    Default Record Trial, Flint MI, Oct. 8, 9. Backup dates Oct. 15, 16 & 29, 30.

    We have postponed our Sept. 24, 25th event due to weeds at the site, we're hoping the colder weather will kill them off, check here for updates.

    All IMPBA classes for SAW and 1/3rd Oval, 8am-dark. Come and go any time, flat $25 to register, run as often as time permits.

    We will cancel and go to the backup date by 6pm on Thursday, Oct. 6th if the weather looks questionable. Check here for updates.

    Map of Thread Lake, we're at the north end of Orville St., north of McKinley Park:

    I believe it's "Coontail" which we haven't seen there yet, all along the front straight.

    They're still a problem so we're going to plan for Oct. 15, 16th hoping they die off.

    Keep your fingers crossed for the 29/30th!

    Wonder if this is a result of the pond draining.

    It looks like the weeds have died off quite a bit in the past couple weeks and the long range forcast looks good so we are a GO for this weekend.

    See ya there.

    Unfortunately I've come down with Covid so we won't be able to run this weekend, we're planning for Nov. 5, 6th subject to weather.

    Yup. Sounds about par for the course. I had a 102 fever for two days straight, just like you. Knocked me on my butt. Kids had fevers too, but recovered a lot quicker than I did. Hope you feel better!
