Anyone want to do mini endurance racing?

[eboos]

Here is a 4 hour mini endurance racing series. Entry fees are cheap, and last years event drew 38 teams.

This could be fun. What are most people riding?

on a scale of 1-10 how serious is this?

[TheIglu]

I'm game. My power to weight ratio on these things will lead out team to absolute victory!

Who has a bike?

How serious as in the level of racing... probably not that serious.

How serious as in the intent to do this and put together a team... pretty serious.

Air cooled 4 strokes 150cc and under gives you the TTR 125, CRF 150F, CRF 110, KLX 110, ect. They also allow 65cc 2 strokes.

Clayton, PM me if you really want to get into this.

That might be a little small for this, but I am also going to be riding in a mini series in ME that has more classes.

[Lucas]

So it's not exactly mini lol?

[eboos]

Kind of midi moto.

I am interested... My nephews bike is a TTR 125 with YZ front and rear suspension. Not sure how AIR-COOLED bikes will do in 4 hour races, but it's a good thing they dont have July or Aug races (heat).

[Kurlon]

Interested, but my bike is 10cc over the limit.

I bet we can make that cheapie XR80 that's in the for sale section a serious rocket with a head swap and bore job...

Depending on the course and the track surface, smaller bikes can be better.

Depending on the course and the track surface, smaller bikes can be better.

For OVRP, it seems like the CRF 150R is the best ballance of power and agility, the track is open enough to get a full size bike around, but it would be tight. You can't use the 150R in this series though because it's liquid cooled. The 150F, 110F and the TTR125L would be best for this series. I wouldn't use a small wheel bike on this course.

boos - did you do ovrp last year? was it one bike per team? I still can't justify ruining a bike for 4 hours at a time for this... Just looking for info due to interest.

I didn't do it last year, but I read somewhere about Beaver Run or NJ, I think, allowed 2 bikes per team. I don't know if the same applies here. I can look into it further. If you are game, and they do allow 2 bikes, would you like to join Clayton and I?

[darkduc7]

this would be a ton of fun. a few of us make it down to the kart track in barre, vt once in a while. good stuff!

[lrrs313]

Sounds like a lot of fun.

I'm not sure if they will include the dirt section in this series. Let me call and find out.

If you've got a stock TTR, just make sure it's jetted correctly, aka NOT factory lean as hell jetting, and it'll be fine. 4 hours, 4 days, as long as you keep gas and oil in 'em and don't lean them out those motors will take a beating like you wouldn't believe. You've got to really overbuild the piss out of them to make 4 hours a gamble.

I don't think this will include dirt - as non-ESMRA functions, aren't supposed to use it (contractually).
