Going to have another Racing type gtg on April 18th 2009 being the first one was such a fun experience and got to meet a bunch of new faces and introduce them to cant racing. North Central Ohio, hour north of Columbus, hour south of Cleveland. 10AM till we are wore out again.
Will be racing 3 cuts hot start over wood in 8x8 and 10x10 and then 1 cut racing in 30"+ wood if one so desires. The 3 cut racing has to be 3 cookies with in 6 inches of wood without cut outs or across the 6" line.
There will be a new class added this year. Vintage chainsaws introduced 1979 or before. The rest of the classes remain the same.
0-51, 0-65, 0-81, 0-100, 100+, 0-40cc top handle only, Vintage saws 79 and before. Piped saw classes will be made up to fit the ones that show up.
Glad to see you get it linked to the calendar. Now, the week proceeding the linked event, it will be announced automatically on the front page of the Forestry Forum. :)

The landowner of primary location has a scheduling conflict with April 18th right now.
Primary location is where the big woods is stored.
