    Perhaps if we are concerned about varying information from different websites I can enlighten everyone, since I have been working directly with the owner/promoter since last December and have actually played an active role in actually organizing and putting things together.

    The EDT site is the series site, operated by the AMA. They have posted Fischer's general program as he has given it to them, but they have no involvement in the 3 wheeler races which is why they lack much in the way of specific info. The first times were posted in error.

    Fischer Cycles is the promoter's facebook and website. Mr Fischer does not spend a great deal of time on the internet, and his sites reflect that. He won't be answering his phone, which is the cycle shop number after Wednesday.

    Those exhibition races are strictly up to the promoter, so they are in his hands, and not the EDT or AMA. Some of the specific details for the 3 wheeler races have still not been determined, and won't be until Friday evening after we get a general overview of what has arrived, and after a meeting with one of the AMA reps who will assist in details including specific class definitions. I can't stress enough that this is only exhibition, and as such will be very informal, with very simple rules and classes.

    If you want the latest, first hand information that is directly from the owner/promoter, I have gone to the trouble of typing it up, along with links to updates as they occur. It also includes the correct address. That info is at:

    http://otc.myfastforum.org/about1005.html

    If that info does not cover your question, you can post here (which I check infrequently) or email me at Leadboot@neo.rr.com, or call me at 330-208-2200. Those will all work until Friday morning.

    I don't want to cause any more uproar, but this was from the beginning, and still is an OTC organized event, between us and the owner/promoter, so I actually do know whats going on, and I'm not saying this to anger anybody.

I know you try to corral everyone into your site.. but most choose not too.. just trying to help. and make it go as smooth as possible ..I dont need a long drawn out post.. just the info we need to know. and I thought you said it was the promoters event.. in the same post. pretty much the same deal.. I deal with at a AMA Hillclimb when I do a exhibition.

    This wasn't for you. This was for anybody who was looking for first hand information. No membership required to view. Its a link. People will figure it out. Yes, OTC is operated from its own website, and is not affiliated with 3WW. We post links on 3WW as a courtesy. If people choose not to use the info provided, I have done all I can do.

    What info is needed?? I have never seen so many issues with this, I have raced at as many tracks as anyone and with just as many promoters. Its simple, You know where the track is, you know what time you need to be there for signups. That is the only info needed, the rest will be discussed at a riders meeting.

    If you don't have something constructive to say, please don't bother replying to this thread. Same goes for everyone else. If you'd like to share information or discussion about the race and its conditions, by all means, have at it. Or go to Tim's site like he posted the link to. But denigrating the situation is not going to help it.

    What I know is ATV Scene,and AT LEAST 2 magazines are covering it. I'm SURE there will be more. I put a request into Dave Despain from Wind Tunnel @ Speed to just give us a snippet for having the AMA " LOOK" at this. I highly doubt anything will come of it,,but ya don't know till you try! This is a BIG deal for the community,,one and all. Thanx again to ALL who will be representing the rest of us!

    I just want to wish you guys alot luck and have fun. Husky and I sort of grew up here and this track is near and dear to hearts. I was playing at pine lake as teenager, racing what ever class, worked at the track as I got older. The Fisher's will put on a great show, Bud wants more events if people will come. I wish I was strong enough to be out there and play with yall, but common sense is prevailling. I think Michigan sand is softer than Ashtabula clay, anyways show'em what you got have fun! be safe!!!! and Represent. just typing this had me dreaming of my Tecate and my american racer go cart wheels we use to run. damn what a ride

    How is that not constructive?? You and i both know there is a certain group of people making issues about things that really are no biggie. Im just saying shut up and race!! All we as racers need to do is show up and and act in a professional manor, This is the one of the biggest quad racing series in the country, im sure they will have zero problems but yet some have huge concerns. These guys ACTUALLY know how to run races, and thats what they do year after year. So why are things being made so difficult? Now lets go in circles and have a ton of fun
    Now after you read this Billy i expect you to remove it (as a matter of fact i want you to)

    About the television coverage, for the trikes... no, I know last year one round of the edt series was on lucas oil's "on the edge" but it only covered the pro quad class. I have several friends that have been on David Despains Wind Tunnel, IF i win, i will see if i can pull some strings and get on there :P

    The promoter was shocked to know what was on the EDT site. It is very innaccurate and you should Ignore it!

    Be prepared to run your trike heat at any time after Noon when heats begin.
