really cool HOWDY glad I could be a part of it ! was that the biggest showing yet?

[atctim]

Raffa - I believe last Labor day was bigger - but not by much. Normally Labor Day is the biggest ones for trikes. Come out to it - Mark My Words - 30+ trikes this year for the labor day race!

[FastZ28]

I uploaded a couple more videos, and one is still uploading. It should be done in about an hour so just look for it under my stuff. Sorry for the rookie camera operator but she tried her best.
Heres the 2 latest additions.

This is the B Class moto 1

This is the A Class moto 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ofhskK-lM8

B Class moto 2 is still uploading but the camera person seemed to focus more on me than I would have liked. Cause the last lap I was just cruisin cause I was sucking wind and my arms were pumped so much.

Its a very small world, and I really cant go to an organized event of any kind without running into people who know me. Used to be you could go to any CRA event and mention "that guy that races the three wheeler" and everybody knew who you were talking about. Now the assumption is that anybody on a three wheeler at a CRA or outlaw racing event is associated with me. This is why I am very particular about what activities and events I allow my name to be associated with, and who I invite to them. All it takes it one idiot to do an act of stupidity in my name, and OTC Racing could be a group of ex-racers without a place to run.

Hey Louis how come you got last on the big bad 500?

[Kintore]

I think they kinda messed up some orders as well. Snake was a lower place than mark, so they just switched at the track!


Louis blew his 5-0 up the day before, he was on ATCTIMS ole greybeard aka my ole ported/piped 250r
