This should be a great race! Team Texas and the top riders from Austin, Houston, Lubbock, San Antonio and even top riders from the state of Oklahoma will be there. If you are anywhere near the state of Texas this is the race to attend! Never raced? We have a class for you to race in to get your feet wet.

Come to Lubbock Texas and support Pocketbike Racing and our new organization, TPBRA! This is the race to be at!

Dan did a great job on this Press release, and I think it sums up the series/sanctioning body very well so here it is for all you Internet viewers...

Hope to see you at the race!!! Mike

Good luck to everyone and I hope ya'll have a great event. Unfortunately, I have other commitments that weekend and won't be able to make it.

Maybe ya'll can fill in me on how it went the following weekend at the next TMGPS race in Denton. Jerry, Stuart hopefully I'll give you more competition there.

Hey Choon too bad you are going to miss it. From the sounds of it, this will be the biggest turn out for a pocket bike race so far.

Only one week to the first and best race series in Texas!!! Come out and sample West Texas hospitality and a great place to race. Trophies to 3rd place, and both race and gate prizes will be presented!!!

This promises to be a great race series and not one to miss!
