Kidd Started a new thread SCRAMBLECROSS...Where it's headed

2/4/2016 5:56am
I read several comments on my other topic regarding no ambulance runs during our inaugural 2015 Scramblecross season. I personally like the one stating I was using the topic as a promotional tool... "Really"? After spending over 50 years in this industry as an amateur to pro rider, then the last 30 years selling hundreds of thousands of tickets, millions...

Spam? Not really, just making people aware attending the Dallas SX Scramblecross opens the following day. Nothing worse than people saying "I would have went if I had known you were racing." Thank you for your concern.

Kidd Started a new thread Joe Kopp broken swing arm bolt video

As you can see in the video below the airfence worked for our Grand National Championship point leader Joe Kopp July 31st in Calistoga, CA. With an 80mph impact into the airfence, Joe was able to walk back to the pits, get on his backup motorcycle and qualify for the national. Joe won the Hagerstown, MD Grand National this past...

It has been a while since I have been on the Forum with you guys. Since my days of AX, I have now been hired as the Director of Flat Track for AMA Pro Racing. Could say I am pretty much back where I started. We just completed two nights of successful events at Municipal Stadium in Daytona Beach during...

Kidd Added a reply to Ducati wins first ever GNC Dirt Track

5/3/2010 5:21pm
That is absolutely NOT true. The 38mm restrictor was discussed with the Lloyd Bros racing team prior to practice. The intake on the ducati is about 35mm with no place to put the restrictor. Lloyd Bros and AMA Pro tech are working together on this project. We are working extremely hard to bring other brands into flat track...not run them...

Kidd Added a reply to Why didnt someone get JLaws spot in the main?

3/30/2009 10:19am
Not sure if the same rules apply for MX, SX as flat track. However in flat track there are no alternates for the main event. Several reasons; most important it could become a bidding war for a transfer. If the title came down to the last race and Reed or Stewart missed the main by one spot, what would that...

Reference #1 - You are wrong. Devin ran the exhaust all day Wednesday and did not qualify. We were not questioning the sound, it was the muffler we had concern about. There are photos of the exhaust all over the internet. Compare that muffler to an FMF, Pro Circuit, etc., which we all see everyday at the race track and...

Project Racer: A local dealer stepped up and lent a stock pipe. Bike was dyno'd and sound tested using the said illegal pipe. It passed the sound tests administered by the builder/tuner. MK: Are you 100% sure about this? Project Racer: Kidd and company did not even have a meter of any sort on the grounds. The bike ran like...

Yep....I know what you mean. The guy that wrapped the t-shirts on Thursday night was not aware there is a certain way to keep them from coming apart like a parachute! The girls shot two that came apart, then I said Let Me Try It! Same thing happened to me. I just went and hid behind the podium for a...

We have taken several chapters from AX, SX and placed them flat track. We have new classes, format and more. Here is just a few of the improvement; 1. Added a Pro class with riders racing at all the short tracks, TT, Half Mile and Miles on production based 450cc bikes. Similar to the Lites class. These riders will be...
