We’re looking to update the “Racers” page.
We would like to upgrade the “Racers” page of our site with current photos and mini bios. If anyone has a picture of themselves out on the track that they would like to add to this page please email it to me along with your name (or nickname), home town and a short blurb about your scooter or moped. For racers already on this page, if you want to send an updated photo or whatever please do so. If you don’t have a photo of yourself racing then send a related photo of you or your race bike. The only qualification to get on this page is that you must have at least one race under your belt.
Check out some great pic’s of PSRA in action on Flickr…
Thanks to Mr. Allen for posting these great pictures.
Happy New Year! The 2011 race season is here!
Ok maybe it’s not quite here yet, but soon baby soon. In the next couple of months we will be putting together the schedules for the 2011 Cup Series and local racing in your area. Check back soon to see further updates on this exciting new season. In the mean time, now is the time to be tweaking out your race scoot and doing any major rebuilds that need to be done.
If you’re jonzing to get out on your race scoot and can’t wait for the 2011 season to begin there are still three Winter Series races left at PGP; January 16, February 20 and March 20. Check out PGP under the Tracks heading.
Attention new racers!
Now is the time to put together a race scoot or moped. The 2011 race season will be here before you know it. We want to see lots of new faces out out on the track next year. Check out our FAQ Page for newbie racers, buy an old set of leathers off Craig’s List and get ready for a great season of racing in 2011!
PSRA gets a new logo for Christmas…
Many thanks go out to Morgan Muir for providing his creative design services. We look forward to using our new logo for race banners, stickers, t-shirts and misc shwag. (C) PSRA Intellectual Property now!
Happy Holidays everyone!
Christmas is almost here. Be sure to ask Santa for that cylinder kit or disc brake for your race scoot. New Year’s resolution…make it out to all the PSRA Cup Events this year. Soon the days will be getting longer and the track surface will be getting warmer. See you in 2011!
PSRA racer Brian Nogi making a big impression at PGP.
We’ve all given our heads a scratch as Brian passes us on his automatic Honda Elite. Now the Supermoto boys at PGP are doing the same thing. Check out this recent article on him here. It just goes to show that when it comes to engine size, it’s the skills that pay the bills. Way to take scooter racing to a new level Brian!
2010 Season a Wrap!
The 2010 season officially wrapped up with the last cup race at Pat’s Acres in Portland. It was a gorgeous weekend with clear skies, colourful leaves and fast action on the track.

Cheers from PSRA

Spectators likely… around $5
Nope we don’t see a penny of any
of it, it all goes to the track.
If you have never raced or
watched racing keep in mind there is really nothing there so bring
everything with you including Water (you will sweat even on cold
day…well unless you are joy riding) and Food.
Spectators, It’s
not a bad idea to bring something to sit on (good advice for riders
too).
Imagine spending a day in a parking lot in the middle of
nowhere and plan accordingly.
See you there. Bring your friends!
PIR/AHRMA event is go!
On May 1st 2010 the PSRA is going to hit PIR…Yep the big track!
It will be a big crowd, non points even but with luck and a good turnout this will be just the beginning!
Patrick has been working hard on this one, so book the time off now and plan on being there.
For more info check out Patrick’s forum post: PSRA@PIR
