Is the Middle weight supersport grid ever completely full for daytona? As in if i sign up too late i get bumped. How late can you register for a race?

MELK-MAN · November 04, 2009, 04:37:18 PM

i doubt with the state of the economy the grids will be full. However pre entering will give you a better grid position..

f3racer · November 04, 2009, 04:44:39 PM

yeah i wish i could pre enter. I didnt get my license in time before my race cert expired. So i am going to have to hit up the team hammer school on the 25th. get my license on the spot and then register for the race. Hopefully i get somewhere in the middle of the grid. Do they run am and ex in the same race or seperate?

totally depends on what race, how many riders, etc... some are combined, some are not.

Apparently you didn't hear that as part of this countries switch to Socialism the Government is generously going to have the people who work for a living pay for the people who live off the system so they can go racing too (because their entitled to it - even if they don't contribute like those of us who work for a living). So for at least the next 3 years the grids should be PACKED with new racers on brand new equipment that we generously all paid for.

What you must do is come to Homestead in December. Take the Penguin school, get your license and race that weekend. Then you will be prepared for the "Big Track".

For sure! Although a bit slower into T1 (as you only have the front straight to build speed), Homestead T1 is much like Daytona T1. High speed banking, then a transition to the infield course down shifting all the way.

Gateway just east of downtown st louis has a few dates a year that can get you liscensed. If youre on the other side of the state check out HPT, i imagine they will have something lined up as well. Closer to OK? Hallett, or North? Blackhawk
