My first class championship ever.  8 different world class tracks, 10 races, mud, sun, and perfect weather the entire time. 

I also was able to finish second place overall for the year in the ACR Open EVO Novice class.  This is the second year in a row for a second place finish overall in this class.  Always a bride’s maid, never a bride….

Englishtown is always a good time.  This year was no exception. Both my father in law and brother in law went with me for this trip.  The bus is set up well for extra people, as I have the bunk beds and plenty of room in the back for an air mattress, even with the bike stored in the bus!

Englishtown is fun for all of us, in that it is a true motorsports complex.  On Friday night we walked around the pits of the Drift Racing competitors - it was cool.  Then, Friday night drag racing started and we saw some really fast cars.

Racing on Saturday was a little long - there were 27 gates - that is 54 races total!  The bike ran fantastic, we ate like Vikings, and pitted next to some great people. 

This was a bittersweet year.  Yes, I won a championship, but both of my sponsors went out of business due to the tough economy.  I achieved a lot of my goals with the ACR website, but also found out what a daunting task it will be to give the site a full make over.  I cut down a ton of fool around time by riding one bike this year, but I also found that I really missed racing my Vintage 80’s bikes.

Next update on my blog I will cover what equipment worked (and did not work), I will give an update on the bus, and I will also give my first impressions on what classes I will ride for 2010!
