My younger brother was an AMA professional flat tracker ( while I raced motocross) so I attended many flat track races. The Mile races are the real thrillers when a dozen 750 Harleys, Triumphs and Yamaha 750s would come thundering down the straight, sit up and throw it sideways at 110 mph sliding all the way around the curve, then straightening it out and hugging the tank down the other straight, but short tracks are fun too. I think you will come away with an amazement of what riders can do on a flat dirt surface. Actually the new Bonnevilles, and Kawasaki Ninja 650s are doing real well in short tracks, and there is a husband and wife combo that are quite successfull...MEes I think their name is.
