Updates & Coughlin Toyota R3

Well we have purchased a new disc to help break up the chisel plow clods. I know that was a major concern amongst riders last weekend. Apparently, nobody shares my enthusiasm for such abuse, but oh well.

Another thing regarding awards. After numerous dissapointed faces, I plan to implement a new award policy. The flyer did say top six, which was to mean we would place up to six places, not a minimum. My fault. I will be handing out top six regardless of class size to the youth riders. These classes include: All 50's, 65's, 85's, supermini, Quad 50-70-90's. We will participation plaques for everyone outside of the top six for all 50's, and 65/85 beginner. As for the rest, we will do half of the class size, rounding up on odd numbers. For example; 6 riders = 3 awards, and 7 riders = 4 awards (vs 3.5).

On better note, R3 of the Coughlin Toyota Series will happen this Sunday, May 6th. Gates open at 6:00, signup at 7:30, and practice at 9:00. Racing will be under way 11:00. Open Practice Saturday, 11:00, $20 per rider, followed by pitbike racing. Camping is free saturday, and yes you can bring your pets. Just no pets in Mom's concession area! Concessions open both days, don't bring any food, you can't beat Mom's kitchen.
