racinfarmer Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Any bets on if they'll be racing or not this coming weekend? Racers were told they'll be racing with no parking on the lake, but it was 62°F at my place today, it the mid-50's at the lake, a possibility of 4-7 inches of snow, following by 40's Thursday to ??? That could make for a hell of a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'd be on a well aged Procross, so I figure that is good enough for a top 10 ahead of every Catalyst in any class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnstang Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 This will not be popular. I think ice racing being combined with "terrain" racing is lame. Two completely different disciplines for racer and machine. I don't care about lake racing. I don't see other series alternating flat track and enduro races. People want to know who is the best at one discipline, not a Jack of all trades. If they can't do real xc races then just don't do it and call your series lake racing.

You are not the only person that feels that way. Remember, ice le mans has been part of XC racing since the 70's, so it isn't something new. I like having both on the schedule, both present their own challenges, but the ice makes it harder for the average guy to get out and try it once. With XC racing being as small as it is, I do not see it possible to run two different series at this time. A small side note is it is increasingly more difficult to get race permits for ditch and trail races then it was even 5 years ago. I'm not sure the entire reason, but my understanding is it is a state level thing, and some local clubs want nothing to do with racing on their trails to boot. 33 minutes ago, ZR6000RR said: This year?

On the bold: They ran the same, stupid concept here in AK around 10 years ago. So a guy wanting to race their series now has the added expense of having shocks rebuilt and lowered for ice or buying a second set of shocks for ice on top of a second track studded for ice. I don’t know how the sponsorships are down there but up here a vast majority of guys are paying for entry fees and everything else out of pocket here in AK. Adding even more costs is a sure way to reduce participation. Most sponsorships available are just a discount on product. The average Joe Blow XC racer isn’t getting cash money from anyone. 2nd Bold: Sounds more like inept COR people who can’t figure out how to fill out forms with your state.

What makes you think it is any different down here? Have to hustle your way on to race programs for deals on sleds, PG&A. Discounted parts makes it a lot easier. Brian from USXC had a hard time in areas getting permits too. It isn't a forms issue, it is government employee(s) with an agenda issue. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
