I invited a few "friends" from my local tracks that are old schoolers. If they show up. we could have quite a big class. Maybe even semi's. ![]()

One guy has a Reynolds Quad and a Moosegoose. Another has on older Torker and Redline. I would probably ride my late 80's Floval, same as last year. My son on my '82 Quad.
Some of these guys have pretty good collections. The possibilities are endless...![]()

Yeah, I tried that last year, and I was the only one. I had to hurray and get my name added to the other class. ![]()
I think it would be more fun to run 'em all together. A true open wheel class. And if we have more than 8 riders, have a semi. ![]()
Doesn't make sense to split us up if it isn't neccesary. Nothin' cooler than seeing a whole rack of OS machines!

Thanks for putting the word out Karl
With the cruiser craze of 2012 I hope to run a full out cruiser class. If not I will look into your suggestion of a open wheel class.
