on the weekend of July 27th - 28th.

Come on out on Saturday from noon to 2 pm and camp overnight making
a weekend event out of it.

what about mini bike regulations ....chainguards or any other crapz required.. do you guys have any bike rules to follow
It's a fun friendly racing event and show.
We don't have too many rules.
Did you see the safety gear rules? Going to be enforcing those and
would prefer racers wearing full face helmets.

4 strokes should have a catch can so you don't spill oil on the track.
You don't have to have chain guards if it isn't a hazard to you.

We don't really have a tech inspection right now but use your common
sense about stuff on your bike that may hurt you if you crash.

This will be a first event to include some minibikes and if it works out there
may be another event in September and of course the big race of the year
is on October 19th 2013 at Grange Motor Circuit.

Minibikes could race on the 1/2 track at Grange, come on out on July 27th
and we can talk about it.

Saturday October 19th 2013 at Grange Motor Circuit in Apple Valley, CA.

Swell vid! :thumbsup: I really like to make films in imovie. be sure to post more pics and vids of your upcoming races.

Willow Springs is like a racing theme park w/all of those tracks. I love that place. I've never been to The Grange. A young friend of mine went down there to race supermoto and had a great time.
nashmoto the maker of that video is working on a full version with footage
from our past races.

Here are a bunch of videos and pics:

I love Grange Motor Circuit for the track which we race CCW and CW
It's the most challenging and fun go kart track in Socal.

Our very first race was on the Willow Springs go kart track and this is
the first time we have been back since June 2011.

Lots of action at Willow Springs on July 27th and 28th, M1GP is racing
small motorcycles on Streets of Willow on both days.
There is some drifting on the other paved oval and drag racing from 7pm
to 11pm on Big Willow on Saturday.

We will probably get to try out some other tracks on Sunday.
On June 2011 we got to do a few laps around Big Willow at the end of the day.

You are welcome to come have some Fun with us.
