Magnum Opus RallyMoto, Newberry MI

This stuff looks like a hoot. I always follow the Sandblast thread. I put myself down as a NASA tire kicker....

Tubliss is completely legal, it relies on air pressure unlike a bib mousse

New RallyMoto rules, posted yesterday, clarify this. Mechanical and pneumatic rim lock systems are allowed.

I want to sign up but cant figure out how. Can someone post the link? I keep getting directed to face book but don't see how that works.

Did you log in to the nasa site not the event site? Then go to the register tab and should be straight toward from there.

Thank's.. I'm in.

I need to redeem myself after "Sandblast". What was I thinking?

520# moto plus 250# rider and gear in dry sand. What could go wrong?

The Michigan roads will better suit the beast.

I would like to thank each of you for your support of Rally Moto and Bill Westrick my clerk of the course for pushing me to add this for the 2014 event.

We have been getting great repsonse on early sign up but have a couple of people who have paid with a spouse or friends name. Please email me directly if you do not see that you are marked paid and who would have paid for the entry fee. tmaskus@up.net ( Tim )

Yeah, you'll like it a lot better here in Michigan. Hardly any sand.

Thanks for your encouragement? I lived/rode the U.P. for 17 years. Have you ever ridden the prehistoric S.C. beach? Big diff. I'll be fine.

Where at in the UP did you live ? I also see you lie in Tenn now. I have a brother ( Originally from the UP ) that lives in Dandridge NE of you .

Kinda' like the beaches around Whitefish point. Not that I would ride them as it is illegal, but they look quite similar

Wildcat road that runs from WFP and to the east has some sand.:eek1

Ahhhhhh.....14.5hrs from me! I really want to do this though......

only 14.5 hours thats nothing just a short drive. We left sandblast at 10am and did not get home till just after 4am and I had to go to work at 8:30am too. That was a long hard day at work, the kids there were a pain in the ass too. Just get a co-driver to help out with some of the driving, or at least to keep you awake.

Marquette, Negaunee, Three lakes, L'anse. 1980 thru. 1997. I was the head fire/arson investigator for the U.P., retired in 97. Moved to the Smokies for the roads and weather.

I know I can't pull it off this year, but maybe next year we can truck / trailer pool out since we're close.

Just a quick reminder that early entry ends at midnight March 31st.

Like Bill said.. Last week for early registration. Right now the cars are winning the early registration. Dont let the cars win :)

Up to 26 competitors with more coming. Might hit 30 by tomorrow night.. Dont miss out on the eary registration discount. Thnak you for supporting Magnum Opus Rally - Tim

Less than 5 hours remain for early registration cutoff. Reminder that payments must be made by Midnight to qualify !!! ( Up to 31 )
