Anyone want to run Supermoto 9/17 and 10/22?

[Kitt]

I am going to put some SuMo wheels on my 250F and run the next 2 NESC (North East Supermoto Challenge) rounds.

I have been chatting with the organizer who looks to have her head on straight, and is hoping to get AMA support for 2012 and run a 7 or 8 round series.

They have open practice every weekday (including the friday before these races).

The 4 hour endurance race of air-cooled bikes that has been mentioned here before, and many LRRS guys attend is running the following day after each of these 2 NESC racedays.

Novice classes are 250/450/open. 17" are not required AFAIK, so sportsman tires will work if you want to "test waters".

Dirt section will be incorporated.

I'm not sure yet. Havent been down there yet, I was supposed to go last Saturday but mother nature had other plans. Are there any reasonably priced hotels/motels in the area?

middletown is the biggest town nearby... all kinds of chains for cheap. if you have an enclosed trailer, you can camp there, and it may be possible to crash with some of my local family down there.

You're on a 450, right?

What class(es) are you considering?

[Chippertheripper]

Danny, how long is the drive for you?

[Kitt]

I'm happy to give rides along my path as well.

[Chippertheripper]

Your path is out in west cuddybumfuck.
But thanks for the offer!

Edit: that might read like I was being rude. 'tis not the case.

[Kitt]

well I know albany area is closer than driving all the way... Don't know you though, for all I know I could give you a ride and then you could suck and make me look bad.

[Chippertheripper]

I do suck. But standing next to my ugly ass, you'd probably look that much prettier.

[Dannyf]

Should be about 4 hours. I'll have room for one more.

[Chippertheripper]

Maybe october if I still have a motor.

[Kitt]

[Kitt]

ok.. I am thinking of novice or amateur 250/open.. depends on entries

[Dannyf]

Maybe october if I still have a motor.

Running motors are over rated.

I'd go if i had wheels. Gussing the knobs wont cut the cake.

+1, THE 450 is gone. The wheels for the 250 for supermoto came from that one.

Borrow em from smutty. Shiv him if he says no.

[Kitt]

bump... ordered up a caliper bracket.. it'd be nice to run a bigger rotor.

[Dannyf]

Waiting for my brembo bracket to show up. Looking forward to seeing if I need to shave down the caliper at all for spoke clearance.
