has anyone heard of blackwater 100. and exactly why did they shut the race down the track was awesome.

 

also has anyone raced there

 

I've heard of it, even have a video of it. I am not sure exactly why they shut it down.

 

EPA is what I heard shut it down but I could be wrong.

 

It was a cross by sierra club flying over w there copter an saying the off roaders destroying some snipe birds nesting grounds.Which was just another un mitigated an unproven lie.The other an probably the main reason was the owner of the property said each year it was getting bigger an bigger an the mud fleas were getting more an more outta control along w there littering an drinking it kinda killed it,I guess due to insurance reasons..I read that in dirt wheels so e mail them an ya probably could get the facts to why better then I would know.
Ive always wanted to enter that race now that I can an way of age its gone,BUMMER!

 

i know it was a great race but hard on the bike i just wish they could reopen it... plus the town made so much profit on it.

 

blackwater was one of the roughest cross country racing tracks. I might be wrong but i think they shut it down because of complaints or something like that.
