CMRA Kicks Off Its 2015 Season This Weekend at MSR Houston

This coming weekend, February 13-15, 2015, the Central Motorcycle Roadracing Association (CMRA) will be tearing up the track at MSR Houston in Angleton, Texas. The track is located 13 miles south of Highway 6 off Highway 288. MSR Houston is a 17-turn, 2.38 mile full road course.

The weekend activities begin at 7:00 a.m. Friday with a CMRA License school and a full day CMRA racer practice. Registration opens for all activities at 6:30 a.m.

Saturday’s schedule begins with a full slate of Mini and Lightweight Sprint races, including the Four81 Motos Grom Challenge, Altus Lawton Motorsports E Superstock and Ultra-Lightweight GP, and Rainbow Sox Racing Junior Motard class for the youngest racers, ages 8-12 years old. The opening round of Ultra-Lightweight Endurance with a 2-hour race is then followed by the first round of CMRA Championship Endurance Series, a 4-hour race, which begins promptly at 1:15 p.m. A trophy presentation and trackside racer/spectator Meet and Greet party is a welcome finish to the full day of racing.

Sunday’s schedule is jam-packed with a full day’s worth of competitive Big Bike sprint races. Among the exciting classes not to be missed is the Breast Cancer Research Foundation / P1 Racing Formula 1 Expert class. In addition to a cash purse totaling $14,000 paid out to the top Formula 1 Expert finishers over the course of the 2015 season, a portion of each entry fee is donated to Breast Cancer Research. A few of the other weekend purse paying classes include, 212Decals.com – A Superbike Expert ($150), South Central Race Center C Superstock ($185) and Leather and Lace Racing Leathers Repair ($150).
