What do I Get for my Money?
Well the answer to this question is in constant evolution. What exactly does that mean? It means that over the next few months we will be talking with everyone, and everyone seems to be talking to us. We will have updates over the next few months adding to the mix of what will happen at this year’s events.In year’s past we have had pit bike races, skate ramps, club 93/94, Smith Goggle Upgrades, Vitamin Water Pit Party Challenge, Twin Air Filter Upgrades, Pit Bike Obstacle Courses, Kiddy Pools, Mud Volley Ball (on the start line), Tandem Races (Must supply your own blow up doll), DJs, Metal Bands, Costume Parties, and, well honestly there has been so much more but you get the idea. Let’s just say there is more than one reason the Stimilon Motocross Challenge is so well attended.
This event weekend is so much more than a race. And it has become so much more than who wins. It is a celebration, a kick off to Summer, and just a fun weekend to come ride and race your dirt bike.
This event is all about riding. As we used to say – more riding than you can handle! The reason we limit entries is so that you don’t loose laps to qualifiers or get sent home early. By capping classes we are turning away good money, but you don’t get screwed on laps. Everybody gets their time.
Riding, Riding, and More Riding
Everyone will get at least 10 minutes of practice and 4 motos (2 per class). Still not enough for you? You can race a 3rd or even 4th class for as low as $15 each (depending how early you pre register). Why do more than 2 classes? Many people sign up for additional classes just to get more track time, extra practice, or to learn the track before the motos that they actually care about. If you think about it – it just makes sense – get the riding time you want!Sunday there is additional riding if you think you can handle it – see below.
Vitamin Water Pit Party Challenge
We launched this concept with Vitamin Water in 2010. This is a free contest for all to enter. All you have to do is make your pit area an expression of what you think Stimilon is and can be. This can be as big or small as you want it to be – last year we had some very cool, yet simple ideas that won. We also had some elaborate ones that were incredible!All you have to do to enter is let us know that you want to be eligible and we will assign you a number card that needs to be displayed outside your pit area so the judges know who you are. But there is one rule – whatever you bring in, you must bring out – don’t leave your garbage for someone else to clean up. Thanks.
Set up is Friday, Judging is Saturday, and the winners are announced at the After Party Saturday night. Prizes include “several” cases of Vitamin Water each (we have multiple winners in multiple categories) and last year the “Best in Show” received 6 Vitamin Water branded Burton Snowboards. This is totally Free with your entry and last year we had some great pit areas. We have already gotten emails and calls of groups claiming they will win this year – so put your thinking caps on and start planning!
Pit Bikes
We allow you to bring and ride your pit vehicle all weekend – provided you act responsibly! Pit Bikes, mini three wheelers, golf carts, rhinos, motorized beer coolers (don’t laugh, its true) – you name it. We want you to have fun but please respect the rules and realize this is not a right but a privilege.You must register your pit vehicle by purchasing a vehicle pass and showing your driver’s license. Vehicle pass holder is responsible for the vehicle and anyone who drives it. If you or your buddy riding your bike acts like an idiot – you both leave. Every year we love to make one example early, so everyone gets it – please don’t be “that guy” and we will have a great weekend. All riders must wear a helmet at all times while operating vehicles.
Party, Party, Party
Friday Night – this is when it all starts. In years past we have had fireworks (unsanctioned), Pit Bike Obstacle Courses, Swimming, Volley Ball, impromptu pin the tail on the teenager, Beer Pong, Photo Shoots, DJs, and one rare instance of Brazilian Momba (Viva Brazil!).Saturday is the judging for the Pit Party Challenge (see above), as well as other festivities – oh yeah, and there is this race too…
Saturday night is the (actual) party – everything will begin after the racing is done. All we can say here is if you were there in year’s past, then you know. If you heard about it, well then this is your chance to be part of the magic. Bands, Beverages, Babes (bring your own babe), Police Escorts, Costumes, Waterslides, DJs, Mud Whale rides – we have something for everyone…
Last year proved that when everyone acts like adults and takes responsibility for them selves, we can all party like we remember. As always, we have new surprises in store for this year, so if you have confidence that Stimilon events are always a party, then know we are working on making it even better this time around.
*Hint – Bring a costume to wear Saturday night – it seems to be the fashion, plus the magazines seems to love it!
Hangover Ride Day - All Day Practice
Sunday – still want more riding time? Think you can handle it? Well we have a limited entry “Hangover Ride Day” set up for Sunday. Details will follow but only 200 practice passes will be sold. The goal is to let people come and go on and off the track as they please as 200 riders will find there grove just like at Rocky Hill or any other practice track. Worst-case scenario - we will break up into 4 practice groups allowing each group to be no more than 50 riders on the track for 15 minute intervals. But the way everyone wakes up late on Sunday anyway, we have not had a problem with people riding all day long. Anyway you look at it – we could charge a ton more and not limit entries and make bank – but you wouldn’t get the riding time you deserve – so take advantage of our generosity (it wont last). However, you can only buy a Hangover Ride Day pass with a race entry and once we sell all 200 it is closed! Hangover Ride Day Passes start for as little as $20 (depending on when you pre register) Hangover Ride Day is 10am to 3pm Sunday.Hangover ride day rule number one – no bikes start before 10am! If you are awake before that, you didn’t party hard enough with us Saturday night. So sleep in, the track will still be there.
Prizes
If you even have to ask about prizes, then you don’t know anything about Stimilon. We don’t mean to be cocky, but ask around – we got the goods! Thanks to unbelievable industry support we have some of the coolest stuff to give out. And with our demented minds always finding new ways to play robin hood, more than just the winners go home happy.But a word of warning here: Come to race, party and just have fun. Let the prizes be what they are – a bonus. We can’t tell you how many times we have seen riders walk away from other races bummed out because they didn’t get some stupid trophy. This event is more a celebration of comradery and riding then it is to see who wins.
