Neil had a couple good runs, Terry, Brad, Dayton and Jordan all did really well. The course sat and sunday would start to get pretty rough towards the end of the day. The top of the full course was super bumpy and slick, turbo sleds were having trouble hooking up. Turcotte ran faster on his stock 800 than the TSS Cat he borrowed for mod.

Oh man where do I even begin? This event was almost catastrophic IMO. Way too many allowed to enter, way too many class entries allowed per rider, strayed from the original goal of putting sport growth(semi pro) first. I feel I personally let a ton of people down. That being said, we have already began revamping and planning for 16 and guarantee it will be 100x better. I am in contact with RMSHA and ISR overly frequently and with my dedicated board you will all be impressed with the coming restructuring. Thanks for your support, this race was eye opening.

Biggest thing, is with so many other hillclimbs shut down ect, all the extra people came, that would mabe have done a different one close to home

At least from what I heard

I wondered which route the course took.
I ski'd and boarded the hell out of that hill for 10 years when I lived there and that hill under the green chair is pretty steep near the top and usually icy as hell. Helluva ride for a guy to do under a minute!
Looked like a lot of fun. Always talked with my buddies when we were punk kids about sneaking up the back way from my house up to the hill and ripping around after the ski season closed. Did it a couple times on bikes and quads in the summer but got chased off the mountain pretty quick usually lol.

I wouldn't say that at all, I think you did the best with the hand you were dealt. This coming from a guy silently taking photos all weekend, from the voices I heard It was a blast all around with some carnage to boot :)

Thanks guys, I was stuck in the timing shack all weekend so I missed all the action outside of the start line but I can say for sure the criticism wasn't taken lightly or personally. There were a lot of issues and people brought them forward and they're all being worked on and some have already been corrected for next year. Everyone can expect some large and smaller changes to come learned both from this event and my ongoing interactions with both RMSHA and ISR that will really step things up and ensure a better flow and better communication at events for 2016 that will greatly improve all things from racer and fan stanpoints to club/community/sponsor/venue involvement. Super excited for 2016 and hope those who were disappointed with the event give it another shot and those who were stoked should be even more pumped this season.

if you can consistently turn in times like those against experienced racers, you should have no trouble getting sponsored to run the circuit dude.

those "I know Maxwell" shirts many#'s was making could sell like hotcakes.
