Ok, just sa heads up, I am looking forward to racing on Sunday, fitness pending on the day, I am well up for racing !!

If i enter the 30+ class 20 " - approx how many riders will there be in that age group ?? Its so long since I have reced, i have no clue

3 Moto;s
Quarter Final
Semi Final
Main

ETC ... BTW have no expectations of being fit enough to get round the track, let alone get to the final LOL

Just interested

See you there if you are going onSunday, decided not to race on of my JMC,s but had purchased a NOS mid schoool robinsons pro from Alans to race on, if I like I i will probably go new school in the near future !

Jon

I wouldn't go expecting Moto's, quarters, semis, main. At summer regionals there is sometimes just 3 motos, semis and finals, sometimes not even semis, just results taken from an aggregate of the 3 motos.

There are not as many racers these days. I remember nationals bitd that had 1000 riders, a national these days will have about 200 riders.

Good luck though mate, kick ass.

There was only 5 riders in 30+ (masters) at Hayes last Sunday, you get
3 motos and a final but its an aggregate of 4 so you have to try in every
race, hope that helps. Kev.
