Going to try to hit the 11/1 race.
And likely run the entire series next year. After 2 seasons with TCCRA, I'm leaning towards being done. The track prep and design is shit, the kid's program is terrible (with little apparent desire to improve or develop it), the protest process is awful, and the officiating is nearly non-existent.
This past weekend, my son was running top-4 in his class, finished with a top 5 and got placed at 6th due to a transponder error. Every indicator, lap time, avg. lap time, speed, etc, was ahead of the kid that placed ahead of him. I bitched and was basically told to piss off, that the hand-written numbers were accurate.
As to the track design/prep, this sport is dangerous enough, what I don't need is some promoter that lays out a narrow single track at an operational gravel pit with deep holes right next to the track (without markings), without roaming sweepers or officials to monitor the riders. I much prefer the track to be a track and not this complicated series of challenges that terrify kids and never let them develop their skills or abilities.
And the organization is confused as to why they are losing members to TORN, Scramblecross, etc.

LMFAO @ the guy who had the flag streamer stuck on his bike!!
I want to make another one soon. I don't think I'll ever frequent this series though because there's just too much sitting around. 45 min of riding in 15 min intervals for being there nearly the entire day. I really wish there was more practice time, but I understand why there isn't.
Here's my race from a few months ago. Creek crossing was deep:

That guy was wearing me out! He should have pulled over right away. It was completely wrapped around him, thought I was going to rip him off his bike.
The races were much quicker this time around and no more mixing of quads and side by sides anymore.
Creek looked very full on your ride!! Bet that felt good in the heat.
Did the front just tuck in on you out of know where?? Black dirt is slick! Wet or dry
