i can understand each and everyone's point. but what is gonna happen when there are no places to race. everybody is so worried about bashing everybody, time would be much better spent trying to reform the sanctioning body or something to that nature. i would appreciate no smart remarks spend your time doing something productive like practicing where there is already not enough places to ride

you got it,that is what we are trying to acomplish.middleboro was hopefully just the start.the track owners will have to change,this is how they make a living.If it comes down to no track money(in middleboros case beer money) and haveing to find a new job(a real one) im sure they would change the n.e.s.c. elected officals,as well as improving the track layouts,conditions,etc

i have to say i raced tne nesc from 90-95 and plan on picking back up in august. i preferred the nesc's rules and regulations over other sanctioning bodies. have things gone that wrong in this amount of time? i live within an hour of dist. 34's claverack, walden, ace and diamondback but always preferred the nesc's atmosphere. in places like dist 34 and 3 for that matter, there are things like joe cool referees son riding ten practices and just a bunch of idiots to say the least. so if the organization is that bad atleast i can give praise to the riders of the nesc for having some sort of brains and skills. also the pace of all the classes is much more competitive!

For everyone's information none of the track promoters rely on motocross to make their living. All the promters have other jobs (OK Bernie's retired) I'm not sre what would happen if they get backed into a corner by some of the riders. I think we need to find out what ALL the riders want, maybe by a survey mailed to everyone of them. After being involved for twenty five years I know it's hard to get things changed overnight...
