Congrats for FLAMRA first race!

I'd just like to be one of the first to congratulate Walter, Sabrina, and Fernando on an excellent first race for FLAMRA. You guys certainly had a few problems pop up, but you handled it quickly and professionaly. I don't think I heard one complaint all day!

I had a great time, thanks. Can't wait until the next round.

I think I'm still wired from all the Red Bull!

I also wanted to say thanks. Like bill said aside from a few growing pains things worked out well. I had a great time and I'm looking forward to the next race.

I also wanted to say thanks to Steve and Chuck for all the hard work. Those guys worked really hard all day to make it happen.

Thank All!!!

I had a blast!!! Loved the DJ (wish at least once a month we would have him on saturday nighs) and all the atmosphere was super cool... (well, there was some confusion in the begining, but all the problems were solved very quickly) Good job guys!!!! Everyone was very friendly and suportive.... Im extremely happy and impressed that our little Opa Locka track can host this kind of event.

I will check.

I’m very happy to announce our first event has been a absolute success, I could never imagine it could come up that good, the weather helped with a beautiful shiny (a little bit hot) day. Most of the competitors showed up early to set up a paddock that looked like AMA, red bull set us up with all their cool stuff like flat screens with Xbox 360 to play moto GP, those huge umbrellas, tables, the world famous red bull arch, the DJ who played awesome music all day, and of course plenty of free red bull for everybody.
After some delay practices started and we could see there was great races coming, the class flow in and out the track wasn’t as smooth as we’d like because we could only got to work 12 out of the 50 transponders so we had to stop everybody exiting the track to remove their transponder and zip tie it to a bike running the next session, all this took us time, work and about a ton of zip ties but everything was worth it, everybody was happy you could see people dancing to the beat of the fabulous music.

Mini races started with the kids, they put on a great show, by this time spectators had crowded the whole facility, everybody was cheering and yelling, a lot of spectators could not believe kids that young are able to race bikes (we have Gaby 4 and Dylan 6 y/o). Race is over and everyone is smiling spectators and riders.
The rest of the mini classes ran smooth and also offered some interesting battles.
Then the supermotos got everybody’s attention as soon as they started their engines, we saw a rider stall his bike at the start line and another one go over the bars on turn 5 trying not to hit the rear wheel of the bike ahead of him.
Finally the race you should not miss, the “SHOOT OUT” where everything goes, the fastest riders not matter what they ride, after an elbow to elbow battle checkered flag saw 2 SM fallowed by a mini all of them where so close. All three rode their machines straight to the podium where 3 ice cold bottles were waiting for the ultimate winners, a lot of people got splashed, some ran away but all of us definitely had a blast.

Thanks Walter and Sabryna!And Congratulations!!!

Yes, that was a good battle. I had more fun fighting for 4th in that race than I did getting 2nd in the Spec class!
