Yes 3 wheelers can run. If there are enough we can have our own class. It is 6 months away so hopefully everybody can make plans. So far myself and Outlaw24 have committed

Just got off the phone with the guy that puts on the the race. He said if we have at least 6 guys we can have our own class. We need to decide what we are going to run and preentry forms in. We have 6 months before the race so we have plenty of time for commitments.

I looked on the website and can't find an exact date. Do you know the actual dates this event is occurring? That would help me make plans.

Cool, thanks! also, if there is six of us can/will we do teams 3 teams of 2? Or is the idea that we are all going head to head? Or is that up to us to decide?

That is for us to decide. He said there is a motocross track that is easy on friday. I personally wouldn't mind doing teams with everybody else. And having our own individual race

I doubt I'll have a bike ready for this. The 250r is staying in flat track/TT mode and the next one on the list is the Coke Syrup Tecate.

Yeah what the hell was I thinking? Yeagers got an extra ride.lol

The 86 Tecate probably won't be done until next year. It's going on the way back burner and I'm going to try and focus on the flat track/tt racing this year. I'd love to make some of the Kansas short tracks as well, but we'll see what the wife has to say about it.

Do you have to share the same trike in the team race or can you have 2 machines?

Do you offer garages & race ports?
To reserve a garage or race ports for OK Gold Rush,contact Hallett Motor Raceway. (918-356-4814)



Is camping allowed near the track?
Camping is allowed at track near OK Gold Rush Grand Prix, from primitive camping to 50 amp hook ups. Contact Hallett Motor Raceway about getting electrical hook ups (918-356-4814). Bathrooms with showers are available.



Will there be food?
There is a restaurant located at track tower, serving breakfast, lunch, and an early dinner if you get there soon enough.


Is there any Practice?
No, the we have never had practice for the Gold Rush event. We don’t even start laying out the track until a couple of weeks before the event.

Some of the pro class riders looking for an advantage will sign up for one of the team events on Saturday so they can get used to the track. We do not change the track between Saturday and Sunday. So if you ride both days you will have an advantage over somebody on Sunday who didn’t race on Saturday.


I have never done this race before how should I set up my bike or quad?
Out of an estimated 8 to 11 mile track you only spend a little over a mile actually on the asphalt road course. We recommend leaving the bike set up for dirt, that’s where you are going to spend most of your time.


How many people make up a team?
The team race is for two people to a team.


Do you have to use the same bike in the team race?
Each person in the team race can ride their own quad or you can ride one quad, it’s completely up to you. You can even switch back down to one quad if you damage one during the event.


Do you have to alternate every lap on the team race?
That is totally up to the team on how you switch off riders. You can have a guy ride two and half hours and the other guy ride a half hour. You can switch every lap if you wish. That’s completely at your own discretion on what you and your team mate want to do.


Can I pre-enter for this race?
YES!!! You can download the entry forms – fill out completely (please) – then either FAX to 918-446-6650 – or send with check or credit card info to:Oklahoma Gold Rush - 6105 New Sapulpa rd – Tulsa Ok 74131

What if it rains or is bad weather?
We race!

Maybe I should have rationed that info out . lol
Are you and Garrett going to run as a team? That would be fun. I wish my wife wasnt so worried about my son getting hurt and let him go ride with me. Maybe next year.

Steve I hadn't gave it that much thought. Garret has a total of about an hour of experience on a trike so we would have some work to do before then.

Time is getting closer. We need to get some commitments so we can have our own class.
