He'll go, his kids will run amok on their play bikes cuz freedom, he'll get kicked out, and Monday we'll have a Cooksey video about Tim Cotter terrorizing families that are just trying to enjoy GNCC. lol

I dont have kids, I go to watch and help out a few friends, and like to spectate from more than 1 spot the whole time.

I ride a Trail 90 and use it to carry stuff around with me incase the rider needs it. 

Again they punish everyone because they don't want to do the job right and stop the idiots. This solution wont work and they know it. 

I won't be going and I hope many others don't as well. That or enough people go and tell them to go fuck themselves and ride whatever they want and it's uncontrollable chaos.

Hold on, you’re not even an entrant and you’re complaining about not being able to use a pit bike?

Am I reading that right?

Is your trail 90 not street legal? They should have zero problems with street legal vehicles

I wish more venues would do the same - High Point MX was a sh*t show with pit bikes all over the spectator area. Seen many "near misses" of bikes almost hitting spectators.. it's getting waaay out of hand...

This right here is the problem. Pit vehicle means you are the rider or mechanic. Not meant for all your friends, brothers, sisters, spectators to get around.

I was helping friends who were racing, not just riding around to party.

Tim Cotter specified, no motorcycles, or anything with a twist throttle specifically.

He made it seem that anything not 4 wheeled or with pedals was going to be stopped.

That's what I use mine for to help the riders during the am race and get around to watch from a few places during the Pro bike race only. 

At this particular race we would spend the entire Pro atv race on Ironman hill, so on Saturday it would only be used to get myself from my parking spot in the far cornfield to the woods entrance and back to my camping spot.

Sounds like a personal problem with an easy fix. Bike or walk.
