SCFTA Rounds 11 & 12

By now most people know that the November race got rained out. Bad news/bummer/no fun!

The race has been re-scheduled for December 3 & 4, same format. Gates open at noon on Saturday, 8 am on Sunday. If you're planning on overnight parking, bring lots of warm clothes, wood (or other "green" heat sources) and anti-freeze of your choice.

The official website is http://www.southerncaliforniaflattrack.com/ , and there is much more information there, such as schedules, photos, point standings, entry forms and much more.

So...
Lodi is running this Saturday (TT) and Sunday (short track), October 8 & 9. Who's going?

Next Friday, October 14, is the Perris Night-Before-The-National short track. The 1/4 mile cushion short track should be fast & fun. Freddie Edwards has been playing in the dirt, and the surface gets better every time. Big purse for the Pro riders ($3,000?) plus all of the amateur classes from 4-year-olds on 50s with training wheels to 50+ riders on the "fire breathing twins", and everything in between. Even quite a few girls and women starting to participate!

For more information see http://www.southerncaliforniaflattrack.com/

Saturday night, October 15 is the national at Pomona, on the 5/8 mile cushion oval.

SCFTA Round 9 at Perris Raceway

Coming up Saturday, September 17: Round 9 of the Southern California Flat Track Association 2011 Short Track Series on the quarter mile cushion oval at Perris Raceway.

September and October will be busy months for flat track racing in Southern California. This can be an opportunity to test and tune against the competition for the weeks ahead!

Bikes from 50cc to big twins will be running, plus different classes for age (both bike & rider) and skill levels from training wheel 50s to National level Pro riders. With 22 classifications, most racers have an opportunity to run more than one class.

While no knobby rear tires are allowed on full size bikes, minis (up to 150cc) are still able to run knobbies.

With four races to go, many class titles are still up for grabs.

Next race will be October 14, Friday night, before the AMA National at Pomona. A $ 2,500+ purse will draw National talent for the Pro races that night!

Gates open at 1 PM, practice at 5, races to follow.

The March 5th practice, lunch and awards may seem like it's a long way off, but it's rushing this way in a hurry! We're clean through January, next practice is February 5th.

There will be a speedway race on Saturday, February 19th. Times TBA, check the schedule or call.

The 2011 season officially starts March 19 & 20. Another hangover national? (thanks Emmy!) Let everyone know what's up so we can fill the track again!

There will be a celebration of Wayne Hosaka's (www.flattrack.com) life and contributions to flat track, and life in general, during the Sunday March 20th race, with a cash purse for to Super Senior 60+!
