Email from Kevin:

Yes, we are combining the canceled Heartland and the final BHF race. We will
still run the new one day race schedule and pay double Great Plains and
double Mid West points. Also if you're posting this, please mention the BHF
practice day on Saturday and contacting BHF for pre-entry to the practice.

Sweeeeeet...I'll try to make it. Hope to still do the Pridmore STAR school sept 23rd also, but not sure if I can swing both.

That's awesome......I will say this,there are alot of local racers who are talking about coming out and racing that weekend that are out of the points,just to come out and support CCS/BHF,if you are MW or GP and in the points I would highly consider pre-registering.

Word of advice for anyone entering GTU, MW Supersport or MW Superbike - PRE-ENTER!!

Those were the biggest grids last weekend and with the addition of the GP Region stand to possibly fill up.

Not saying you'll get shut out by registering late because the Grid is full - but those classes have the greatest likelyhood.

Last weekend we had 24 on the Grid sheet for EX/AM combined GTU, 30 for EX/AM combined MW Supersport and 27 for EX/AM combined MW Superbike.

When we were running the 2 day schedule each of these races were separated - EX and AM.  With the new 1 day schedule they are combined.  Not sure, but I think the maximum track density for Blackhawk is around 40 bikes per race.

This is now a double points weekend for both Midwest and Great Plains regions.

Why take a chance and get told that they can't accept any more entries because the race is full!

Yeah,this is real possible,I sent reg; and check today and I've not pre-registered all year,there's already momentum here,and some friends I talked to comming from GP,this could really start to roll with enthusiasm.We're also working on festivities to be announced later that will make the social end it this thing a blast.

This additional or unscheduled race for the GP region may not be a good thing for GP Riders.

1.  With double points GP riders may loose there GP championships to MW riders simply because they cannot attend this unscheduled race.

2.  Many GP racers made vacation plans for the September 5-6 weekend.  Arranging vacation time for the unscheduled race may not be possible.

Ok-  I had planned to go to VIR and race with friend...  but now if I want any shot at the GP points:

I'm supposed to drive 9 hours to a track I've never been to.  I'm going to race folks who are dialed in for the track over 3 race weekends this year.  Hell I don't even have any idea what gearing to bring for my SV.    You guys better have a cold beer ready.
