News: It's now 2008 and racing season is approaching...
Apparently the warmer weather recently has given everybody
the SM bug. We've had a lot of recent calls and e-mails inquiring
about the 2008 series. So, we would like to thank everyone for their
interest and give you some updates. The bad news
first: Everybody's biggest question has been about the schedule.
It's not set yet. We're waiting on some other people to finalize
their schedules before we can set firm dates. We try to work around
the AMA SM series dates, AMA Dirt Track, Superbikers2, District
17 MX if we can, and we kinda have to use dates when our track isn't
already spoken for. But the good news: There is a
high probability of at least one new class, for POCKETBIKES!! Depending
on the feedback we receive, there may be more than one class for
these little bikes. Of course they will only run the pavement. We
are also still looking into finding insurance to cover an atv class. Also,
there will be 5 races again this season. We are still trying to
put together a school, so maybe this year it will happen. There
will continue to be no transponder fees. Entry fees will most likely
remain the same. We will also continue to tinker with the track
layout, including at least one backward race. So, for any further
information, stay tuned to supermotojunkie.com
