I went to two battletraxs events last year. One at Harley of Pittsburgh, and one at Stockton Honda/Yamaha. These event rock . Not one scooter expect for my dads girlfriend @ Stockton. Check out the website: www.battletrax.com. Web site is very out of date for the schedule. But you can get more info about it. If you guys are intested I could send you some pics....the editor of the Mag Friction Zone was there they were co-sponser w/Pittsburgh HD....she snapped some pics she sent them to me. Anyways keep your ears open out in your area...because I love these events...and make it work on my schedule if I know ahead of time.

Apparently not.......but keep your ears open. I had blast...and both times I went it was open to any two motor...It would be cool to have a bunch of Rucki invade one of these events............

Keep your fingers crossed, the topic of hosting something along the lines of an autocross came up on the last ride!
Empty lot + cones + Ruckuses = Fun Time ....BITCHES!

Ace,
I first heard of it reading a free motorcycle rag called Friction Zone. Local motorcycle shops/scooter shops......I have been trying to contact the owner of the Battletrax company....and have gotten no response. I am telling you...it is a blast. It is not about who is the fastest...but the most constant around the track. The format goes like this....When the event starts in the morning....you get to run the course as many time as you would like. They give you a time slip for every pass....in the afternoon. They ask you how long it will take to do the course. You give them a time you need to come as close to that time as possible on four seperate trips...the person who comes closes wins. I had a total blast....There were people there on Harleys, Buells, Rice Rocket type bikes, Dirt bikes...etc. Everyone was great and had a blast. Hope that helps.... The motto of Battle traxs is "Don't think you have fun in a parking lot, in 1st gear?"
