    "guys who feel they have no business even in a novice class."

    It does not mate to me. If I come in last it's because I'm there to have fun, not kill my self. LOL

    I may give the novice class a try this year? I am 38 and I have learned that stupid hurts and the older you are stupid hurts even worse. Me racing is stupid. But as Ruel was saying how many times can you line up with that many trikes? I am still up in the air on it.

    I hope youll give it a try. You wont regret it. Honestly, I think our novice classes will be a little thin this year anyways, as our pool of novice riders have geeting getting more experienced and been moving up. Just take it easy and dont ride beyond your ability. The worst that can happen is you get last place, which still trumps "armchair racer" any day! What trike will you be racing?

    350x for sure...

    I may even give the 2 stroke class a go too? Either R or Z depending on which I can borrow from Ovhonda.

    I am bringing my son this year. He is 15 and will be on a 200x and I am sure he will want to race. What class would he be in? He has not raced before?

    If you havent raced before, you may want to stick with one call unless you feel you are in super physical condition, but then you can always drop out of one if after the first moto, you decide two classes may be a bit much. Just let a scorer know so she can scratch you off.

    We have a mid size suspended class for your son. He will be running against TimJr,(12) and most likely Brandon Hall and probably other kids, and maybe a few adults in that class too.

    That's great Tim thanks! I'm may just stick to the open novice class (350x) I am not in that bad of shape nor am I over weight. There is really no excuse for me not to be in better shape. My fiancée said that turning wrenches in the garage does not count as exercise? I think it does

    Zack (son) wants to run the 200x in mid suspended and the 110 in unsuspended.
    He is excited to say the least.
