ATTENTION ATTENTION ENDURANCE AND RELAY TEAMS AND ENDURANCE HOPFULS

The BOD is discussing adding another round of endurance at the 2nd HALLETT event.
For this to happen we will be monitoring team entries at the first event in Houston . And I'll be blunt 11-13 teams total wont cut it. So I need you guys to encourage people to build some teams.

We will still have the normal ULTWE structure along with the separate scored D STK endurance class and ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT RELAY.

Speaking of RELAY, I get feedback that racers are unaware of this class or how it works. IT IS QUITE FRANKLY THE CHEAPEST WAY to get seat/practice time per lap in the CMRA.... Take 2 to 5 guys, with their OWN motorcycle ( "i dont want anyone riding my bike") , use a good set of take offs if your budget minded and just swap the transponder at whatever time frame you decide. NEW FOR 2025 THE RELAY WILL GO THE FULL LENGTH AS THE ENDURANCE NOT JUST HALF ENDURANCE LENGTH AS IN 2024.

I'm that AARP guy that has endurance raced every year since 1990 and I want to see more rounds also but I/we need your help to put bikes on the grid.
If youve never raced endurance dont listen to guys/gals that say you have to have a trillion dollors to go win , go have fun etc...MY TEAM WON CHAMPIONSHIP 300SSTK on basically a stock R3 with a $100 exhaust and a few suspension parts , but mainly had a blast doing it.

Thanks for reading and I hope to see yall out there.

Thank you BOD for trying to make a Hallett round happen! I know of a new 250 team, so dust off your 250s and lets give them some competition!

Band of Misfits wants this! Let’s go!

COM"ON Relay teams! We currently only have 1 team pre-entered....put a team together and knock off that winter rust!

Let's go!!!! 4 rounds is never going to satisfy my addiction! I NEED MORE ENDURANCE ROUNDS! Come on out folks, the water is fine and you'll have a guaranteed fun time! Relay, endurance, whatever flavor suits you, let's load this grid up!

Throw us a bone. What kind of addition numbers are we talking. Perhaps that might help people OR, challenge some endurance team riders to enter Relays in addition to their endurance entries. But without a goal, I don’t see anyone biting.

17 +....

I assume no problem with me copy/pasting this to the FB CMRA page for a little more exposure?

I'm an endurance hopeful and would love to join a team on a small bike. Currently prepping my 18 R3 for racing so the bike isn't ready just yet, but my plan is to do some endurance racing in the near future. I'm a member @ ECR and have done 2:05's on my old R6 and 2:19's on a 19 R3 with stock suspension, so there's heaps of room to grow and learn. While I'm still a ProvNov, my plan is to cut my teeth at the local DFW races this season and compete next season at all of the events. edit: I've also had some 1-on-1 coaching with Max Johnson on the R6 if that helps my CV any :D

Yes!!! Our team, and others we’ve talked to, really want to endurance at Hallett! Danny, please make it happen because we love that track, want more endurance rounds, definitely want to go!

Hallett is my favorite! But, being in Austin I would never drive up there if there was not an endurance round to race there.

So... with the 20 entries at MSRH, Hallett ULWE is ON, right?? PLEASE!

Interested in this, as well....

We had 16 for ULWE, that being said it's too close to the round for March to change i think. The second hallett can be looked at, and the cresson rounds. Teams budget and plan out a season, I'd hesitate to make too many changes. But we can check with those teams.

20 entries on the grid. Maybe not all technically ULWE, but I believe they all pay the same (or similar) so should count. Let's go!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...54b272c3eb.jpg

Nobody's unhappy about adding a 5th endurance round! I mean, 4 rounds is just not enough! If we were talking adding an 8th or 9th round, I'd be more understanding of the "teams budget and we don't want to surprise them" line of thought. But 4-->5? No way is anyone gonna say, "5 rounds is just WAY too much! If I'd have known this, I never would have even started."

Imho. [emoji6]

I agree with David that we had 20 paying teams and all of them should count.

I understand that having a half-day paid practice on Saturday instead of endurance is likely to bring in more money for the club at certain tracks. However, we don't do this to pay for practice, we do it to race, so my opinion is that we should be racing if the numbers between the two options are close.
