Announcing a Fun Race at Matterley Basin (Winchester) on MX2 OEM Bikes
Wednesday 5th April 20:30 UTC
All Riders Welcome
(http://www.mx-bikes.com/images/tracks/winchester.jpg)
Could't run a race last week but back this week with another MX classic.
Designed in 2006, and created in only 2 weeks, the Matterley Basin Circuit is on of the most beloved tracks on the Race Calendar. In 2006, the circuit held a British Motocross Grand Prix, and a Motocross of Nations. The Motocross of Nations brought in an unimaginable crowd due to several circumstances, mostly being Stefan Everts last ever professional career race, the likes of Bubba Stewart, Ivan Tadesco and Ryan Villopoto.

Event Details
To participate you will require this MX2-OEM pack containing bikes and tyres -
https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0B69-MKQxCg7IbUdGaURhWVFJd00&export=download
(FYI - If you been on any MXB server with MODs in the last few days, you already have these)And this track -
The track comes with the game.
2 servers will be used for this event, 1 server will be running practice for all and when the event starts a separate server will be used to hold the races. Those taking part will be called to join the race server and when finished will need to return to the practice server to await their next race call. The heat races will be short to keep waiting times down with the main being slightly longer.The heats will be setup to run in different formats depending on the number of riders but should also allow for lag free racing that can be replayed to a decent standard. Heat and final races will currently contain a maximum of 8 riders, maybe lower depending on turnout. A single race might be held if numbers are too low to run heats. For initial heat selection names will be drawn at random.Due to what I think are net code limitations in Beta6 I will only be running 8 people in races for now (as it stands with 8 already in a server joining seems to be a lottery). If I can figure out a way to organise larger races I will but for now this will have to suffice.
Collisions and deformation will be on.

Can you move it to 2100 UTC? I would really love to join the race.
No sorry BJ, if it goes on for a long time due to problems, which it has in the past, it'll finish too late and I need my beauty sleep :) Ideally need everyone ready for a 20.30 race start.
Chris Schmieder #5, if there are still open spots.
Full now, but if people want to add their names i'll give them first refusal if there's any no shows.
Wheres the race server?
We just raced the practice server to save hassle.
Thanks to all that raced.

From now on should all bikes be allowed? Sometimes I really like riding the 09crf, though the 96 cr125 should not be allowed for obvious reasons.
Don't want to allow all bikes, as some will join with the wrong ones and I also want to keep it even with at least the same class. Plus it's easier to make a small pack in case some don't have the all the bikes come race night.
