I just called Bob Lattimar. He is at the track and said practice is on. He and Pacific Raceways are separate so the comunication is not so good.
MXGRAMMY just posted that she contacted Pacific and they said there is no practice. Sorry but that is wrong.

There is Practice Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

I just got confirmation as well and was advised that practice is 9 to 9 today and the schedule for the weekend is posted at the track.

My boss doesn't understand why i need to get off work early today.

Sorry about giving the wrong information. I called because we did not want to show up only to find gates closed.

Does any one have any information on any races at Pacific for this summer?

Can anyone tell us about Bob Lattimar?

Pacific Raceways website just added a little more information then what was there 2 hours ago. Hopefully race schedule will be posted soon.

I went to the track this afternoon. I got there intending to ride but it was starting to get muddy and rain. I'm a mud wuss. The track looks cool. The new rythym section, where the old double double after the tunnel, is kinda weird. The rest of the track looks great.

Got pictures of the new track and a short vid of what Drew called the whoops section. They are about 4+ feet tall right now and spaced pretty close together.

Weather in the afternoon pretty much sucked, but it was good for mud practice. Track is pretty much backwards from opening this season. See the video at: Pacific Raceways Video

I'll post some pic's too. Hard to tell much different in the photos from last layout tho.

Any more videos of the track? Does anyone know if they will do any work to the track over the next week?

Went to the schedule that is now posted on Pacific's website and it does not define which is a race day versus practice days. They all look like practice days. Are there going to be any races at the track?

yes should be races starting in about 2 weeks.

this is good news.i have forest service duty this weekend but will be there on monday.thanks for updates.

I'm going to try make this weekend also.

Man, I thought having to avoid that black irrigation pipe was tough. Now I am going to have to avoid a BIG red arrow on the backside of the finish line. At least they could have put it on the other side so hopefully my competition would run into it before I do and I could pass them before they made it to the finish line. What good does it do if they hit it after the finish line; the race is over and I still get last

40.00 dollars all day is that open practice like riverdale or are you going to split them up into classes, even Ted does'nt charge 40.00 if we have to travel I guess we will before I will give that much up thats got to be the most in the nation

I like the new layout, and think it will only get better with Lance running the track. To bad it was raining yesterday. The track looks way better than it used to be. Something for everyone, and I don't think you'll see so many injuries as in the past.

Sydney really likes the new layout.

im confused with prices so how much is it just for a regular day of practice from 10-4? it looks like $30 if im reading right which is ridiculous if its true
