Raced at Redbud
Saturday ,
After raining
fairly hard for
a couple
hours Saturday
night packed up
and headed south
to Crossroads
for Sundays
race. Track
was fantastic as
normal and ruts
were
supreme. Great
racing , good
food and clean
showers ! May

Just wanted to thank the
Crossroads crew for a good day at
the races. Kynon loved the rutted
corners! I hadn't seen him do that
well on a well rutted track for a
while, even though we've turned into
somewhat part-time racers! lol It
was even his first race on his Honda
150R and he loved it. I never heard
him have one complaint about the
track all day. At intermission I
even heard him say that he hoped
that Ray didn't take the ruts out of
the corners.
Thanks again Ray and Nadine!

Thanks again for a GREAT day! We
almost forgot how much fun we have
at your place! We will definitely
try and make a few more races this
year. As I've said before - you and
Ray put on a first class program!
And get that pit bike track prepped
- the boys drove me nuts at the
truck ALL day!

Finally got a chance to head down to this track
yesterday with a buddy. Did not get to race, long story, But the track
was awesome. It does get real rough and will keep you on your game. The
clay jump faces do get dryed out, of course 20mph wind gusts and high
80's did not help, but overall the track stayed nice. This track
developed horseshoe ruts and breaking bumps, from hell, multi lines in
corners. My bud did not care to much for the break bumps going down the
hills but hell everyone raced the same track its mx. This track is a
true outdoor natural terrain track with safe jumps and options and a
little old school mix. We were impressed with how the program is run
there, Quads first then rework the track for the
bikes
the rest of the day, and the program runs and clicks the rest of the day
pretty smooth. Hats off to the promoters and crew for a fine race. Check
this track out sometime we will be back.

I wanted to
say "thanks" to Nadine & Ray for holding practice
over the weekend. Even though the wind was a "bit"
cool, they are doing a awesome job. It's great to
see the track actually changing up and improving,
rather than the same ole' stuff year after year, as
some tracks do. Keep up the good work!! Glad to
have a local track open, along with a crew that
always wants to make it better for the racers.
Thanks again!
ya thanks alot the track was awesome this week end
landon bayley
went to CRMX today along with aaron, hayden,
troy, james p and the faegans just name a few. it wasnt a big turnout,
but ok. the track was incredible, it did get a little rough but not
insanely bad as it did earlier this year. to everyone at the track great
job on all the work you have done. i look forward to coming back next
year. ytee 329
I echo what Brad said
about the track. It was the best track I've ever seen or ridden on at
Crossroads. I don't think that they even watered the track at all
yesterday and there wasn't any dust!
Even though my results weren't great I still felt like I had a great
ride and felt really good about it being my last race. I cleared a
couple of jumps that I really hadn't completely cleared before. I felt
great on the bike and really enjoyed myself.
It was great way to end the year and my "racing career". I will still be
at the track next year I just won't be racing.
To the crew at Crossroads...GREAT JOB!

L8r,
Just wanted to say that I
really enjoyed the race at Crossroads Sunday. Had a
great 40+ race with Tony and Steve. They schooled me
as usual but I gave it the old 100%. There was a
real good turnout and all those who stayed home
because of the weather missed some primo dirt. It
rutted up real nice and had some great lines. I
finally jumped the uphill triple and it was
funnnnnnnnnnnn.
Thanks Nadine for the plaque
for Jess, I haven't been home yet but I will get it
to him Monday night. Thanks for you and Rays
hospitality, everytime we come to your track you
make us feel right at home.
My running buddy this weekend
Donnie Lewis and I had been to RedBud for VetFest
sat and stopped in Sunday on the way home. Some of
us really cant get
enough............................................................mx
that is.
It was good to meet Dean and
Jordan, hopefully Jess will be back to race Jordan
before long. Travis it was good to see you there
also.
Keep It Pinned
See You At The Races

Comment: From 50cc racers
Nadine: Just wanted to give you some feedback! What a great day! You
have an incredible facility! From the track itself to the bathrooms to
the pits - it was all top notch - and what a great bunch of people too.
We had a great day, the boys loved the track and the fact that they got
to run 5 good length laps.....that really allowed for some real "races"
to work themselves out. We thought it was going to be a little early
start - but it turned out to be worth getting up at 4 am to avoid
sitting through 21 motos twice just to ride 6 laps!!! We like the way
you have the kids morning program set up a lot. The pit bike track was a
hit too. We will definitely be back and will also spread the good word.
Keep
up the good work! My wife loved the fact that from the very nice grassy
infield, she could see everything from the starting gate to the far
corners very easily.
Hope things work out to be a great success for you all!!

Letters from the WEB
WOW! What a cool track! If you
ever raced here when it was called Planet X-treme then most of the track
will be somewhat familiar to you, but now it's been improved!
The track is long and technical but in my opinion very safe. I was
pooped after just 1 lap! Of course, I'm out of shape. But I even heard
some of the A riders commenting on the track's ability to wear them out
before the final lap.
I can't wait to go back!

We went Sunday and My son loves
the track. We got started a little late, but was still
done and out of there by five. No waiting around because
of so many motos.
About one track prep and you are done. Track stays
pretty nice.
Better be in shape, it is a long track with a few more
obstacle than most.
This track seems like its getting better
everytime I go, whether its more
sawdust, a new jump, or just changing a
jump a little. The new table top was a
lil soft still, but the work on the
double double before the finish table
was deff. a plus....Even though I wiped
out on that section it still felt alot
better.

I've been there, and its the
best run facility in that area. Great place.

Crossroads MX is a GREAT place to ride. Anyone here in driving distance
should stop on by at least once. Went there once, came back, and plan to
each chance I get. Very challenging track that wears you out, but is
fun. Great environment, great staff and track workers, and the best part
of all; SPLIT SCHEDULE. Quads are done racing by like 10-11am depending
on what's going on, then the bikes come on.
If you live in the area, make a stop on by sometime. Tell me if you are
b/c I'd be glad to meet up out there. I am not affiliated w/the track, I
have just been there a couple times, including last weekend, and
couldn't be happier w/the place.

We live just a few miles from
the track and we are really glad to have Nadine & Ray
running the track. They have really put a lot into it
and have really been working hard to keep it going. They
have had a low turnout which is sad after all the work
they have done. They are running races about every other
weekend so we enjoy not having to travel so far with the
gas prices. JOIN US!!! I think you will be glad you did.

I agree with Grannymx, I was
just at the track last night for the prepped track
practice and considering the low rainfall we've had
lately, the track was excellent. I really appreciate
their hard work and personally feel it's one of the best
track layouts in the state of Illinois. We all need to
remember that without good turnouts, the tracks we love
will all go away, so please try and support them as much
as possible! Thanks again to Ray and Nadine!!

Team Wilder, John #123 and Jess #711 were on our way
home from Millville and stopped in and raced June 10th
and had a great time. I liked the split format, we got
there at 10 and were back on the road at 4. The track
was fun and safe for a 43 yr old and a 14 yr old. Id
like to thank Troy Lea for providing a worship service
on sat and Ray and Nadine for including a worship
service. The first jump up the hill after the start had
a little kicker that would kick your rear end up a
little if you chopped your throttle and next time Ive
got to hit the uphill triple. I liked the washboard
whoops cause you just dont see many of them anymore.
Thanks Nadine/Ray for a great afternoon.
John Wilder #123 from Mason(TN that is)
MASON CRMX TRACK IS
AWESOME!! I love a track like that. wore me out but man that was safe
but super fast track for me. Nadine does a great job of trying to make
everyone happy. MY HAT IS OFF TO YOU FOLKS @ Crossroads MX!
