One good source for gear is Canadasmotorcycle.ca I'm thrifty, and try to purchase last year's colour scheme gear and reduced prices. i.e. at the start of this year I bought a Bell Star helmet for about 45% off retail because it was an ugly colour. My head is pretty near and dear to me, so I...

Hi Steve, I started racing with the EMRA in 2014, so hopefully I can give you some insight into making the plunge. When I took the race school in 2014, like you I rode on the street, but I had never ridden a bike on any track. Although EMRA school is great and the instructors work to...

My wife mentioned that there was another rider in the ER, hope you're not too banged up. My mind was still in another zip code at that point. Bit of a gap, last thing at the track I remember was talking to Greg about his new tires after the first session, then I was in the CT scanner. Didn't...

I like to thank the volunteers and racers that helped me and my family out this weekend after my crash in saturday's practice session. This is a great club and an awesome group of people that I'm proud to be a part of! The little crash in the chicane broke the L5 vertebrae in my back, so I'm...

I totally agree! With a 6+ hour trip back home with the RV, I'm guilty of leaving the track after my last race and before teardown. I do like the idea of a lotto, or possibly a fee, payable to the club for better camping/pit spots for people staying overnight. Keep in mind that we are...

If we can park all the rv's abour half track, build a ramp and see if the funny cars can clear em', I'm all for parking on the dragstrip.

Keeping the overnighters to the south, away from the drags amf circle track would be fantastic.

I'm making the trek west for friday and sunday, so I am available Saturday and can lend a hand. Please let me know if there are any additonal volunteers needed Saturday.

Hi Glen, I started racing last year with zero track time. In addition to the bike related items posted by others, I would add that a tent(even a cheapy walmart jobbie), big cooler and a nice comfy chair should be on your list. Not big ticket items, but it definitely makes a rainy or hot day...

Edit: won't be able to make it tonight. RV troubles. Hi all! Is there a deadline for admission for this evenings track attack? Im an hour east of Edmonton with a flat dual. Thanks, Tristan

Thanks for the info. Wheres the best place to source a bolt kit?

Hi all, I've got the bike and the rider all tuned up and in shape for the race school. I'm working on putting together a decent set of tools and spares for pit equipment for the season. What kind of spare parts for the bike would be a good idea to have at the track? I would assume all the...

Great! Thanks for the info. TR

Hi All, I'm gearing up for my first season with EMRA. I'm planning on driving my RV out on the race weekends as it's cheaper than paying for hotels and meals. Any recommendations on either campgrounds or RV parks that are ok to stay at and reasonably close to Castrol? So far I've found the...

My name is Tristan Ransom, 2014 will be my first year racing with EMRA. I'm signed up for the school. Can I reserve RED 77?
