The folks over at racemtbikes.com have announced their Prairie City Race Series (PCRS) schedule for Spring 2007. There will be twelve weeknight XC races in this grassroots series (just like last year), with your ten best races counting towards your overall points series total. Every race has a different course design, but all of them consist of several laps (depending on skill) of two to four miles in length.This season brings a few new rules to the series: mandatory upgrades, new point system for class changes and few category changes.
The dates for this year's Spring series are:
- APRIL: 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th
- MAY: 2nd, 9th, (NO RACE the 16th!) 23rd, 30th
- JUNE: 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th
- JULY: BBQ & Awards - (TBD)
The races are held at Prairie City Off Highway Vehicle Park [ MAP ] near Folsom, CA (just east of Sacramento on Hwy 50). Prairie City OHV is a off-roads motorsports (i.e. Motocross) mecca where the annual Hang Town Motorcycle Races are held. You race over the same enduro style course, with numerous steep, short climbs and quick descents on the hardpack trail. Check out the race gallery photos for a better idea of the course conditions. Better yet, check out last year's archives and see GPS maps of the actual courses.
