Every year I look at this contest and tell myself that this year I will enter and every year something comes up to prevent me from entering. The same is true this year. I will follow the contest with interest and a little envy for all who enter. Good luck to all who are able to enter and I look forward to joining you next year.

Well thats too bad teb21. Keep in mind that you don’t have to be present all 4 days. You just have to be involved in a minimum of 50% of the total number of races. You could conceivably skip the whole first weekend although not knowing how many races will be carded the second weekend ahead of time, might make that a bit risky.
However, maybe next year then. Pook |

Alright we have a contest with the 5 minimum! Can we get 5 more souls brave enough to put their egos on the line by Friday at 9PM?
We will see. Keep in mind, with Teds generosity there will be at least a 30% chance of winning something. Pook |
