Stray Kats Racing will be hosting not just one but two MATTS
events in Cordova, Illinois the weekend of July 21st and 22nd. The
previously postponed Barstow 20K TT will now be held on Saturday, July 21st
along with the Dr. Craig Schultz Memorial 40K TT being held the following day,
Sunday, July 22nd.
Both races will be
held on the same "pan flat" course with the 20K being raced in one
direction with no turn around. I like that idea...something different for
MATTS! "Mr. Speed" will now have a chance to set the course record
for this 20K since he already holds the 40K course record at 52:01.04.
However, between
the course description and
course map it's a bit confusing which way they are going to run the race. I'm
guessing it will start at the 40K turnaround with the finish line being back in
Cordova. How else are you going to make a right turn since there's only one
turn on this course? If they do that, how many people will be late for their
start time when it's 13 miles from the Cordova Civic Center to the starting
line? Especially, when you consider the fact that, the MATTS Officials have been
holding people accountable for their late starts this year. I also don't think
the promoter is going to want all the racers parking on the side of the road
near the start line...that might...no, it will cause an issue.
