Ohio International Raceway open practice Sunday 4/14

[MalvernMX]

We will be open for the first time this year this coming Sunday 4/14 from 10am to 4pm. We will be splitting groups. The 50/65 beginner track will be open as well. OIR's first race of the year will be two weeks after this practice, so come out and check out some of the changes and get it dialed in.

Sweet!!!
Any track changes , up dates?

 

[MalvernMX]

Yes, the first turn start area has a different (safer in my opinion) layout. Whoop section has been redone. The entire new rhythm section in the back woods has been reworked. The jump section in the front by the fence,the split faced first jump has been changed. Most importantly water fill towers equipped with 6" pumps have been installed to drastically speed prep time and hopefully due away with flagers using hoses to water.

[TwentyThreeMX]

yesssss

 

[mawilk6]

Are quads allowed for practice

 

[MalvernMX]

Yes since quads are racing there this year, we are allowing them for practice. There will be very few practices this year because we can only ride on Sundays, so don't miss it!

[Raptor149]

Sweet! I'm there. Hope the rain this week doesn't flood the track.

 

[MalvernMX]

No pics yet. Sorry! I'll try to get some next time we go over there. And, yes, we will run groups sessions. Big and little bikes and quads, all separate.

[MalvernMX]

How long does each group get per session?

Thanks

15 minutes unless there's way too many groups, then we may cut it to 10. (Only 40 on the track at a time)

[SCHAFFERNOCKER]

Well, looks like my plans for a weekend break just got changed!! Its a riding curse to miss a day at OIR.

 

[wbecker]

is o/n camping permitted at OIR (more for the race in 2 weeks, not this w/e practice)?

 

[MalvernMX]

No, unfortunately not. I wish we could but there are zoning issues.
