[2010] Two Days of Turri at Toyland - April 10-11

Post by Richy Carrasco » Sun Feb 07, 2010 4:01 am

Two days of Super GS at Turri Road Central Coast!
April 10-11 2010
San Luis Obispo, California

The Turri Road venue has a crest that allows racing events to take place in both directions simultaneously. The two day event will feature both giant slalom and downhill racing. Two days of fast racing on challenging courses. Racers can expect courses/runs to be approx. one minute in length – some of the longest, fastest GS racing ever.

Saturday -- Single lane GS (site of the Worlds 2004 & Nationals 2008 – speeds of 45mph were clocked). Thunderdome ramp start, 3-4 timed runs for each racer. Downhill event will be run on the opposite end of the road.

Sunday – Single lane GS using the opposite side of the road from day one – featuring a 30mph hairpin turn with a few more gates after that! Thunderdome ramp start, 3-4 timed runs for each racer. Downhill event will be run on the opposite end of the road.

Entry fee -- $100 covers entry to all events (downhill and slalom). Advance registration is required and fee will increase after April 1. Racer signup will be online at ncdsa.com contest calendar with paypal link for fee payment. This event is fully permitted and insured. Ranking with ISSA sanctioning application in process.

All paid racers are invited to camp at Toyland free of charge -- BYO food, drinks and supplies as needed. Helmets required for all and slider gloves also for downhill events. Check in at Toyland begins on Friday evening.

Initial sponsors include - Toyland Ranch, Sk8Kings, Abec-11, Gravity, Tactis and more to be announced as confirmed.

The legendary Toyland Ranch and skatepark will be the racer HQ and party location with live bands, bbq and more after racing events.

Downhill racers (and those wishing to camp) should contact Jonny Miller prior to registering for details - email: centralcoastsk8school@yahoo.com

Turri Road has been used for some classic events over the last few years in racing. Went back through the archives to pull out a few pics from 2008 here which show both sides of the venue we will be running on for the Two Days of Turrri. The countryside will still be green and awesome looking when we are there in April!

Racers, all Racers who intend on participating in Turri if you are serious about attending sign up and we need to get your fees in as soon as possible. There are alot of bills that need to be taken care of so that we can pull this off. Again this is a permitted race and will probably be the fastest GS of the year! Sign up at NCDSA. Thanks.........

For those of you who haven't yet had the unique opportunity to hang at Jonny Miller's Toyland Ranch and Skatepark -- the Two Days of Turri event will be your chance. Toyland will be the event headquarters, party location and racer campground for the weekend -- and is sure to offer all the fun you can handle.

In fact, Toyland was recently featured on MTV's "The Buried Life" as the venue for the "most badass party" . . . see for yourself:
