Class 5 only

[steve0we]

Totaly respect you as you well know Steve but I think comparing body parts is quite a bit differant that changing the whole power plant. I'm ok racing the ECO guys either way but as a whole I'm a bit sad to see the change evolve as we all know it will. I guess that comes from being an old dude who loves keepng the VW alive. Long live 5U!

I totally agree, but when someone posts that the class has always been the same etc, I have to disagree. I to am sad to see the motors change. I have been a life long diehard VW person in many forms of racing.

I think the only thing that sucks worse than the motor change to different makers is putting all my time and effort into the car and showing up to see 1 other car in the class.

How many class 5U just raced in last weekends race? It was in Baja.... home of the VW right? That would be a ZERO, big egg, nadda, zip, nix....


And on a way better note... Dave, can you post up a few photos of your 5U.. what it started as and what it is today? Its amazing to see how long of a race history the car has

Ryan, our next race is The SEPT Midnight race in Lucern...I can always use additional pit and mechanic support...if you come out, you can be lead mech...PM for more INTEL.

I am confused. I have seen mention fo the "Chili race" which is the second weekend in September. Bessemer Mine rd be damned!. We are shooting for that one and racing C1, mostly to integrate a new driver that is a long time, WORCS Pro rider and son of a former Biz partner. What is the "September Night Race"?

I think people are confused and mixing the MORE chili race with the SNORE midnight race. They are on the same weekend

Yes I know what happened in Lucerne Valley that day and I have no disrespect for anybody who was affected by that accident.

Matt, the biggest issue the BLM faces in Cali (Barstow, Lucerne) is the inability to close down venues to casual off-roaders when a race is underway. This makes it very hard for the BLM or the promoter to police spectating because it can occur and gather anywhere on the course. A stop gap is the mandatory setbacks.

If we can close these areas down during a race, you could expect better spectating.

I was told by SNORE to register for the race with MORE...... Same race? It's got to be, just some confusion? Now i'm confused....

According to Jim and Ron at MORE they are the same race

The MORE/SNORE KC highlights chili cook off midnight special

It's a combined race so the MORE regulars call it the chili cook off while SNORE regulars call it the midnight special.

Okay, now this is getting interesting!

Will the race be at night? Or, day?

If night? Will the Chili be for breakfast?

Either way, it will be fun!

Will the Chili be for breakfast?

It is a night race...for the MORE guys, similar to the Freedom 250 night race...it is a combined points race with MORE and SNORE...This is official...it is in Lucern also!! Don't know how MORE will handle the Chili cookoff aspect though...
