I think the idea of a series encompassing surrounding parks is the best way to do it. We have been working this way for a couple months now. Thats why i started the Right Coast Racing Association. I want to see parks help each other, because we are all in it together. GMP helps promote the race at "x" park and "x" park helps promote the race at GMP and so forth.
Like I told Toddy and Droopy the park owners can build the courses. The park owners can advertise the hell out of it. The park owners can spend a lot of money pulling the deal off. But we cant make the competitors show up!! Thats where it takes the commitment from you guys to be at each and every event you can possibly make. If I advertise a local comp saying there will be "x" amount of competitors there and only 2 show up. I've got pissed off spectators and so does every other park owner. The spectators will not come back next year. Thats my fear.
I want the series to be fun, low buck, competitor friendly and spectator friendly. It also needs to be taken seriously by the competitors and other park owners.
The series can be a couple different types of events. I can hold a rock race in the infield. I can hold an endurance (koh style) race through the woods on the 12 mile loop we have on the property. I can host a king of the hill type comp also. The RCRA will host all those types of events, and they all dont need to be on my property. They need to be diverse in location and terrain. I have rocks. The other guy may have dirt hill climbs. Marvin that owns Mayham Offroad park & I spoke about this last weekend. His place is perfect to get into a king of the hill series.
I'm in. I invite any other park owners/managers to call me and bounce ideas off each other 931-644-9917.
The way I see it, the more places to ride the better likely hood of more folks getting in the sport!!!
