I see on the BUB website, they have posted the entries for this years event. There are 257 AMA entries and 47 FIM entries. Wow. Long lines again.

I have been a starter for the event sence the 2005 event i can assure you that the amount of pre entered riders will not be a problem.
We had more riders last year and there were times when we did not have a rider on either track.
I know of at least 2 riders last year that were able to make more than a dozen passes in a single day.
See you on the salt!

Good Deal Bob. I was not there last year, but was at BUB in 2007 where there were some pretty bad line problems. I am sure things will go smoothly now. Thanks for the comment. See you there.

BUB has made huge progress in just a few years. Pre stage and stage I thought was smooth and the wait time was not really that long or an issue. I kind of enjoyed talking to the other riders while waiting our turn, and the time flys by.

Right, 2007 was a problem regarding the starting line set-up.......2008 was great, no problems, the line moved very fast, just barely enough time to get you racing gear on......looking forward to this years event.
