Sounds great! I admit I'm not much of a (current machines) race fan but I do love the oldies! :D I figure I probably attended my first MC Race anything (a Moto-X) at the Mid-State Ohio Raceway at Lexington, Ohio back in 1980. I was living in Marysville, Ohio at the time, tryin' to get a job in the then recently constructed American Honda plant (no such luck! :(). No sooner then showed up at the raceway (on my then 78' Goldwing) when 5 minutes before the start of the first Moto, the skies let loose with RAIN! It didn't stop the race but within the first couple laps the racers were so covered with mud, I gotta' admit I coudn't tell one rider from the next! Never the less I'd call that a major fun day - highly recommended to one and all - regardless of wall to wall mud (on riders AND spectators!)! :D Nuff' said.

LRG :cool:

I would really like to make it there this year. The ride there and back plus the event would make for an awesome weekend, especially with Triumph as the key brand.
