We ended up canceling our mid-July event, leaving a big ol' gap between June 29 and July 27, so we opened registration for this event super early. And, needless to say, a lot of people are going to be itching for some action! Add to that the awesomeness of the site... you better get registered early, this event WILL sell out.

Last points event and there is still fighting for podiums! Fyi didnt calculate the last points event from dunnellon.

S0 with Eric and Joe for 2nd and 3rd. 1 point difference.

S1 with Laura and Campbell for 2nd and 3rd. 2 point difference.

S2 with toby and The Eva for 1st/2nd. 1 point difference.

S3 with Evan Kevin and Steven looks like top 3 spots are up in the air still. 11 point difference between the three.

S4 with Taylor and Jadon, 2 point difference 2nd/3rd. Ben looks to pretty much have 1st secured.

M0 with me and Ron for 1st/2nd. I think with dunnellons points we will be I think a 1 point difference. All down who places ahead of each other at the next event. The pressure will get me.

M1 all 3 podiums are up for grabs with Mark, Caleb(he runs in M0 now so he def losing a podium spot :/ ) and Dan.

M2 9 point difference between 1st/2nd with Mark and Drew. I guess Drew can get it if mark places really really badly. But that never happens.

M3 all 3 spots seem to be set.

M4 - All 3 spots up to grabs from Loren, Soraya, and Steve. Only have to place higher than Loren and he place low(doesnt happen lol).

R0 - Elliot 1st secured other two spots literally anyone who just shows.

Someday Philip will update the points after the June 29 event and we'll know where we really stand...

Meanwhile, there are only 13 openings left in the Late Session. If you know anyone who isn't registered yet, you might want to remind them. 8-)

Philip got the Points updated!

Looks like M2 is the only class that might qualify for a 4th place award this year (10 eligible in class, 5 events required).

If that's what he's relying on, you may as well give me 2d place now.

I remember when Sophia started saying that...in the 4th grade! How can Taylor master this course when he can't reach the pedals yet? :twisted: :wise:
