2016 AMA vintage weekend

Mongo - I know it's very early and wera won't have schedules out for a while. However, AHRMA announced their 2016 schedule and are planning their New Jersey event on the same July weekend as this year's AMA vintage weekend.

Do you have any input into getting this event moved to a different weekend so they no longer overlap?

Thanks, Craig

 

It would be great if people could go to both events.

 

Thanks.

Now how about doing something so we get three Summit rounds next year

 

Thanks Sean!

 

WERA is going to NJMP???

Thanks,those 2 events needed to be separated 3 years ago, so both parties can profit..

 

Any chance of partnering with USCRA for their vintage weekend in September at NJMP?

 

I'd be willing to bet if WERA used it as a vintage only event similar to the way WERA gives points for the Mid Ohio vintage event it could work for the benefit of both organizations. The mid Ohio classes could be used and made to work. But I'm not in the position to make that call for either organization, though I would do whatever I could to make it happen.

 

the 3 days are already split 50/50 w/ the cars. total for the 3 days is 40k . saturday's racing is tight. ie: 8 races instead of 13 (normal at nh). and 6 lap races (10 races @8 laps sunday).

 

April always seemed to be a good Vintage turnout at Summit. Maybe because NE riders are trying to get an early round in after a long winter. If April is even possible anymore. Lately the May date has been too close to Grattan date to do both.

 

No SP in 2016, maybe try an April round if there is a SP round in 2017.

 

This is already a joint event with the VRG. As the guy who had control of the schedule when the event was held at NHMS, I was aware that it was pretty hairball coordinating two organizations through an event. Bringing in a third party would probably make it almost impossible. At NHMS the VRG had their schedule and the USCRA had their schedule. Since it was an NHMS run event, I also had a schedule provided to me by NHMS and I was given authority over the two Race Directors. Any discrepancies (and I always had a few) among these three schedules were always overridden by the one provided by NHMS. NJMP was a little more complicated as it had no central authority.

BTW, the event is held on the Lightning course.

 

Wera needs a one off vintage event some how..early..april was always great..the grids.at vir were always good in march. Everyone always wanted out of the snow


A north vs south..and run an open class/f1 sorta thing. Run what ya brung. But its gotta fit into a vintage class somehow..maybe with a nudge and a wink..

And don't forget the side cars.

A few years ago we had the north south.line drawn in the paddock at vir. Good times.

 

So, when is the Mid Ohio VMD event for 2016?

 

Nevermind.. Just got this email with the dates
