Its that time of year again when Ohio's county fairs begin, and many now have motocross. One specific race promoter, Patriot Promotions aka Faircross Promotions does the "Faircross Series", (as well as Summit Indoors) and they are very trike friendly. (Not all Fair races are part of the Faircross Series, and other have different rules and policies.) They are willing to give us a trike class wherever we are willing to make a showing. These races are CRA sanctioned, and the CRA is heavily involved so its hard for the promoter to get around requiring the CRA card at Fair races, even though the 3 wheeler class is not a sanctioned class. (Our class is not sanctioned due to lack of participants and NOT their unwillingness to sanction.) CRA card is $20 per year. Race cost is $20. Fair gate admission fee is usually $8-$10. Tether kill switch is required along with helmet, eye protection, and above ankle boots. This is for all trikes (w/suspension)and all skill levels and for the purpose of putting on a good show for the spectators. You dont have to be an MX superstar to be a part of this!
This is late notice, but 7/27 - tomorrow is Summit County Fair in Tallmadge, OH at the corner of Howe Rd. and SR91. They run a morning set of races and a separate afternoon set. They are treated as two events. All Faircross races are a one moto format. As it look snow, only TimJr and I will be running this one.
Morning signup at 8am, practice 9am, Races begin 10am.
Afternoon signup 3pm, practice 4pm, Race 5pm
Medina County Fair is Wednesday July 30th. Medina Fair has grown so much that they run bikes on Tuesday night, and give Quads (+trikes) a separate night. The track is decent for a fair track, and its setupo with quads in mind. Expect a few thousand spectators in the grandstand. Looks like we have a handful of riders at this one.
signup 4pm, practice 5pm, race 7pm
