Hey everyone i was plannin on heading down to Birch Creek at the end of the month its my first time running a GNC how i understand it its THursday registar FRI practice Sat Qualifiers Sun Main event? is that rite? anything else i should know about running a GNC i will be running 91-440 4stroke c...plus does anybody know anything about Birch Creek my dad wants to know how the pits are. thanx a lot

 

Plenty of pit space. Kinda hilly. Usually they let you pit on the TT track during the MX events. Best place to pit (In my opinion) is near the scoring tower. That's also where the starting line is and the staircase section (close to a 100' triple that the pros were doing last year). Bring your already stained socks and underwear cause Birch Creek is made of red, RED clay!!!

 

I don't know what your schedule or finances are like, but there is a district race at Birch Creek the weekend before nationals. Give you a good chance to see the track and learn some stuff. There is plenty of space in the pits, but if it is going to be a rainy weekend you might have trouble without 4wd. Also, every national I have been to you can register either friday or saturday. I have only gotten to one National on a thursday and that was Red Bud and they were basically only taking money for gate fees that day.

 

adamsmith is correct.You maybe should get there on Thursday if you are camping and want a good spot.But signup dont start till Friday.
If staying in a motel,better call now!

 

Thanks a lot guys id go down the weekend before except its a 12-14 hour drive from hear and im already missing school for the National so that wont workout but we will be leavig here on thursday and driving straight thru....we definatly have 4WD living in massachusetts no worries there we do have a motel reservation at the stratford in anyone know how far from the track that is? but we also have a tent that we use at the local races so depending on weather and stuff will determine where we stay..i reall appreciate everyones help

 

I think everybody forgot to tell you......you need to bring a big set of cajones. If you like going big, Birch Creek is the place to go.

Hey Adam....Is the track still under water??? Should I bring my Jetski and leave the quad at home.

The 'dale should be done and I plan on being there. I will most likely drive the motorhome...so plan on staying at the track and partying all weekend. My wife has to stay home and take care of some things, so its really gonna be a party.

 

Cannibal, Stratford Inn is about 30 minutes from BC. It is probably as close as any motel is to BC though. Yes, we have been getting alot of rain around Danville lately, and we also got more snow this year than we have in the past 4. I imagine that Ken and the boys will have the track in shape before the National weekend, considering they have a North East qualifier the week before, 700 dirtbikes oughta dry it out!
