yeah I'll more than likely be there!

Can I get directions to where the place is? A little more information would help...

Do I need a helmet? All I have is my dirt bike helmet...

You will need a helmet that is at least Snell 2000, just DOT ratings wont fly (usually bike MC helmets are only DOT, but some are both) If yours does not have a snell rating don't even bring it, cause Jeff will tell you leave it in the paddock, and they won't let you on the track with it. There are about 10 loaner helmets, so they will have one for you.

YOu might try googling the Helena Emergency Services Facility. That is where the event is located. I don't have an actuall address.......you can also check out www.bigskyregion.org, there may be an address and map to it under the 'lets go racing' tab

This might work.....

Helmets: Like Renn said it must be Snell M2000 or better. On the newer helmets the sticker is buried in the lining.

Since this is a SWMT region event there won't be more than one loner helmet unless someone from Missoula brings theirs, so try to get a helmet if you can.

That pdf that Renn posted is good, the easiest route is to take the airport exit from i-15, then follow skyway drive all the way to the fire training area, look for the big black plane fuselage.

Hey Renn, do you think the results from 4-29 will be posted soon?

They should be up soon! The web guy we use is not the fastest, but somtimes we are not the fastest at getting the info to him. I would like to see them also, I left before the awards, I was ready to be out of there....

Nice pics!

Roadhog, I didn't get a chance to meet you, but your car was looking and sounding great!
Hope you had fun, next time we have to actually meet. :nod:

Stoney, your looking better out on the course every event, if you get those sticky tires from Dave and keep practicing your going to be a force to be reckoned with. :mrgreen:
