I sent a email (earlier this week) to this track/guy to see if we could race our buggies with the UTV's or in our own class.
Looks like a great track. next race july 21st 22nd http://www.edtracing.com/PineLake.html" ."..

Talked to Bud Fischer today. He is very open to and very familiar with Pilot racing. Said it fizzled out in the early 90's. He said the Pilots used to start 10 wide and his track is plenty wide for "safe" landrush starts into the first high banked corner.
Bud said he has a group of older 3-wheeler racers set to race also. Pilots and Odysseys would make for a retro weekend.
If we can get at least 6-8 buggies to commit he will give us our own class and let us all race both days to give the crowd a good show.
The main show will be about 300 short course/flat track style atv racers. Also a UTV class.
He wants to discuss this more after the holiday so lets gauge some interest before then. Thanks

im from youngstown ohio im willing to race my two pilots

Sounds good. Hope some of the NOORA guys commit.
ctucker333 have you raced NOORA? Its not far from Youngstown.

Wow 7 hrs 36 min drive for me. Wish it was the week end after the 21 also why is it 2 days.
Make sure we know the rules on saftey ...fire suit? I do not want to buy three suits to race.
If I commit that will be 4 racers,but need more info

Heats and consi's saturday afternoon. Mains on Sunday. Event is 300+ quads.
He maybe flexible and let us run the 2 heats/same day just like NOORA
Bud said probably not going to run hare scrambles, due to lack of rain.
He said he only answers the phone number weekdays/business hours. Never asked about safety rules.

i have never raced in general,i need help with dates and need to be caught up to speed on what exactly i need

These are the general rules at NOORA along with a safety inspection.
I suspect Pine lake will be similar but will verify and post.

STADIUM LITES/PILOTS

STADIUM LITES

*Fuel tanks must be safe in design and monuting, safety committee has final ruling

*Fire suit recommended, but not required, long pants and long sleeved shirts required

*Must have working breaking system

*Chasiss must be designed to adequately protect driver

Yea if that's all the rules count me and my two pilots in...but only problem in 13!!! I was planning on me and my dad both racing...soo I need an address and Time the races start and I'm there with my two machines

brain,as you know me and my two are inn for sure

I talked to Dan Barkley this morning he is interested in ben and chris racing, and calling others in Ohio.
Sorry you cannot pull it together Justin. You could come watch; should be fun.
Dan said the track is mostly hard pack and track type tires work better.
Also talked to a kid named Tucker who wants to race and lives near the Barkleys.
So new list:

1) Renegadevtwin: and The HMF Revolt
2) Odypilots with one buggy
3&4) Tenatively Ben & Chris B. with their Pilots
5) Tenatively- Tucker (ctucker333) the 14 year old and his Pilot

my dad is racing the other one too...ctucker333 SR.

Sounds good Tucker; New list:

1) Renegadevtwin: and The HMF Revolt
2) Odypilots with one Pilot
3&4) Tenatively Ben & Chris B. with their Pilots
5&6) Tenatively- Tucker (ctucker333) the 14 year old and his dad and their Pilots

what time is are race next sunday? and what time do i need to be there?

Tucker details are still up in the air. Probably arrive in morning, practice late morning and race whenever Bud can fit us in in the afternoon.

Hope they can move it to Saturday I can not make sunday.Need to verify if racing Sat or Sun

yeah,im with card counter i need to know what day? talked to dan barkley the other day he said most likely saturday afternoon is their any truth to that?

Dan has known the owner since way back hope he can pull some string and get Sat.

5 pilots, 1 revolt and 4 350's...11 buggys on that track should be interesting

I can make it either day. Sunday was suggested as idea by Bud for a one day option.
Saturday he runs the heat races for the 300plus TT- ATV guys and the 3 classes of 3 wheelers.
Mains only on Sunday so less busy.

Card Counter: Do you have all 4 350's ready?
My thought is if you guys commit to drive all that way with 4 machines then lets race Saturday.
If team DNF Hailing from Maryland passes on this then lets race Sunday.

I will let you guys hash it out now.
Bud stated the start is 90 ft wide and they used to start the Pilots 10 wide.

I may come down to check that out, wont know prolly till Friday. 1 Pilot.
Mike

Do it Mikey! I want to see some vids of the back of your pilot!

I sorta need a concrete answer is the race saturday or sunday

I will talk to Dan, Bud and Card Counter monday or tuesday and try to pin this thing down. I'll Call Dan for card counters # tommorrow.
Will post to this forum once decision is made.

ok cool thx
