 Thanks Turtle. Did you see how the chic did the second round? This is just a highlight vid, and lots of riders were not included on here. We just started video taping and figuring out the plan. This one was just our clan and the riders we knew would be exciting. In hindsight, we should have taped everyone we rode against in our classes. Its just a taster. If I post another, I'll try to get a better recording of the 500, so you guys can hear how it runs. Any suggestions to add or subtract to future videos?
 We have a three day this weekend. Saturday night climb, Sunday Circle Track Race (5/8ths mile), Sunday Night Climb, Monday Circle Track. Hillclimbing two hills. One is super Steep, the other is Super fast. The Circle Track has two drop-offs in the back straight. Anyone up for directions? ( someone said there was another race in Indianapolis, not sure :lol: :lol:)
  South Central Illinois, close to Mattoon. You're probably closer than I am Stewart...but leave your 500's at home. :lol: :lol: Seriously, I would invite any of you guys to come out to race or watch, if you're close enough to make the trip.

If you like my video, you should check out the Pro Race from here last year. Don 46 brought some super fast guys to this hill.

i like to see the super steep stuff myself 8-)

Hillclimb#42:
Probably not going to "wow" anyone with big hills, when comparing to hills like on the east and west coasts. They are all less than 250'. We had a 650' hill, but the property changed hands. (The one on the Nitro Nashville Vid) This weekend is a steep hill, 190' with shale patches, rain ruts, and knotty grass clumps everywhere, and a small 10' table after the lights. Then the other side is probably 180' with a shale patch in the middle. Flat on top, but will still launch you to the woods. Its steep, but not as rutted and bumpy. Clubs work on the hills and change things often, so even though I've been there, my description could be wrong. The youth, the quads, the Stock Length bikes, the Women and Super Senior Ride the easier hill, and all the other classes run the Nasty one. Its about half and half. Its neat "under the lights" The hill and the return trail are lit up.
Video doesn't do it justice either. You know how it is. It looks smooth and easy, until you are on the hill looking at it closely.

I'll see what steep stuff I can come up with...
