Sorry for late reply, computer problems.
I am taking your replies to heart. I will explain my thoughts a bit better.
I realize the event already is a lot of work, and my thanks go to those who make it happen.
Last year was first year i attended, I rode out from Kelowna BC, around 900 miles or so. When we got there we were not equipped, I thought I could get a proper hat out there but after 1/2 day in Wendover searching we had to settle for small kids umbrellas. Anyway, the sun/salt beat us up pretty good.
We did not take our bikes on the salt rather we left at the boatlaunch & hitchiked in ..which was great..we met the nicest people..including Dave Campos & Boris Murray and a lot of others.
We did have racers there from our town, we helped them out & used their shade.. But not every biker riding to the event, will have this all day long..point being, not everybody lasts the whole day on the salt. (this year they had too much help!)
I do plan on racing a streetbike with sidecar there if I can get ready for next year.
There is a few dragracers out there by the looks of it, from what I could see.. I did not really think of running the salt bikes on the dragstrip, but rather a bit more like the AHMRA bunch bring bikes there & then going to Miller.
The bike I ride is a 73 CB750 Honda.. & next year is the 40th anniversary of that model. I belong to a forum called sohc4,s and have been trying to get a bunch to turn out for Bub next year and hopefully have some racing. If it were possible to have drags as well it would be lovely..(even if only one night)
Hope that explains things a bit..
Question, was the track further from the pits?? seemed harder to watch than last year?
