Per the rulebook:

Based on my read your machine would not qualify for GTU.

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

When is the final roster going to get posted? Are they only going to allow the top 40 to race? Its a bummer to see so few MoM racer names on that list. We need to represent!

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...
