Not so maybe if everyone entered in January then you still would be on the waiting list. No!!! that is elitism and other sports have that problem already. Simply raise the price. See my reply to earl

There's definitely a high demand for concrete surfaces, and in many ways Peru is a much better site than Topeka or anywhere else I can think of right now. It can be bumpy though. We had a BFG CenDiv

I agree with this wholeheartedly. This, however, I strongly agree with. I am a college student who got into SOLO II about 2 years ago. One of the things about SOLO II which drew me in is that it's a

I think this is a bad idea. In a past life, I raced bicycles from about 1986 until 1998, including 3 seasons full-time. Bike racing enjoyed a "hay day" around 1990 very similar to what is happening

First of all, I don't see what is so bad about being on the site for 12 hours to get 3 runs. For those of us who have no realistic chance of being a contender (which I will hazard to guess is more th
