The 1st race is Sunday May 20th. They are calling for rain Friday & Sat. We are still racing on Sunday, rain or shine. Bring the mud boots and come have some fun. We have drainage so rain will run off track and will groom it now late Sat. early Sunday morning. Channel 6 news is calling for some sun Sunday afternoon. I hope he is right as it is only Thur. and I am posting.

My only concern is the pitt areas. If you dont need to bring the motor homes this trip it will help out with the parking and or getting stuck. Any large units will need to park up top.

The track isnt like the old days, where it was thigh deep of mud. The drainage works great and the track dries fast. Maybe slippery during practice, but once turned up it will be nice. It can take alot of water, so this few inches will be ok. We have learned the grooming game due to weather. So Sunday morning early the dozer will be running full throttle.

Remember the 1st race to get there early to complete the paper work. Driver meeting is at 8:45, practice to start right after. This year practice is all timed. 1 practice per person unless you have 2 different bikes. If there are any track issues we will address them as needed. Practice should end by 10:15 and we will go right in 1st moto if there are no issues or delay's.

Same as last year, no extra vehicle's in the pitt area, park up top, leave room for racers. This race we all have to work together in the pitt area with the new pitt area almost done and the mudrun area being filled in soon the next races to come we will have much more room.

If you need info. or have a question I will be at the track and can not check email, so please call 649-4990. Hope to see you there. Racing cant always be a perfect day in the sun !

MAY 20TH IS OPENING DAY FOR SKOWHEGAN MOTOCROSS. We will be racing RAIN OR SHINE and making the best of it. We left the track hard packed so the rain is running off it. We will groom Sunday morning or as soon as it stops raining Sat. Weather looks to be getting better, we did not get alot of heavy rain so far. We are asking to keep large trailers and motorhomes up top. Due to the wet grounds and wet grass, we all need to work together to fit in the pit area. Sign up will be open from 4pm to 8pm on Sat. night. It will re open sunday at 7 am. We maybe the only fools racing, but it can't always be a perfect day in motocross. If you have any questions call me I will be at the track 649-4990

Thanks sandy

Hope to see you all there, opening day really wouldn't be the same with out a little mud !! ???

No major track changes have been made due to the weather. New gates coming for the July 16 & 17 race's. If we finally see dry ground, the new pitt area will be done and track changes..... Did you do your sun dance ?
