Please keep in mind these start times are approximates, we do our very best to keep our events on time but sometimes mother nature leaves us not so favorable track conditions that may cause minor delays.
Medical insurance is the sole responsibility of each competitor.
We all need to work together to help keep the facilities clean and the landowners happy so they will welcome us back for future events.
The transponders are a one time cost of $10.00, sorry we can’t rent them out per race. It will be a one time purchase and as long as you don’t damage it, lose it or switch helmets, you should be good to go for quite a while. If you already have one of these stick on style transponders from any other series, you are good to go as long as it passes the read test at registration. Also there is no “annual renewal/programming fee” with us!Stick on style transponder
Track Regulations:
Minimum penalty is one lap deleted!
Racers whose disabled vehicles are towed back to the pit area by race officials, for any reason, are not eligible to return to competition. Any laps earned by a racer that returns to competition after receiving a tow back to the pit area will be removed. If a racer desires to repair their machine and return to the competition, they must decline the offer to tow their vehicle back to the pit area. This rule does not apply to racers towed only a short distance in order to dislodge the vehicle from a track obstacle (i.e., mud pit, deep rut, ravine, etc.).
Our crew cannot tow out a machine without a rider with it.
Class & Overall points will be distributed as follows:
| Points | Place | Points | Place | |
| 25 | 1st | 10 | 11th | |
| 23 | 2nd | 9 | 12th | |
| 21 | 3rd | 8 | 13th | |
| 19 | 4th | 7 | 14th | |
| 17 | 5th | 6 | 15th | |
| 15 | 6th | 5 | 16th | |

| 13 | 8th | 3 | 18th | |
| 12 | 9th | 2 | 19th | |
| 11 | 10th | 1 | 20th |

Don’t wait until you get home and email us about it once results have been posted online. After 20 min’s of posting at the track, all results are considered final and awards will be presented!
Class Plaques are guaranteed to the top 3 places in each class, then 1 per every 5 riders afterwards (example: 8 riders = place to 4th; 13 riders = place to 5th place; 18 riders = place to 6th; 23 riders = place to 7th, etc.) To win an award, a rider must complete 50% of the laps of the class winner.

DNF’s and DNS’s do not count towards the required 9 races for a championship. Class championships will be determined by the rider’s best 9 event finishes. So you will have 2 throw away races for 2022!
Ties for year end class championships or other class positions will be broken by the most first place finishes throughout the season, if tied in wins, they will be broken by the best finish in the final points race of the season.
Please take notice if you move, change or are advanced by WEXCR to another class you do not get to take your current points or the number of races you have raced with you to the new class. So please choose your appropriate class as you could cost yourself a championship if you move or change during the race season.

photos of the week
As the Nations of the Nations approached 2010, it was time to look at the greatest moment of the US national team in the nation - when the 1981 team first conquered the world. But instead of taking photos of the '81 team (O'Mara, Sun, Hansen and LaPorte), we thought we'd be looking nostalgically at team member Chuck Sun...because he was a long way from becoming an MXDN national and champion. and how he is today (inset).
Learn more about Chuck at www.chuck-sun.com.
BEHIND THE FACTORY HONDA TEAM MANAGER ERIK KEHOE
Honda team manager Eric Kehoe.
MXA: What were some highlights and highlights of your season?
Eric: He had some ups and downs, Andrew Short had good races and some not so good. Unfortunately, Davy Millsaps was injured, which is not very good for our team. The addition of Kevin Windham at the end of the season was pretty exciting and pretty cool. Kevin is a great rider and personality and it was fun. We definitely had our ups and downs.
MXA: What are people hiding behind the scenes who won't see people on TV or read the broadcasts?
Eric: I can talk about something we've really been working on this year. We weren't happy with our starts last season so we really worked on it. I won't go into details on how we did it, but we really worked on it and Andrew Short's Nationals output really exceeded expectations with his starts, he really improved in that area.
I don't know the statistics on my head, but he has about eight of the last twelve holes or something like that. He's at the start right now. It was something we worked on behind the scenes and it worked for us, he just needs to work on the second half of the moto.
Wyndham? He doesn't ride like a Supercross guy.
MXA: Was it a part of the starting strategy to set up the bike?
Eric: It's a combination of bike setup, rider technique and a focus on using and getting the most out of power.
MXA: How much bike development happens in a season?
Eric: It's constantly under development. We have a staff here whose only job is to constantly try and improve things. After every race we reevaluate the weekend, look at the positives and negatives and decide where we need to work. This is a weekly constant throughout the season and we are always looking to improve.
MXA: How did Kevin Windham come into play in this process?
Eric: Kevin has a lot of experience and is from a completely different team.
The Honda Geico Powersports team also has a great bike, so coming over and giving us your opinion on our bike setup is a good thing. It's a fresh, new take on how to improve things further. It was a positive learning experience while on board.
MXA: There are a lot of rumors about the sponsors that will be on the team. What's in the future of the team?
Eric: We can't officially announce our team or anything else. We spoke with Trey Canard. He has been a Honda racer for quite some time and we look forward to continuing to work with him. We're going through a season with Andrew Short right now and we're waiting to see how things play out. Davi Millsaps can't compete right now. We are still working on the budget and trying to put everything together and the team will be completed.
Shorty.
MXA: Does the team's strategy change when you compete against different types of riders? Is the game plan for Dungey different from Reed or Carmichael?
Eric: We watch each of the guys every week.
Dungey has a lot of parts assembled right now. He has confidence, his bike seems to run well, he rides well and he is in good shape. His starts sometimes seem to be one of his points of the week. We look at every piece of the puzzle and focus on any areas we can take advantage of. There is always a strategy, but you never know what might happen, so you have to be as prepared as possible to be there and take advantage of everything that happens.
MXA: Is there anything other than the norm when you have an extra week like this?
Eric: We have a routine that we go through every week. When we have a day off, we have extra time to work on some things that we usually don't have time for. With racing in the back, it can be difficult to pass many challenges. With rider travel schedules, rest is just as important as getting out and working hard, so testing can be difficult. Since the day off, we can do more tests.
MXA: Are you doing anything different for Southwick this weekend?
Eric: It's a pretty difficult track.
Obviously, tire selection and suspension setup are slightly different due to rough, high-speed sandy conditions. The bike setup will definitely be a bit different and it will definitely be a rough, fun event. The women's class will be back and we can't wait to see Ashley race. This was the highlight of the year, Ashley rode very well. There's something exciting going on there and Southwick should be fun.
CATALINA GRAND PRIX REGISTRATION POSTPONED UNTIL SEPTEMBER 7
When it was first announced that the famous Catalina Grand Prix would return after a 52-year absence from motorcycle racing, much of the SoCal racing community was excited and skeptical. They were excited because, back in the 1950s, Catalina was the premiere of motorcycle racing on the West Coast. They were skeptical because Catalina is a conservationist. The Catalina GP was a huge deal. Held on the famous island ( 26 miles from the sea, Santa Catalina is waiting for me ), winning the 100-mile race was the top prize for a motorcycle manufacturer.
In fact, after Chuck "Fits" won in 1956, Minert built and sold a replica of his race-winning motorcycle, the BSA Catalina Scrambler.
Foots Minert is now 79 years old. Here are the Feet with the BSA Catalina Scrambler.
Everyone hopes that this famous race can be done, but it looks like an uphill battle, as in the next article of Avalon Bay News indicates. Race entries have been postponed until September 7, 2010 www.thecatalinagrandprix.com.

HOW WE WORK YOU CAN GET SPONSORSHIP THAN THE PROS CAN
Here's what Randy Valad of MSR had to say: “When you create your resume, don't forget your contact details, email address, phone number. Then, basically, what we are looking for in a resume is a short biography and a story about yourself. Include your last two years of racing experience and results. Pictures help. We suggest you take a face shot as well as some riding shots. Include a list of other sponsors you have had in the past. You also don't want to overdo it with your resume, keep it short and to the point. Turn on whatever you want, but we don't want to read the book and we don't have time to watch the DVD.
“Being in school and studying well is a plus. Sometimes we ask people to send in their report cards to make sure they do well in school while racing. We try to stay away from the kids who go to home school... it's good to do well in school because there aren't many kids in the races.
“Besides, where you live matters. We hope to spread sponsorship throughout the United States.
We don't want to pack one area with a hundred riders and just have a couple of guys in another area. Part of our reason is that we don't want to hurt dealers in this area. We're printing out a map, and obviously Southern California is big. There are many dealers and we sponsor many riders in this area, but we also sponsor many riders across the country.
“For those looking for a big deal, we'll look at championships won and achievements, but for the discount, we're just looking for someone who races consistently at least a couple times a month.
“You don't have to go to big races to get sponsored. We're just looking for someone to race locally and promote the brand in the best possible way while they're racing with our equipment and when they're out on the track with stickers and stuff.
“Free equipment deals are rare, especially in this economy. We don't do as many free deals as we used to. Discounts are what we really aim for with our rider support program and just give kids a chance to be sponsored.
“You don't have to be quick to get sponsored. We do sponsor all classes and disciplines. From beginner to pro, we also sponsor SUVs and ATVs. Last year we had about 800 riders sponsored across the United States. You don't have to be a professional or go for the Nationals. If you're going to big races, that's a plus, but we don't turn down kids who just race locals.
“There are three ways to get MSR sponsorship. First, you can go to our website (www.msrmx.com) and fill out an application. Second, you can send your resume to MSR MX, 1055 Montecito Dr., Corona, CA 92879. Third, you can email your resume to: [email protected], but you must do so by October 31st.”

The ranch overlooks the Anza Valley 100 miles southeast of Los Angeles.
The Ranch is a brand new motocross track that replaces the old Rynoland in Anze, California.
The grand opening of the Ranch took place last weekend and MXA went to Anzu to check out the new track and get all the information. The ranch was built on 700 acres of an Indian reservation by Mark Peters, who has extensive experience in the business (Petersbuilttracks.com). When we arrived at the facility, we were half expecting the warming Rhinoland track. It was actually hard to tell that we were in the same place. Mark cleared a ton of bush and created a bunch of new paths. The area did not resemble Rhinoland. They have an 800,000 gallon water tank and are about to expand another 800,000 gallons. The track was wet and prepared when we arrived, so we hurried out and rode.
Main track.
At first we drove along the Main Highway. Their goal with the main track was to bring "a national east coast feel to the west coast". As with most new tracks, the dirt was amazing. He was a deep power robber and the type that makes anyone feel like a hero.
There were loads of jumps and there was one of everything. There were no fast straight and dangerous jumps. There were good elevation changes, but no big climbs or descents. The track was really long. Mark said Ryan Villopoto was out on Friday (along with Dean Wilson, Nick Wei and some other pros). In addition to receiving positive feedback, he posted Villopoto's lap time of approximately two minutes and fifty seconds. For most of us, that's more than three minutes. A good path for a water carrier (or an ambulance) was laid along the entire route. Mark already has plans for a new section and cut it down a bit. He also plans to put clay in the corners to help the mud hold water longer. The main track was fun and meant for those who like turns but will leave the jumper wanting more air.
1980s track.
The 1980s track was similar to their Vet track and was really fun. It also had big elevation changes, more dirt, and even safer jumps. This track was really good practice for turning and picking a line because it wasn't there right away.
We always turned and focused on setting up the next move when we exited the one we were in.
Mini track .
The mini track was built on one of Rhinoland's big bike trails and it was impressive for a mini track. There were a lot of jumps, but they were all safe and perfect for the 60s and 80s. Plus, if dad wanted to stand at the entrance, he could see the entire path.
There were two more tracks still under construction. 1960s or "Vintage" was laid out by Preston Petty and has no jumps and the Vintage guys are already excited. For the youngest children there will be a Pee Wee track. It will have small obstacles for beginner riders.
Fresh dirt on the new track will make you a hero.
The Ranch will be open on the 3rd and 5th weekend of the month on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The track is open these days from 8 am to 4 pm. The admission fee is $25.00 per practice day. Spectators are free to practice. Costs $10 for overnight parking per vehicle.
For more information email: [email protected] or visit their Facebook page under Rancho.
CHANGING LIFE WITH ONE LAPTOP TIME
Wisconsin motocross rider Perry Pritchard of Fond du Lac went on a trip to a church in Haiti four years ago - before the earthquake. Pritchard, 42, loved helping the people of Haiti, so after the January earthquake, Pritchard wanted to do more to help. Beginning September 11, he will use his motorcycle to raise money during the 24 Hours for Haiti fundraiser at Gravity Park USA in Chilton, Wisconsin. Prichard's goal is to break the Guinness World Record for the longest laps on a motocross bike by one person in 24 hours. His fundraising goal is $100,000.
Perry Pritchard.
Pritchard will be given a five-minute break every hour for refueling, drinks, restroom breaks, and necessary bike repairs. A tank of gasoline lasts about two hours.
"I can do it," said Perry Pritchard. “I may not be able to break records, but I can do it within 24 hours. When I sat down and started thinking about what I could do to raise money for Haiti, my first thought was not to sell pizza or Girl Scout cookies or anything like that. I love riding motorcycles, so when I asked friends and family what I could do, my brother-in-law, Ken Davin, said, “You have to ride your motorcycle for as many laps as you can and find people who will promise for a circle". I thought it was a great idea."
All money raised will go towards the continued work of Lazarus Project Haiti, a local initiative to help the poor in Haiti and its three-year goal to help build a new health facility in Gantier, located in Ouest, Haiti. The organization also provides homes and education for orphans and disabled children. If you would like to help, please go to www.24hoursforhaiti.com
LOOKING FOR A ROCKER BIKE THAT WILL BE ON FRENCH OIL FRY?
It started life as a Kawasaki, but Hayes turned it into a diesel.
Military motorcycles are not the same as the off-road motorcycles they are made from. Unlike the Kawasaki KLR650 they are based on, the latest Marine Corps military bike should be able to traverse two feet of water, carry plenty of ammo, and travel over 300 miles on a tank of gas. Oh yeah, it can't run on gasoline because all military vehicles (from tanks to trucks to jets) must use the same JP8 and Jet-A fuel.
This would be a cool clutch cover on your KX450F.
Hayes Diversified Technologies M1030-M2 JP8 is a 670cc military motorcycle. CM capable of running on JP8, JP5, JP4, AVTUR, JET-A1, diesel and biodiesel. The M1030-M2 JP8 is Hayes' fourth generation heavy fuel engine. The Advanced Multifuel Technology engine produces 20 percent more power than previous generations. Hayes has many patents for diesel motorcycles, and the M2039The 0M2 represents a breakthrough in military ground vehicle technology. It produces 33 horsepower, goes from 0 to 30 mph in 3.
3 seconds, and has a top speed of 95 mph. For more information go to www.hdtusa.com.

INSIDE ME CRAZY CANADIAN: GARY WARBOCK'S CUSTOM SUZUKI DR650
John Minert: “I visited my old friend Spencer and his father Gary for Christmas.
To be honest, when I first saw the DR1997 Gary Vorobek 650, it was an ugly, old, purple beater. If this was anyone's bike, I would laugh at him for buying it. I didn't laugh at Gary, I knew it would be great when he was done with it. From time to time, all red-blooded American men get thirsty to decorate their bike or car, and end up going overboard and spending too much money. It's in our nature. Gary takes that masculine trait and turns it into a borderline illness. He specializes in turning clankers into super stunts.
“Gary's son, Spencer, and I were classmates in elementary and middle school, we loved going on adventures on our dirt bikes. Thanks to Gary, we didn't just go to the desert or mountains in a pickup truck and sleep in a tent. We rode in comfort and style in our own motorhome and drove a regular VW Beetle turned into a Manx buggy. Each of these things took Gary years. Everyone got tons of tricky little parts they made and aftermarket tricks they matched flawlessly with the original.
Gary has always gone out of his way to strip everything down to powdered frames, rewire the electronics, or replace low-quality parts with aircraft or street bike parts. If the panel has notches, Gary will replace it with carbon fiber, and if it requires four bolts to attach it, Gary will probably mount eight. His latest project was an ugly, purple DR1997,650 which he bought. Gary pulled the engine out of the frame, took it off for powder coating and a complete overhaul.
"Dashboard made of silver fiberglass and carbon fiber composite sheet. The frame that holds the Trail Tech Vapor and supports the dash is welded aluminum and then powder coated. The lights on the Vapor are left and right turn signals, a neutral light, and a high beam. On the right side of the dashboard is the 12V plug for the Magellan crossover GPS. There's also a Powerlet cigarette lighter socket and a small LED that doubles as a digital charge indicator that monitors battery voltage. To the left of the dash are two switches for low beams and LED daytime running lights, and below the Heatroller's heated gear controller outputs and controls.
“Right side engine guard made of 3/8 tube and then powder coated. The base plate is a Moose block but with five inches welded to the back for better mounting and coverage. Gary used AMP side housings and oil filter covers. He custom made engine guards, then powdercoated them. It had the head milled and ported (pentagon valve work) and used a 10:1 compression piston. It also opened up the airbox.
“On the front of the bike, Gary installed ProCycle LED daytime running lights with fabricated ¬-inch aluminum mounts that use the lower fork tube clamp bolts (Gary found the supplied steel headlights vibrated a lot). Gary used the CR250's stripped and inverted fender to protect the engine without blocking the oil cooler. He used a Britannia Composites fairing and attached it to the forks so it turns with the bars. The Brittania Composites windshield can be adjusted up and down. The tank and fairing are painted by Superbike in Poway, California. Gary used halogen headlights, ZETA handguards with aluminum mounting rails.
Small LED lights are built into the handguard and fairing, which work as turn indicators. The front end also features an RSW fork brace with neoprene treads.
“To stop all the extra weight, Gary installed an oversized EBC front disc and braided steel brake lines front and rear. He also installed a speed sensor from Trail Tech. The front suspension uses .50kg/mm Eibach springs with Race Tech emulators (omitted). The rear shock is a Cogent, also lowered because the Sparrows are so short. Gary used 7/8" high flex ProTaper Kawi rods and rod extensions so he could use the stock control levers. He installed a Scott damper and a welded-on sand-rolling tower. Gary used TKC-80 dual-sport tires.
“Gary used a combined LED tail/brake/turn/license plate YZ Sportbike. The rear fender has carbon fiber where the old taillight went. Pipe FMF Q4. The license bracket is made of aluminium. The stand is custom made 3/8 IPS welded and powder coated. Gary also installed an Agrisupply container with an airplane clamp on one end and another curved aluminum bracket on the front, along with the existing plastic tool bracket.
“When you look closely at the bike, you notice details such as shield wire bolts, Zerk mounting bolts on the brake lever and swing arm pivots and other specialty things. Gary even modified the stem by removing two inches and replacing it with a 3/4” Class 8 welded bolt, making it easy to adjust for extra weight.
“Gary's love of craftsmanship has disappeared from his son Spencer, a mechanical engineer who travels the world working on satellite equipment. I learned a lot from Gary as a kid and now I design and test motorcycle things for life. It's been seven years since Spencer and I went to school together, but we both look forward to returning home. It's like being a kid, going on a motorcycle trip again, experiencing and working with Gary's latest creations.
HOLLAND AND SOUTH AFRICA WATCH NO SHOW FOR MXDN; ITALY STILL THE BATTLE AND THE AUSSIS ARE CHANGING
Tyla Rattray reports that the South African federation does not want to pay to send a South African team to Lakewood, Colorado to compete in the Motocros des Nations.
While Rattray might drop his bike in the Pro Circuit semi-finals that will support Dean Wilson, he is too old by FIM rules to race the 250 class. So Rattray would have to get a KX450F and find two South African teammates…who also would be willing to pay in their own way and someone who is under 23 years old. Likely candidates (although the number of children under 23 is limited) are Gareth Swanepoel, Grant Langston, Ryan Newton or Kerim Fitzgerald.
Previously eliminated by the Netherlands. They had problems when Geoffrey Herlings said he didn't want to go to MXDN because Holland didn't have two other riders that would allow Holland to do the A-main. Herlings was then wounded and the case was moot.
Tony Cairoli, KTM and the Italian federation have yet to work out a compromise.
As everyone knows, the Italian team is still in the air. Italy wants team to wear traditional blue jersey with Italy on the front (worn by Italian teams at the World Cup) but KTM and Yamaha want their logos on the front.
For now, this means that 2009/2010 450 World Champion Tony Cairoli and 2008 World Champion David Filiperts are not currently on the team. But will there be an Italian team? The only question is Cairoli and Philippaerts.
Proposed Italian knitwear.
In the meantime, when Chad Reed quit the Epstein-Barr game, Jay Marmon was named to the Aussies in his place. Marmont, Dean Ferris and Brett Metcalfe will appear on the Australian team, according to Motorcycling Australia.
Jay Marmont said: “This is a dream for me. I was wondering if I would ever get my chance, because in the last few years, despite the fact that I do well in the country, there has always been a strong group of riders based in America. When I got the call I was in seventh heaven and now I'm so excited to go there - with riders I've never ridden before and most importantly represent my country.
“I've always been a team player and have been consistent in my races, so I'm going to do my best to put myself and the team in the best possible position.
Dhaka (Marmont team manager Craig Dack) likes to remind us every time there is a des Nations race that when he moved on to the race they were on the highest placed Australian team and that no one has won yet so this is mine chance one is better!
“Do we have a strong team? on paper it might not be as strong as in the past? but this is a team that has nothing to lose, so everyone is going to go there and give their all, and we hope we can do well.”

MXA MINI-VIEW: MX Sports Nick McCabe
There is still a lot of talk about MX Sports' recent formation and their role as AMA/Toyota Outdoor Motocross Series promotional and commercial rights monitors . The new mode was announced at Supercross in Las Vegas, where Nick McCabe also appeared among the many changes big and small for the 2009 series. Nick was hired by MX Sports top player Davey Coombs and, like his duty at Ducati, where he has worked for the last decade, Nick will work as Business Development and Marketing Manager at MX Sports. In fact, this interview was done while Nick was wandering the streets of Monoko looking for starter salad after spending a whole day trying to pitch the 2009 series.
of the year outdoors worldwide collection of television network executives.
While some people have wondered how the guy who ran the Italian street bike company could have had any positive impact on the motocross world, I can vouch for Nick's passion for motocross. While I've spent the last few years sucking up to him every single Ducati chatter and Troy Bayliss gossip, Nick only wanted to talk about dirt bikes and double jumps. Here are some of what he said on a variety of hot topics.
ÿ
MXA: Why don't you share your motocross accomplishments with us first?
Nick: I've been a motocross fan all my life. I started riding when I was seven years old and I raced in the 34th district for many years. After I graduated from Boston University (with a degree in business management), I took my AMA card and my old caravan and followed the citizens trying to qualify. I can't say that I qualified for any national championship, but I tried for several years. When I was at Ducati, it was a big joke that I was such a fan of off-road bikes.
My boss always got mad when I did a dirt bike.
ÿ
MXA: Okay, let's move on to meat and potatoes… what's going on with MX Sports and what the hell are you up to?
Nickname: There's a lot going on right now. Obviously, we talked about the many new changes at the press conference in Las Vegas. We still have a lot to talk about, and in the coming months you will see several press releases about changes, big and small. To be honest, our first and most important task is to bring back the brilliance and prestige of the street series. It is safe to say that for many years no one controlled the direction of the sport. The AMA was there, but actually played more of an operational role. I don't think anyone really implemented my vision for the future of the sport. Our role at MX Sports is to work with NPG and back up the series. I think you know between me and Davey, we're not just a couple of car guys that come with cut and paste. Our goal is to improve the sport without turning its head.
MXA: Speaking of turning the sport on its head, one big change for 2009 is the move to the Saturday Nationals, but we've also heard rumors of a unified motorcycle format - right?
Nickname: The transition to a single bike was definitely considered and discussed, but MX Sports definitely thought it would be too many changes too soon. We are traditionalists, love outdoor motocross and two motors. But that being said, if we saw that a single moto format could bring the sport an unprecedented deal on TV with big money to pay the riders, we would definitely consider it. Right now we are very busy fixing the low hanging fruit.
MXA: How do you feel about the sport of motocross?
Nickname: I think this is the greatest sport. I also see the sport as a brand, a brand no different from Nascar or Supercross or MotoGP. Motocross is a premium product with which the customer has a direct and passionate relationship.
I look at him the same way I look at Ducati and Ducati owners. The experience must be satisfactory and reflected as a mature and serious sport. I know that in the last few years, many people have felt that the sport is dying, like flat track running. Davey and I strongly believe that motocross should not only be enjoyed by die-hard fans, but this is where the flat track is now. We want the sport to develop and we think that the changes we are making will help start this process.
MXA: What about the only Supercross mindset that exists today?
Nickname: We don't like it, but we can understand it too. Motocross is a tough sport and competing in national outdoor competitions requires a lot of money and effort. In the past, once the Supercross season was over, everyone was looking forward to competing in the Nationals. We now have teams that only aim for the Supercross season. We want to change this. We want the best riders in America to compete in national competitions.
We would definitely like to restructure the wallet, but it will take a little time. I think any guy who finishes both heats should be able to make enough money to cover his expenses for the weekend and maybe even have enough money to help them advance to the next round. We hope that Sunday runners will also help restore this sport. These are the local guys who make up the sport and should be considered part of the package. We want to see a lot of trucks in the pits in the championship! And, as Davey said in Las Vegas, we'll keep the Glen Helen gate open for James Stewart!
MXA: It's getting late in France, so last question, how is the TV deal going?
Nickname: I think it's not bad. Now the championships are televised in about 20-25 countries, and we want to increase this number to about 100. Really, you just need to knock on the right door and make a good presentation.” Will have to tweak a little. regarding the sale of rights to certain networks. We want our series to be broadcast on as many channels as possible, and we need to look at developing as well as developed countries.
We are open to deals with larger networks that can attract a lot of viewers. A lot of people here know about national championships and having foreign riders in our series helps. The Australian networks definitely see the value of running our program thanks to Reid, Byrne and Metcalfe, but I know the German was discouraged that we don't have registered German riders. My approach is to get the best possible deal with the larger chains. We have a good product to sell and with a bit of luck I'm sure we'll be able to raise the profile of street dramas.

MXA MINI-VIEW: Ron Hinson and MX Clutch Technology closed body Hinson Clutch. We sat down for a quick chat with Ron Hinson who, along with his brother Brian, runs the family business alongside the company's founder and their father, Wayne.
Wayne Hinson founded a company that produces high quality clutch parts for both factory and private customers.
ÿ
MXA: What is your personal experience in MX/racing where you started?
Ron: ÿ We raced quad bikes as a family as a kid and I personally raced MX and TT nationally in Class B. My father Wayne (President & Founder) was a tuner for Gary Denton, 8x Champion Grand National ATV.
In 1990 they broke a couple of stock clutch baskets that weren't available on the aftermarket at the time, so my dad built a basket that didn't break." Thus was born the first Hinson clutch component. We started our business at 1992 year.
ÿ
MXA: What value did your product have that led to a significant increase in popularity?
Ron: This is a serial product that has the same quality and standards as the finished Works parts. We do not cut corners and create everything that is possible.
ÿ
MXA: What teams are working with Hinson?
Ron: Team Red Bull Honda, Team Monster Kawasaki, Team Monster Pro Circuit Kawasaki, Team Rockstar Makita Suzuki, Team JGR Yamaha, Team Yamaha from Troy, plus many of the best marque teams.
ÿ
MXA: What's the most practical clutch maintenance advice you can give every driver every day? Ÿ
Ron: Always, always, always maintain about 1/8" free play on the lever and bearing, use a high quality petroleum-based engine or gear oil and change it after every ride.
ÿ
MXA: What's on the product horizon for Hinson?
Ron: just We have just started offering a line of friction/steel disc spring kits. We are always developing and improving our product and looking for new ways to think outside the box when it comes to clutch. The new steel baskets are a prime example of this. In a world where everything is getting lighter, we came up with something heavier to make bikes easier to ride thanks to the flywheel weight effect.
ÿ
MXA: What about slipper clutches - are they being developed for MX bikes now?
Ron: Yes, sliding clutch technology was actually developed for two wheels in World Superbike form. Cable clutches have also been used in SXs and MXs for quite a few years now, Yamaha has been using performance slippers on their four-stroke race bikes for years, and Yamaha of Troy has been using slippers for at least three years now. Then of course they are absolutely essential when it comes to Supermoto, there is not a single top rider who does not use them.
Their real benefit is that engine braking negatively impacts traction when the rear wheel locks up and bounces/overshoots and swerves off bumps, with a slipper it allows the rear wheel to maintain traction so the rider doesn't have to struggle with the rear end . The reason you've heard of such a massive improvement on an ATV is because its rear end is essentially 50 inches wide, which makes rear end feedback much more important.
ÿ
As for what's new, we have a new series of high temperature clutch springs that resist the loss of strength due to the high temperatures of today's four-stroke engines. We also have a new clutch (clutch cover, basket, inner hub, pressure plate, clutch plates) for the 2009 CRF450R. The cool part about this basket, inner hub and pressure plate is that these are the same parts the Honda team has been racing on for the last 3 years, so they are extremely well designed!

These are really tough economic times. Everything seems so expensive. But before you get depressed, consider for a moment the fate of the many high-end cyclists who face the prospect of paying the same price for a new 'road' bike that weighs less than 15 pounds as you would pay for a brand new 250F! Or here's a cyclist who already owns the bike of his dreams and is now looking for trendy cycling shoes to go with. Take these beautiful Sidi Vernice Ergo 2 shoes with Sidi full carbon outsole, heel tension system and aLorica upper. Sure, beautiful shoes, but the economic reality is that handmade Italian shoes sell for $550! To put things into perspective - it would probably take about six of these cycling shoes to make just one MX boot! That is life! For more information, Click here .Y

MXA MINI-VIEW: meet marque Buck Ford
ÿ
MXA: How about a personal experience?
Buck: I am 19 years old and live in Vacaville, California. I started riding when I was nine and racing when I was 10. My first motorcycle was a Yamaha PW80.
MXA: What were some of your career highlights?
Buck: This year I won all of the Class A regional qualifiers for Loretta Lynn. I finished in the top six in Ponca City twice in the 250A class. It was a tough year for me because I crashed at Mammoth and got a concussion, then crashed at Loretta and got another concussion. Now I am not racing anymore, just training and trying to get ready for the 2009 Supercross season.of the year.
MXA: So what are your goals right now and do you have any plans for next year?
Buck: Now my goal is to work so that I am fully prepared for 2009.
My plan is to go through all the rounds of West Coast Supercross and do as many highways as possible. I hope I can get into the top ten at least once. Right now, I have an offer to ride for the KTM All-American Fire and Police Team. They had a trial race in Perris which I won, so they are ready to help me. I know the MDK/Warthog team will also have a tryout soon and I already have a relationship with MDK. I thought I'd give them a try too because they have a really good support program. Another possibility is that one of my current sponsors, Sheehan Construction, is also thinking about building a team to have something in it.
Look, newbie changing his tires - it can be done!
MXA: What's the hardest part about being successful?
Buck: The competition gets harder and harder - you'll never have a break! Once you hit a new plateau and think you have class, there's always a new guy that you have to watch out for. Since there are no supercross tracks in northern California, I currently live in my trailer in southern California so I can train on a few supercross tracks here.
I sleep in the Wal-Mart parking lot for a few days and then head to the hotel to take a shower. I would not say that these are real difficulties, you just need to be ready to do what is necessary.
MXA: What's the best thing about racing?
Tank: People. I meet a lot of good families at the races and it's nice to be able to spend time with them because they are all like a big family to me. I have to say that winning races is also an amazing feeling, in fact, I would say that it is probably the best feeling ever!
MXA: Any advice for kids who want to be the next Buck Ford?
Tank: It takes work, a lot of hard work. You have to eat, sleep and ride motocross. Even if you think you've reached a good level, get ready to work even harder!
MXA: Who helps you do the best for you?
Buck: My parents, MDK. Shihan construction. Fly racing, MX'ers for Jesus. Ford painting, Shoei, East Bat flooring, Go Big MX, Ayer clothing, No Toil, Motion Pro Graphics.
