Any info on the fontana dam jam?

[manimal]

i'm not going to be able to make the windrock or etsu race this month so i'd like to hit the dam jam but i can't find any info on which days have which races. i want to race dh and ds. the NORBA site is worthless for info and none of the local sites have any solid info.

i need to know soon so i can ask off. also.....for sugar, which day is for dh?

[tammy]

The Dam Jam dates are July 30 - August 1. Normally the www.appalachianmtb.com site has info, but it appears to be kind of screwy up right now, and is only giving last year's results rather than current race info :rolleyes:

[manimal]

anybody know what it's been in the past? day 1 -XC, day 2 -DS, day 3 -DH? i've got to ask off from work soon or i'll miss out on this one too. :eek:

I think I will try to make it to do photoing and stuff for sure, they had a badass DS course last time I was there, big jumps that people were actually launching instead of rolling.

In the past it's always been DH and DS on saturday and XC on sunday.

Sugar DH is on Saturday registration is from 8-9 am

I've got a blank entry form (for sugar) i can scan and send to anyone who needs it although you might be able to dowload it from their site

so what happens on friday?

Hey, Claude from fontana was in the shop fri. and said there will not be DS. DH and XC only. They had to build wells on the ds course and there was nowhere else to build a course.

[manimal]

crap! ....so what does the DH consist of? same course as the icycle?

Yup. Too bad about the DS.

[Mikedsx]

I would assume it's the same course.

[manimal]
