    Said bikes are welcome on any open practice that does not have a kart race the next day.

    So any weekend with out a kart race.

    Also said they can do track rentals if some one got a group together.

    We had 3 Groms, 1 TTR110, 1 CRF150r, and a Yamaha 80 there today playing in the rain.

    Practice hours are from 10am-5pm.

    We used to geta bunch of bikes and I'm sick of ridding with just two or three please come out and play!

    They charge $10 for pit passes and another $50 to ride so $60 total for a rider.

    Is the facility in decent shape? This would be a doable day-trip for me.

    $60 is a tad steep for kart track practice, but the drive time is more of an obstacle than the cost. What kind of speeds can you hit on the straight? Or a better question might be what gearing do people run on an XR100?

    You can get some pretty decent speed on the backstretch caus that 90 degree left in the middle of it is not as nearly as sharp as the map displays

    I'll go to PIRC for $50! A little steep for me and my drive for a mini "practice/track day". But I'm a cheap ass and don't like to travel in my gas hog! Lol

    I feel like we've invited people at least twice, and ended up riding alone ;-)

    Those two dates you invited me (to Beav) were bad days for my schedule at the FD.

    The track is in great shape, one corner (slowest corner on the track)has some patches the rest of the track is great.

    Gearing, I have ridden a 150r, a bone stock Grom, a ttr110, and a KTM 65 never a XR100. I would say about the same as Circleville. Not near as high as G&J.

    I was touching the rev limiter at G&J on my 150r at the end of the straights if I was really on it. With the same gearing on Circleville and East Lansing I'm half way through 5th at the fastest part of the tracks.

    I think Dave and Chris took some video I will see if I can find some.

    No good this year (work sucking every bit of my time) but will have to finish the CR80 and make it out next year!

    Just notice that you are in Marshall. I will put that in the memory bank. I spend a good amount of time up until recently between along the corridor between Chicago and Detroit.
