    SOAR - who's going to be there?

    After meeting a few people at both of the bike show's I am curious to know who i's going to be on the grids and what are you riding?

    I will be there in BOTT - middleweight on my SV650. Bike is not quite ready yet, but it doesn't need much.

    Who else is in?

    As of now, just doing the endurance with Chintoe on the SV. Looking to pick up something for lost era, or finish my RZ for running in whatever class time permits.

    I was talking to a few riders from south of the border that will also be riding SV's in SOAR. Looks like there will be a few of us.

    If anyone needs a team-mate for the endurance races, I'd be happy to crash your bike for you.

    I know a guy that will be running the first endurance round, and up til this point he does not have a team mate. If he wants his bike crashed, I'll let you know.

    Re: SOAR - who's going to be there?

    Before the whole Novice/Amateur debate starts
    SOAR has two license divisions NOVICE and EXPERT, this is done to bring us in line with US orgs. Actually 95% of orgs. RACE is the only org I know that has Novice/Amateur/Pro licenses. I wish they had called their beginner class something different.
    If you are Amateur with RACE you are Novice with us.
    If you are Pro with RACE you are Expert with us.
    We have a Rookie Challenge thats geared towards riders with 5 weekends or less of experience. BTW the winner of the Rookie Series will carry our Novice #1 Plate for 2010.
    Just for fun and because we can. There is going to be alot of this kind of thing with SOAR, we are all about fun. We are also going to have a revolving purse class. This will be a paid purse for every round except it will be paid randomly. we will draw a class outta a hat at Sat riders meeting and that weekend that class will get paid. This will give someone who normally would never get a purse cheque a chance to get a cheque. Again because we can. SOAR is not my income I do this to give back and for my own fulfillment I dont need to make five cents doing this.
    We have a top level National pro rider who as volunteered to convert his 2008 GSXR1000 SBK to a two up and give rides for charity. As soon as we get the insurance blessing we will annnounce more on this.
    All class winners are invited to do a lap of honour with the checkered after a win.
    We will NOT be cutting laps. If we need to run late we will to accomadate racers. If you pay for a race you will get a full race.
    We will not be renting the track in the evenings, this means no hard curfew and maybe even a track walk like days of old.
    Thanks for the overwhelming support and I am so excited about the upcoming season. We are going to have a blast.

    Re: SOAR - who's going to be there?

    for me its pro superbike, or beginer on a moded cbr1000rr
    my lap times now are 1 16.12(only on my buddys stop watch so i have no proof but all my times were in the 1 16s so it should be close) but im sure they will drop with a rabbit to chase.
    if anybody needs a partner for the endurance race let me know.

    Ken can you post up some time ranges for the expected classes so that we can have an idea where we best fit in.

    ex: 600
    Rookie: 1:22 - 1:35
    Novice: 1:16 - 1:21
    Expert: 1:15 - 1:08

    ...
