I realize that but I really don't want to drive 16 hours and spend that kind of coin to get my butt handed to me by 200hp+ multi cylinder 1000cc bikes. and since it was an AMA sanctioned event I was hoping maybe exceptions could be made |

Everyone, the final roster should be posted in the next day or so. Registration has closed for the event. If you have registered and don't see your name on the roster, don't freak out just yet. There are a few folks missing from the list. Wait for the final update, then you can freak out...
