       As part of its 20th Anniversary, the U.S. Lawn Mower Racing Association is pleased to announce that the V-twin Shootout is now "The U.S. Open V-twin Shootout" and part of the U.S. open series.

The 2nd annual U.S. Open V-Twin Shootout will be held August 11th and 12th at the Vestaburg Kart Speedway in Vestaburg Michigan.  Check out  http://www.vestaburgkartspeedway.com/

"We are thrilled to be back at the 2nd annual V-twin shootout and to have the event part of the U.S. open points series" says event co-founder Ferris Hipolite, president of the Ithica Dirt Devils in MI (a USLMRA affiliated club)

The event will again be co-hosted by the Ithica Dirt Devils and the Western Ontario Outlaws."Its one you don't want to miss" said Co-Founder Ryan Kerr of the Western Ontario Outlaws (WOO).
All of the fastest v-twins around and some of the biggest names in mower racing will be there to mix it up for the 2012 U.S. Open V-Twin Shootout TITLE! It will be the largest display of FXT/Outlaw/Supermods ever assembled. All classes and machines are welcome!
"The event will be run basically the same as last year" added Ferris "and new this year will be the FXT and open twins competing for the V-Twin Shootout Cup. There are first place trophies and the same classes as last year. We may even add or subtract a class but they will be run on the same principles as last year " We will get everyone in a class where they can compete. Its the same as last year, all mowers are welcome not just the v-twins so come on out and join us!

This will be a part of the multi-race series (U.S. Open Series) that will end on Sept. 2nd in Delaware Ohio during the Stabil Nationals Weekend. http://www.letsmow.com/2011/11/announcment-of-the-the-u-s-open-lawn-mower-racing-series-from-u-s-open-co-chairs-lee-vine-kerry-evans/
"The real Upside is that this will draw a larger group of racers! Dave Freeman from Vestaburg is really excited about the Shootout and our group. "Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Bring your wife with you. Vestaburg is real close to Mt.Pleasant which has Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort. VERY nice hotel, spa, pool, restaurants. You dont even have to hit the gaming floor to have fun.

While thats all exciting our race budget barely gets us to an event and back home. Shoot our local racing is costing us t ot 400 a month in travel gas... Not easy making long trips no more. But is a way of life a passion. me n Jake has even considered just pulling his on a trailor behind the bike.LOL
