I'm just glad you don't have any strong feelings about the subject, Joe!!!
By the way, I'm a big Chevy guy too, but I'm about to jump off the cliff, sell my Silverado and buy a diesel extended Ford van...

I think the right marketing approach could help the 100 miler a lot. Does anyone have any hooks into the industry, i.e., Tom Webb or some of the big names in the dirt bike media industry? I think we should pitch it to them and some of the bigger names in the pro rider ranks to increase interest. Having big names and major mag coverage could raise the 100 miler to the next level. I have personally pitched the race to a buddy of mine, Mark Hausbach, who is a regional Kawasaki Motor Company rep and is well known and respected in the industry. I've known him and raced with him for years. I invited him to come out and to pitch it to the KMC riders. I don't know if the 10o miler could ever reach LMS status, but I think it could be a major event, if we could get the right folks interested... Howie

HHR has been a great place to have the 100 miler . Lots of good trail, great owners, easy parking. Do you think the riders will keep coming back to the same place every year ???????

I found a very good rebuilder or a very good con sounds almost too good new rebuild in by friday. Homer spent time riding with soon to be this years national champ Cody Webb and Ron Commo yesterday he said he road every section they did except one only Webb he didnt comment about cleaning them.
Going through Wyoming on the way out was amazing great terrain whole state for trials enduro extreme enduro whatever.
Bob we might postpone till 13th or 20th dont know yet

They are starting to tear down the factory in Fenton where these trucks were built, so if I was you, I would avoid a Dodge. Sad news indeed.
But I'm a Chevy fan, and I hate Fords pretty much equally. A buddy of mine that I graduated with back in 1984 immediately started out working for a Chevy dealer, and he is still there. My driveway includes Chevy's exclusively now because I can call him any time I need help, and he usually has the answer, as well as access to all the special tools you need to work on Chevy's. I'm sure this forum is also visited by similar Ford and Mopar lovers, and that's cool. It's just like the never ending debate about which color bike to ride: Red, Orange, Blue, Yellow, Green, that "other" red, and so on.
Find a Dodge guy and I'm sure he will tell you all sorts of good stuff about Hemis. Talk to a guy like me, and I'll tell you I would rather go in for a root canal with no novacaine than spend a minute working on a Dodge, but I'd rather do that than spend a minute working on a Ford. I think there have been a lot of suicides involved with people trying to work on Fords. It's just something I refuse to do. I worked on my Grandma's LTD one time back in like 1982, and I decided that if I ever had to do that again, I would jump off the nearest cliff. And that was just a water pump, I think.
And if you take any of this seriously, have no sense of humor, and don't realize I am kidding, I have 3,000 acres of ocean front property just outside of Phoenix for sale. Call me.

PS: I think the MHSC decision to start using Moto Tally scoring is the BEST decision I have seen since the first time I ran an MHSC race back in 1997. FINALLY, some decent scoring and TIMELY posting of said scores.
I know, we don't race any more so my opinion means nothing, but that's how I feel.
Peace and I am OUT.

Why are we chatting about the Missouri Haresramble Series Championship on the Hillbilly Gran Prix website.
Does anything else need to be said? Time for the MHSC powers that be to get some CAJONES and stop beating around the bush. Get your own CHAT BOARD going and stop being a bunch of babies about it. This goes back to, I don't know, about 2001 or 2002 when Steve Weible finally gave up on ChatRats. Anyone that's been around that long know what I am talking about.
Can't wait until we can afford to get back out and ride like the good ole days. Things might be getting a little better, but we are still broke. Congrats to everyone still able to ride/race, but I think it's time for the BS you know what kissing to end and for the MHSC to get it's own chatboard, period.
Peace.

It should have everything that the Hillbilly site and Forward Motion site have. The MHSC is considered the premier racing series in our area but the scoring and website have been in the dark ages for quite a while now.

mgrumke has a very valid point. I had no idea the race at Marceline was re-scheduled for Aug. 22 until I read it on this forum. It should of been on the MHSC site the minute it was setup. Hope the MHSC site finds a cure for the STD.

it has an std. working on a cure.  but in all seriousness, its just a struggle getting a few peeps together with 50-60 hour work weeks/families/lives/wives/hectic schedules to get it straight. Soon it will be fix my friend. soon. but while we are on this subject. what is it everyone wants from the site? what is it everyone would like to see more of on the site? what is it? polls? interviews?
A way for interested parties to login and communicate. Whether that be riders on a simple forum or discussion board and/or promoters with the ability to easily get updates online can assist with growth in the series.
Seems odd to me that folks use a address other than the Misouri Hare scrambles address as a primary online information source. This says something, not exactly sure what but something.

I'm looking at buying a 2007 dodge ram. The truck I'm looking at has a 5.7 2 mode Hybrid hemi. Didn't know they made such a motor, I know the 5.7 hemi is a good motor, but? So does anyone know anything about a Hybrid hemi motor, seen, read, talked too anyone, or even owned or driven one? Thanks.
