Only one more week (or so) until the circus pulls into Miller's. Anyone else going out to take in the racing live?

I was planning on it, but now not sure if I can make it. Have to watch on TV I guess. Damn...

I will be there FoSho! I am working the race. I will be in charge of all the volunteer flaggers on the track. Can't wait.

I'd love to but not sure what to do for half a week after? As i might as well stay there before I head further north.

[Mtnseeker1]

Maybe a ride or two while in town for some single track stuff?

Isn't that the Ogden track?

[Garbanzo]

Villapoto fired his entire family. Not sure morals are in question.:D Ktm is taking over.

Rash man rash but it helped him but then he grew up and became a Champ and brought the Fam. Back.

Spent all day Saturday out at MMP, what a huge amount of dirt they brought in! The racing was good (250s were great) and the spectating wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. All in all a good day of racing even with a little dust storm blowing through I was on the other side of the track so it wasn't nearly as dusty for us. I hope it comes back next year seeing how we lost the SX already.

Lost the SX?

[Garbanzo]

Yep, no Supercross here next year. Bummer.

I was at the AMA Outdoor Nationals at MMP for 2 1/2 days working as a volunteer in charge of the flaggers and spending all my time on and around the track. Yes, very impressive to say the least! There is a few bugs to work out but overall the feedback I heard from an AMA guy was positive. In talking with the event coordinator for Miller Motorsports I learned that they have a 3 year contract with the AMA and MX Sports so it will definately be back for 2 more years and hopefully more after that. As far as the SX, when I was working that race the AMA informed me that it should only be gone for 3 years but will be back for sure down the road. All in all, we here in Utah are very fortunate that we have had this much mororcycle racing, both dirt and track.
ALSO, they (MMP) are leaving the track in place, modifying it slightly due to clearing the dirt off of the Road Course so it can still be utilized. They are then planning on using the track for more local events, like the RMX Series and possaibly part of the Wild West Series.

I remember when motocross for the locals was held inside the circle jerks Bonniville race track in west valley off of 2100 south.
Man things have changed.

[maChete]

Yes, LoL, I remember going out there in my twentys to the MX races at Bonneville.

[accadacca]

Great info Chet. Tks!

Yeah I remember those days, never really liked that track. The newer RMR track was better, but still not too high on my list of race tracks. And yes we are quite fortunate to have these AMA races out here locally and hopefully we continue to keep one or both of them.

There's a small maybe private track just south of Beaver,UT. on the west side of the freeway.
On my way home today after some rain I seen someone out tearing it up.
Any other time I have passed it looked like it has been shut down for years.

[accadacca]

Guess who?
