TPBRA like other race organizations currently formed will sanction races throughout the state. If anyone is interested in more information please contact info@tpbra.com

I am pleased to announce the new board of directors for TPBRA
Dan Skemp-President
Jonathan Cuero- Vice President
Stuart Siroky- Treasurer
Paul St Pierre- Secrectary
Jerry Pierce- Board of Director

All board members are now official and voted in. Over the course of the next few weeks we will have more announcements coming. We are very excited to have our board in place with representation from Houston, Austin, DFW and Lubbock. Each member brings to the table a unique asset that will help ensure the future of pocket bike racing in the state of Texas.
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome everyone to the Texas Pocket Bike Racing Association team!

Any Texas based race track is welcome to join the TPBRA. The more tracks/riders the better!

The TPBRA is also trying to keep the cost of racing and requirements as low as possible. For example, it isn't required for the local club members to be members of the TPBRA, even to race at the local sanctioned TPBRA race! Of course there are benefits of being a member, and those will be detailed as we go forward (examples could be: lower race fees, able to be crowned the state champion in your respective class, etc!).

As Dan stated, if your local track is interested, please shoot an email to info@tpbra.com.

We have not been able to find a place in the Dallas area that will let us race/ride on a regular basis but we do race in the Austin, Houston and San Antonio areas. Check out the website for info

Re: Texas Pocket Bike Racing Association

We do have practice 7pm-10pm on the first Fri. of every month at iron rock in Austin and the 1st and 3rd monday of every month at kart runco in San Antonio.

As for racing you need safety gear. Helmet, glove, shoes that cover the ankle, knee and elbow protection. Leathers are recommended.

you can get adobe reader for free from here

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

I also put a link on the site to get acrobat reader.

If you don't have all the safety gear let me know I am sure we can get you set up.

I know Iron Rock Raceway in Austin has a PB race the first Friday of every month. Have yet to attend it, but the track and facilities are bad ***!

Re: Texas Pocket Bike Racing Association

Thumper is a general term for a single cylinder engine motorcycle. most of the times on these forums it refers to a mini motard.
