TPBRA President

San Antonio, TX going to see any TPBRA action?

Great! Someone from San Antonio has stuck his head up! Yes, San Antonio will be included. Just have to get some of you SA guys together to start racing.

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.

Do you race in Dallas Tx Around Garland/Richardson

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
www.tpbra.com

is there any class for fourstroke midbikes???

we have two classes
Pitbike up to 50cc 2-stroke and 90cc 4-stroke.

Thumper up to 65cc 2-stroke and 125cc 4-stroke.

sweet...i dont have the adobe reader ...what do i have to do to become a rider..ive never raced before but would like to get into it ...do i need any formal training???i practice in large parking lots but would like to actually see where i stand and how i can improve...and maybe in the future compete on large bikes...i noticew practice is i think 7-10 am on fri?? or sat?? at iron rock..well maybe someday soon i can get the moxie to make down(up) there

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

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.

all i really need is gloves and boots ...have the leathers and helmet(helmet is old and leathers have been down but still good) i am getting a new helmet soon...so no classes or training ...i mean i have been reading tons of riding tips and safety tips and going out and practicing them but have not had any formal training froma teacher...practice is free??? and racing fees depend on the track correct??.sounds like tons of fun saw the pics on the site too...way cool

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 ***!

Hi i got 2 super pocketbikes 110cc. whats a thumper?

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

Hello,how do i join tpbra my e-mail racerx6644@sbcglobal.net

U guys still alive :P!

We are still around we will be at Iron Rock this Friday night and out at the Katy track this weekend with TMGP.

Can i ask you guys which pocketbikes race in the TMGP series on a regular basis?

Are they blatas and polinis? Or just regular cags?

thanks in advance.

HI, Just moved to Houston, For some time now I have been thinking about the mini super bikes, Iwas a member of the SA, STSBA for years but now that I am in Houston it is all to clear that the road are unsafe.

and would like to get back to the track but getting a bit old for the 125-1000cc So I am looking at getting a X18 or 19 and moding it,

questions on thumpers, if I do get a 18 or 19 can I mod it with a two stroke water cool powerplant IE 80cc or 125cc rm,cr,kdx ? and still comp.
and in what class,
Also I have been looking and I can not find anything on mid and thumper class here in houston I see that you guys bring in the name of Gulf Coast which is close to me, but I have call the number they have listed and it is non working. I would realy like to start this but with the mid range 100-125cc size bikes not really into the really smaller sizes fun I am sure but mid range seems more real to me, but also brings in question of track size and speed.

Never the less if someone gould let me know who, where, and a list of riders in Houston I am in. and plan to put together a team and have a few sponcers lined up up cant take up the game with no place to play.

I could start my own in parking lots and recrute but not really what I am looking for, but it may be the case , at which point I would like to talk to you all about forming a new division with in Pocketbike for mid and thumper classes
Thanks for you time
feel free to call or email
