Off to a good start!

Well, I'm pretty happy with the start of the CCS boards.  I figured that there would be interest!  

Does anyone know of any other ways I can get the word out to CCS racers?

i got my notice through the fzr400 list.  has anyone posted on the near list (lrrs/ccs-ne region)?

this board was a great idea.

I posted to the FZR list, and to the WERA board, but am not a member of the lrrs or ccs-ne lists.  Feel free to post information there.

Shawn, you could ask CCS if they will put a snippet and a link on their website. Also to mention it in their next newsletter. I can't see why they wouldn't want to help the cause. Anything that may generate more interest in their series can't hurt.

Yup, I already sent an email to Kevin Elliott, waiting for a response.  I think that he is open to the idea, because I spoke to him prior to opening up the boards, and he seemed happy to see someone do it.

I took your post to the race@micapeak list and forwarded it to the NEAR (New England Area Racing) List

I'm assuming that this board is not officially backed by CCS or FUSA but I think you should contact them and have them make mention of the board in their next mailing that goes to all licensed riders.

gee maybe I should read what others have posted before I share my great wealth of knowledge

I'll email Michael, Kevin, and Karin, I know them, b/c I've been writing the racereports and taking the photos for the ccsraging.com site.  I'll hype it up and help the cause.

In time.

First off, you need controversy.  Everything's running pretty smooth, so there's no big push to change.

Now, if people start bitching about the fact that the ROC is based on only one race, where it would be better served to be more based on the points that people have earned all year, not a strong motor at the end, then you'll get folks fighting to join.

On top of that, you need a BBS scapegoat.  Someone you can blame everything on when everything goes to hell.

And lastly, you'll need celebreties.  Pro riders don't have time, and most of them probably can't type to save their life, so aim low.  A nice B- or C+ will do.

Don't worry.  After all, you've built it, now just wait for them to come.
