If you have any questions, PM me. This is a neat way to get involved in racing without buying a dedicated track bike!
The Superstreet class if for non-licensed riders only. Any racer possessing a valid roadracing license from any club is ineligible for this class. There are no trophies or season points for this class. A day license will be included in entry fees. The MRA adopted this class idea as a way to give sportbike riders and trackday enthusiasts an easy way to try out roadracing, without having to make a full commitment. Basically, if you can ride at a trackday you can race in the Superstreet class. Costs for entry are low compared to the other sprint classes, and bike prep is minimal. We hope this allows people to "get their feet wet" and see if roadracing is truly for them.
The Superstreet class is going to include a classroom session the day of the event. It is required that all participants are ready for the classroom/registration portion at 12:30pm sharp. It is also suggested that you show up to the track by 11:30am in order to unload your truck and set up your pits. All bikes must be unloaded and ready to go at 12:30pm. After the classroom/registration portion, we will go through bike tech which requires all bikes to be COLD. If you ride your bike to the track, allow adequate time for engine cooling. Any bike still hot will not pass tech due to us not being able to check coolant. There will NOT be time to unload and setup your bike after the classroom/registration period, so please be sure that you are 100% ready to go prior to 12:30pm. The classroom portion will be roughly 1 hour. After that, we will hold practice, practice starts and then the race.
Cost for the Superstreet class and race will be $100. You are also required to be an AMA member, which can be purchased the day of the event at an additional charge (current AMA membership price is $39 per year).
** Note that it is MUCH easier and faster to get an AMA membership online PRIOR to the school event - AND if you do it online they include a roadside benefit (ala AAA) with the membership. Just print a copy of the card and you're good to go! Click here to join:
